Newt has the momentum. We need to get behind the candidate that has the momentum to put Romney away, and stand up to the news media and Obama.
I do agree that we need to retire Obama, but I have great doubts that Gingrich would win. I keep thinking --
doing the same thing [GOP nomination history] and expecting a different result [GOP winning the election] is the definition of insanity. With Gingrich, the Grand OLD Party has the typical OLD, white-haired guy. It is just McCain-ish and Dole-ish with a bit more hair. Listen to the women calling the talk shows. They do not like him. That translates into a loss in November -- thus, confirming the definition of
insanity.
If you want to place Gingrich in with the GOP elite, then why is the GOP elite trying to ruin his campaign? If you want to place Gingrich in with the GOP elite, then you have to include Santorum (remember his part in the Arlen Specter issue...). That means there’s only one candidate outside this classification; that’s Ron Paul. Is that what you want?
Gingrich has what it takes to take on the MSM and Obama. The momentum is there. Either we embrace it or we may lose big come November. And even should we lose, I’d rather go down with a guy willing to fight rather one willing to embrace or nuance.
