Newt Gingrich was in Top Form during a post Las Vegas News Conference-FoxNews with blindspots

Newt Gingrich is a brilliant speaker and a brilliant political leader. He demonstrated an opennes and a command of conservatism during his post LasVegas Caucus news conference. Fox News analysts were openly unfair in their analysis of Gingrich's news conference. They were openly jealous that Newt is head and shoulders above Romney, Santorum and Paul. Fox News has blindspots, since only Charles Krauthammer acknowledged Gingrich's superiority over Romney in expressing detailed policy positions such as Obama's denying American Catholics Freedom of Religion by forcing them to violate their beliefs by requiring them to pay for artificial contraception with Obamacare requirements.

Juan Williams,
Ellen Ratner,
Alan Colmes.

I just watched this on FOX. Unbelievalbe. A striaght half hour of non-stop questions like (to paraphrase)...

Are you going to quit?
Whya are your running negative ads?
Are you angry?
Are you considering quitting?
You lost 4 out of 5 of the sates you were on the ballot in. Can’t you see people just aren’t buying what you’re selling?
Why are you still running when everybody knows you can’t win.

Then after all that some reporter says “You seem to have any positive message. Just look at the negative tone of this press conference.”

ARRRRRRRRRRHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The results are telling me that at this point the media is overpowering any grass roots or cyberspace campaigning/explaining for Newt or Santorum that is taking place.

We must find an alternative media source to dispute their version of events, but where? and from whom? and how quickly implemented?

My sense is that this must be turned around by Super Tuesday. Otherwise, the only alternative for true conservatives will be a 3rd candidate or a 3rd party.

And they will be seriously attacked, as well.

It is disgusting the way Faux News and the gop establishment have treated the ONLY true conservative we have running in this election.

That just can't be true. Didn't you hear, the now starting to age and showing it, Ann Coulter on FOX News last night with Brett Baier, along with Michael Reagan? She said Romney was the most Conservative candidate. And, if you can't believe Ann Coulter, who can you believe? (/sarc.)

What a political whore Ann Coulter has turned out to be. Michael Reagan got the last word in on her comment however.

I’m looking forward to his “new strategy” for dealing with Mitt when he out & out lies at the next debate.

Yeah; I can’t wait for that myself.

[no dems]

BTW...I think I’m switching to CNN...

I have found myself watching CNN more than FOX for the past couple of months. That’s how far the “mighty” FOX has fallen. They have been in the tank for RINO-Rom for months.

He was real good. He makes it clear that Ronald McRomney can not beat Obama. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sad to say, but, neither of them can beat Obozo now. We've given the DemocRATS too much campaign fodder to use against whomever our nominee is. Many comments were made last night re: the GOP Candidate going into the General Election "fractured" because of all of the in-fighting and nastiness during the Primary Process. Newt indicated that he had, and will continue, to get just as nasty as Romney. The only alternative, he said, was to "get out of the race". So, he's willing to take this thing to the mat with RINO-Rom even if it means Obozo getting reelected. That is perfectly alright with me. We may as well have a Marxist Muslim in the White House as a Marxist Mormon. The GOP has once again pulled defeat from the jaws of victory. So, let Obozo have four more years to finish destroying the Economy of this nation. We deserve what we get.

Well, there must be a score or more folks on this thread who are fed up with Faux News as am I.

However, how many of you have emailed the network with the same messages you posted here?

Unless you let them know your displeasure, you're blowin' in the wind. Unless you let them know why you're not viewing any more, you're preaching to the choir.

Turning off the TV channel or the radio does no good either unless you're participating in a group survey for a ratings company under contract with a network. It just makes you feel better grabbing the clicker or the dial.

Try Foxfeedback@Foxnews.com.

You can boycott sponsors, but unless you let THEM know, your disgust is getting you nowhere.

This is just how things work in media big business.

“It is all about the money folks, always follow the money, always.”

Absolutely spot on. It’s really that simple. Even Rush Limbaugh is getting nudged and caged although he never comes out as pro-Romney, rather he avoids direct talk about the sleaze of Romney operatives.

From your pen to God's ears.

[Taxachusan]

Agreed. When you see things like this from Donna Brazile of all people, the world seems turned upside down:

"Romney is ready to end this battle. He's anxious to win. But @newtgingrich will never surrender to a candidate that misleads all the time"

 "Newt Gingrich is the Only Republican Who Whipped Us in 1994"

Heaven help us!

[TheRake]

“I am no longer a Republican”

I’m having the same thoughts. As Reagan said about his party at the time, “the party has left me”. Why have a platform when it isn’t adhered to. If it doesn’t change, I get to join the likes of Thomas Sowell and become an independent.

[Qwackertoo]

oh I missed the spider web comment. That is so true.

