I suggest that you read the threads that have been posted lately, about a Gingrich run for president. They are NOT, as you incorrectly assume, filled to the brim with supporters. His naysayers know full well, his strengths and his weaknesses. They also are able to recognize his severe problems; some of them self inflicted. Newt was a GREAT backbencher and a mostly good idea man, though some of his "ideas" are not only dreadful, but also NOT conservative at all! Once in power, Gingrich proved, over and over again that he couldn't handle it.
Historically, NO Congressman has EVER become president from that position. A few Senators have, but in the 20th century, only two managed to pull it off.
Your loathsome and perpetual antipathy towards President Bush become your trademark and posting MO. It has now devolved into an abyss of delusional tirades against him and anyone who doesn't toe your exact line of thinking, 100% of the time. That is neither true debate, nor anything other than a waste of bandwidth.
Tancredo and Newt Gingrich will never share a ticket; let alone be elected as president and V.P. in any order. Face that reality and live with it. Childishly carrying on about a bizarre hypothetical, isn't helpful to you, nor is it productive.
First off, you get caught making your usual off the wall comment. In this case:
"Not according to FR's polls, they're NOT! Most people here are NOT Tancredo for president supporters."
I post the FACTS, not once but twice. The FACTS show that Tancredo is supported by over 86% of FReepers in a one-on-one poll question versus the Democrat frontrunner for 2008. In another poll question: "If the 2008 Republican primary for president were held today and the following candidates were listed on your ballot, which one would you choose?, Tancredo comes out on top in that FR poll too. [Note: By their nature, all polls are hypothetical at this early stage of the campaign.] Second. Then you ridicule the players in question ---- Tancredo and Gingrich ---- tossing in that your old standard line, the poster is a liar. Third. Then after getting caught acting like a fool in public, you come back with more of the same. This is too easy. LOL
>>>>Your loathsome and perpetual antipathy towards President Bush become your trademark and posting MO.
Another tactic your famous for. Reaching conclusions that have no basis in fact. I have no hatred towards Dubya. Voted for Bush twice, however, he's been a huge disappointment to all conservatives. In my case, that disappointment pertains mostly to his domestic policy, and of course, his general inability to communicate his message through a proper use of the Bully Pulpit. If you look at the polls, you'll see Bush has been mired in the 35%-40% range for the last year and for good reason.
Also, there is nothing "delusional" in my posts about Bush. Dubya ignored his conservative base and the GOP lost control of Congress. Dubya even said so, the day after the election: ".... as the head of the Republican Party, I share a large part of the responsibility."
>>>>I suggest that you read the threads that have been posted lately, about a Gingrich run for president. They are NOT, as you incorrectly assume, filled to the brim with supporters.
I assume nothing and never said they were filled to brim with supporters. I said Gingrich has strong support from a majority of FReepers and that is true. We all know Newt's shortcomings. The facts remain. A majority of conservatives and FReepers are supportive of Newt. Whether he throws his hat in the ring, is unknown at this point. If Newt gets into the race, we'll see how he handles it. Until then, the idea is hypothetical.
>>>>Childishly carrying on about a bizarre hypothetical, isn't helpful to you, nor is it productive.
There is nothing bizarre about discussing possible candidates for the 2008 GOP nomination for Prez. Nothing. What's juvenile is your efforts to constantly ridicule other FReepers who disagree with you. Even when your wrong on the facts. Now that is counter productive.
