Somehow, I can't see Boehner sharing a loveseat with Newt.
Newt would do the GOP, and the country, a great service if he immediately announced that he has no intention of running in 2012. There’s now ay he wins the nomination, but what he could do, as a respected voice in the party, is help to start thinning out the herd of pretenders and wannabees...
Newtie will always be suspect as long as he maintains membership in the exclusive CFR club along with Hitlery and All-bright, et al.
NEWT WAS TO BUSY BANGING HIS ADMIN ASSISTANT. He betrayed the Republican revolution and the freshman class of 1994. Hillary had his FBI file and new about his little piece on the side. Newt needs to go away. He had his chance and betrayed us for a slice of love pie.
Go away newt.
They’re all in it—and it’s probably better that they’re there to keep tabs on what the opposition is up to.
But I don’t want to see Newt run either.
Newt is a RINO like ROve.
In your dreams Newt. (He WILL, however, get "enthusiastic" support from the MSM)
Get this: A RINO is someone in the House or the Senate who votes most the the time with the rats, and since Gingrich or Karl Rove are holding a political office it’s absurd of you to accuse them of being RINOs
Hillary will announce her candidacy in Feburary 2012.
If he wants to run, he can. No one can tell him he can’t. This is after all a free country. It’s up to the voters if they want to elect him or not
Hitting the bottle early? A RINO is a Repub in name only. It does not matter if they are in office.
You are correct though - Newt and Rove are even bigger POS - they are really DIABLOs like McCain.
Oh Newt’s son wrote this. Was he Newt’s son from wife #3 or wife #5? I lose track. Is Callista wife #6?
I think he was essentially doing just that. He knows perfectly well there will never be a “groundswell of support,” but I don’t see that it would be doing any service to himself or whoever will be the candidate by flat-out denying that he will run (because everybody knows a candidate-type of person is lying when he says this anyway).
That said, it was a question pressed by the interviewer, not something he brought up, and the rest of his comments were interesting.
I thought Gingrinch’s bigggest problem all those years ago, however, was not that he was too combative or even that he was having an affair (nobody knew about that then, and in any case, compared to the doings of the then President, it was pretty tame).
What the Dems “got him” on was an advance on a book he had written. There was nothing illegal about it and not even anything underhanded or unusual; IIRC, they were actually originally trying to deflect from something illegal involving a book contract that had been done by one of their own members.
However, as usual, the GOP didn’t support its own. I think a lot of the GOP at that time regarded Gingrich practically the way they now look at Tea Partiers. I know it’s hard to imagine, but RINOism was even more entrenched and much less examined then, and I don’t think they particularly liked his style or his objectives. So they dumped him immediately, which then became a pattern for the GOP - that is, their ideal in either a leader or a candidate was somebody of whom the Dems would approve. That’s how we ended up with John McCain as our Dem lite candidate in the last election.
Of course it’s a free country. But some things are good for the Party or cause, others not so much.
I can't, either....Boehner's assistant, maybe...
Totally agree with your comments..but he has said many times that he’ll “look at running” after the election..which is why he shoudl take himself out of it now..take a senior statesman role..loos, we have 10-15 possible nominees...that’s got to be thinned out and soon..
The best way for an editor to make sure a story doesn’t get read is to have “Newt Gingrich” in the headline.
