Headline says it all. The Tea Party clearly has failed to field a credible candidate. They need to win some statehouses and build a bench. Newt is a face saving way to not vote for Romney, even though he’s a worse candidate in every conceivable way.
Get ready to rationalize flip-flopping AND ethics charges. ;-)
In his last year in the House Newt had a lifetime 90+% rating from the American Conservative Union. Is the ACU also a RINO organization?
Some people here drive me nuts. You look at the candidates you have backed and it is list of some of the most unelectable insignificant people in recent American politics. If you can’t win it doesn’t make any difference how principled you are. If Newt or Mitt is the nominee I will gladly vote for them because we simply cannot survive another 4 years of OBama. Surround them with a solidly conservative legislature,and hope for the best. If you want to fall on your sword for the sake of principle and hand OBama 4 more years, then don’t come back here and complain as the Country swirls down the toilet.
