Enquiring minds.......

If you are going to strike the king, better make it fatal... A lot of jerks out there burning bridges.

Hannity still has Newt on, but he also has Mitt on a lot too. But when I do see his show, he seems just have a Mitt slant going when talks about the campaign.

I have no idea who Alvin Toffler is, but Rev. Wright didn’t seem to hurt Obama’s election

Very few have even heard the name Rev. Wright, let alone know who he is.

Uhh..maybe he doesn’t want to see another four years of Obama.

Uhh...maybe he’s pushing the gay agenda.

Uhh...maybe he’s pushing the Morman agenda.

Thanks for posting this link. The story explains a lot about the Drudge/Romney love fest.

People simply aren’t talking about the fact that SnippyMcMittCare has a pantload of built in support from the log cabin/gay marriage types. Probably a major reason so many GOP elites are supporting him.

Drudge has had a 24/7 CONSTANT anti-Newt assault going on.

Matt Drudge: world's most powerful journalist

For politicians, the effect is akin to a needle injecting information into the media bloodstream. A positive story can give a shot of adrenaline to a flagging campaign. More commonly, negative information can be like a dose of poison being administered.

It has been Republicans who have most assiduously courted Drudge, a conservative populist who passionately opposes abortion and despises taxes. Research directors of the Republican National Committee have made pilgrimages to Miami to pay homage to Drudge.

A 2005 dinner at the fashionable Miami steakhouse Forge in which Tim Griffin, the outgoing RNC research director, introduced his successor Matt Rhoades to Drudge is already the stuff of political lore. Rhoades went on to become communications supremo to Mitt Romney, whose opponents in the 2008 presidential race noted frequently that negative stories about them appeared regularly on Drudge.

RINOs? Really? Neither of these two has ever been elected to public office nor have they run as Democrats or members of a different party.

We have a bunch of them here in Virginia who really are hard core Conservatives ~ McDonnell as Governor, Bolling as Lt. Governor, and various party officials including the state chairman.

They are locked to Romney's nether regions like poop on a window!

There are others around the country and not a one of them can logically be termed a RINO.

So, find another term ~ like maybe "people who disagree with me" or "people who disagree with the party base" ~

Everyone has a right to his opinion. Doesn’t mean others have to agree with it.

I call BS. He didn’t post any of the polls after Newt took the lead nationally or in FL. Has he posted about how Romney’s top advisors made millions lobbying for Freddie yet?

I’m done with Drudge.

That’s exactly what I think. Certainly expalins Ann Coulter.

It only started a few days ago. Basically as soon as Coulter really went off the deep end IMO.

If the most recent FL polls are to be believed then the pounding by Beck, Coulter, Drudge, et al is having its intended effect. Newt’s momentum has stalled and Mitt has pulled even. Looks like the establishment may get its wish and nominate the most liberal candidate yet again. Sickening......

You don’t know who Alvin Toffler is? We used to think that guy could predict the future, man!

“I’m done with Drudge.”

That’s the answer. Drudge loves boasting of his web hits more than most web sites.

Already removed him from list of sites to go to.

It sure is queer.
Otherwise, ever watched the Invasion of the Body Snatchers?
The original b&w version is the best.
