“Is she asking the obvious “What the hell is he thinking?:”

Yeah, Laura grilled Newt pretty well - but I think Gingrich held his own, and made a few decent points.

He said that Hoffman competed in the primary process and lost decisively to “whats her name.” He said he’s afraid that if every contested Republican primary ends up in 3rd party challenge - the result will be overwhelming Democrat victories.

Anyone know the history of the primary in this case? Was it a fair election ? How could Hoffman be polling so well and lose in the primary? Just wondering.

Sadly I can see Hoffman losing the primary. New name, no money, going against establishment. How does a new comer enter the fray???? Like he is doing. Make it a national race??? I think we are doing the right thing here. Vote Hoffman.

Laura rolled over like a puppy big time when she interviewed Specter on O’Reilly some months ago. I have been very disappointed in her.

There was no primary. This is a special election and the GOP candidate was selected by the GOP Party hacks in the district.

Newt apparently got his facts wrong or his is lying.

There are no decent points. She approached the Democrats first and they said no.

His only point is she has an R by her name and if we have to back Obama-clones with R’s then we will to win, thats all that matters.

NO WAY. Nothing decent about the points.