[Qwackertoo]

I may have missed it if it has been posted on here before, but IF like some think that Britt Hume blames Newt for the suicide of his gay son . . . maybe Drudge believes it too and that points a little to the Bloody Thursday and his all out war with negative stories and headlines on Newt. Maybe?

Newt is here to FIGHT and WIN ...


As Rush Limbaugh said ... (paraphrased) ... "the Florida exit polls (Baptists supporting Romney, etc) DO NOT matter when Romney has run 65 "negative" TV spot every one TV spot that Newt Gingrich had the budget for ... 13,000 versus 200"




Think Korea, Chosin Reservoir ... 10,000 U.S. Marines surrounded by 250,000 Red Chinese ...

even the U.S. Marines pulled-out ... albeit as "Fighting and Chinese Kick-Ass Retreat" as General Chesty Puller described it ...




Newt's Saturday night speech was VERY important ...

His target audience was those 200,000 plus "little-guy donors" who have given $ 200 or less ... pretty much maybe all they can afford ...

I am in that number ($ 300) ...

American Patiots (in that number) are THE ONES that work campaign phone banks, walk neighborhood precients, attend rallies, are the political "Boots on the Ground" ...

We are Newt Gingrich's "Chosin Reservoir Marines" ... fighting desperately against 65:1 financial odds ...

We are Winton Churchill's Royal Air Force (RAF) ... fighting desperately against the NAZI-style propaganda machine ... funded by George Soros, Bush-41 and Barbara and Jeb, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid ... and by the "world-wide" Temple of Mormon ...




"WE SHALL RETURN" ... however ... just as (my namesake) General Douglas "Dugout Doug" McArthur said of the temporary U.S. retreat from the Phillipines in 1942 ...

The "same" General Douglas McArthur that engineered the "courageous" and "brilliant" Inchon Landings ... that BROKE THE BACK of the North Korean army ...

left them shattered in dissary, defeated in detail ...

And let History record that "THIS WAS THEIR FINEST HOUR" in America's Twenty-First Century ...




Today (this Sunday morning) I PROUDLY stand (as a Florida resident) with Newt Gingrich ...

Two (2.000) Newt 2012 campaign signs are STILL in my front yard ... where they will remain ... even "after" Newt Gingrich is elected President of the United States ...

And as Newt predicted ... "We will WIN in Tampa" at the GOP Convention ...

and ... "We WILL defeat Barrack Hussein Obama" in November 2012 for the Presidential election ...




=====================================


Has it occurred to ANYONE (even astute Free Republic observers) ... and that (neo-nitwit soap-selling cynical media whore Mark Steyn) ...

WHY ... WHY ... WHY ... ???

the political "long-knives" are being murderously thrust into Newt Gingich ...

especially by GOP E-RINOs (specifically like "Barbara Bush") ...

BECAUSE Newt Gingrich is the FIRST PRESIDENT (since Thomas Jefferson in 1802) that wants to Constitutionally) "castrate" the "completely" OUT-OF-CONTROL U.S. Federal Judiciary ...

Specifically (again) ... "TREASONOUS traitors" (calmly, deliberately stated) like SCOTUS Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg ...

who "astoundingly" stated this week that the U.S. Constitution WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH for Egypt ... and that the (Animal Farm, corrupted, socialist) constiution of South Africa was better than what Jefferson, Hamilton, Payne, (et al honorarium) penned ...

pledging their "lives, fortunes, and sacred honor" ...


=====================================



For Me ?

Newt's Saturday night speech is his way of saying "NUTS!!!!" to the Romney Campaign ... George and Barbara Bush ... and his "friends" at the New York Times ...

I stand with Newt Gingrich ... I stand for FREEDOM ...

Wouldn’t it be great if Free Republic had a radio talk show? Jim Robinson could plaster his message all over the air waves. I went on CNN’s site after the Nevada primary and there were quite a few bloggers attacking Romney but most were Paul supporters.

[katiedidit1]

The Republican Party no longer stands for less govt. Look at Romney for example and I hate to say it but Santorum too. Romney is the epitome of a rino and the very type of DC politician the Tea Party has worked so hard to get rid of..I am a constitutionalist. I won’t give the gop a dime.

[xzins]

I switched to CNN, too. They are still in the tank on the repub side for Romney, but at least you get to hear the libs attack Romney, too.

Over a Fox he’s “All Mr Wonderful, all the time”.

It’s disgusting how bad they’ve become.

[moehoward]

It is indeed sad when the “liberal” panelists are more reasonable than the so called “Conservatives”.

That said, I have yet to hear Steve Hayes sound like he received a payoff.
Krauthammer confuses me. Just when I’m sure he’s bought, he gives an honest assessment. Maybe he’s just that good.
