Who cares WHAT the “experience” will be for “other” candidates?
Having him as part of the “debates” detracts from more valuable input to be derived from having useful (i.e. CONSERVATIVE) candidates putting their ideas out to the voters while depriving the MSM their opportunity to push yet another RINO upon us.
Take the RINO’s out of the process right now. That is what we need, IMO. Draft viable conservatives if necessary, but do NOT let another RINO be forced upon us.
Well, thro a few out there HR. I am on record as to who I support but you just ain’t that Savvy. :^)
Concur. There have many, many, many, other times in Newt’s public appearances where he has walked the fence, sacrificing conservative principles, thinking he could win political percentage points, but never providing a political voice enumerating the perspectives of those he sought to represent.
What we have identified as “RINO” is too frequently a public personality/celebrity, who believes they can simply report a somewhat counter-liberal commentary and be associated with conservatism and politics.
The degeneration of American virtue is too far along to condone this type of mediocrity in conservative leadership.
Politics is more than simply expressing some popular thoughts. There is a process of identifying and communicating amongst multiple parties with similar base values and virtues, their common perspectives, especially to adversarial opponents lacking any virtue in worldly power structures.
Newt too often has rolled into the same mediocre level od popular politics, which appeals to the criminal and corrupt, as well as the conservative.
At this stage of the game, I would recommend he not only back out, but change his attitude back to virtue and provide guidance to those less scarred in the public eye.
If he runs now for public office, he simply becomes a detractor, encouraging a split between Tea Party candidates and Republicans, affording Obama the same advantage Perot gave Clinton nearly 2 decades ago.
