Yes, we know Newt knows more than anyone else in the room most of the time, he’s shown that in debate after debate, but there’s more than that to winning elections.
Newt has very bad unfavorables with general voters and loses in 1on1 matchups vs Obama compared with Romney and Santorum. He’s bee “borked” and “palinized” and “newtered” by the press, who still brings up a phony story from 1979 (you know the one).
That ‘electability gap’ is the #1 reason newt faded and will not win the nomination.
Newt aand ron Paul at this point has some other agenda besides winning.
Plus the fact that Newt has managed to win only his home state and one neighboring state whereas his opponents have won 24 of them.
How many times have the media and establishment lied to you about "electability"?
Do you remember Bob Dole, McCain, Ford, etc.?
