Newt Gingrich charms Dallas Tea Party crowd with scholarly air, promises to undo Obama
The American Independent ^ | 10/21/11 | Patrick Michels

To help get there, Gingrich said that after he wins the Republican nomination he’ll challenge Obama to “seven Lincoln-Douglas style three-hour debates” — with a timekeeper, but, he added to great cheers from the crowd, no moderator — repeating a promise he made at last week’s debate in Las Vegas.

Should Obama decline his challenge, Gingrich vowed to tail the president on the campaign trail, speaking after him in every town he visits — just like Lincoln did to Douglas.

“I will methodically take apart every Obama speech from October until the election,” he said.

Before the end of three hours with Newt, Obama would be invoking the mercy rule. I would love to see it.

Reminds me of a newspaper headline just after the last Presidential election.

There was a pic of BO and President Bush with the headline, ‘Undo You’.

Very ungentlemanly, but I expect nothing less from that ilk.

Newt is a con man! He was lobbying for Freddie Mac for $300,000 from 2006-2007 against conservatives call to reform it. Stop it! It’s shocking how he got his arms around some Tea Party and made them believe he is one of them! He has a total lack of judgement

Negrodamus would never accept this challenge... never..
He knows what he “ain’t”...

The White Hut knows he is just a propaganda outlet..
A serious debate would not pass muster..

Any republican that thinks it would is delusional..
If Newt is serious.. HE SHOULD DO THIS NOW!!.. don’t wait..

Problem with this is Newt is a master at charming what every group he happens to be in front of.

Wonder how this audience would of reacted to Newt's "Middle way on Immigration reform" speech.>p? This is the problem with Newt, he will tell you what you want to hear but when it comes to deliver, he will choke everytime.

Well... Obama has an easy escape right now. If Newt is the nominee, Obama will be forced to respond. I can picture the Newt campaign following the Obama campaign around the country.... dissecting his speeches and hounding him to accept the debates. Exactly how long can Obama duck Newt? How long can the media really cover for him?

I suggested that the Newt campaign list about 12 potential debate topics for him and Obama, and let the public decide exactly what the candidates are to debate. How, then, could Obama so blatantly ignore the will of the people?

How about Hillary? I’m concerned that the dems will put her or a primary challenger in the slot and that we will not be up against Obama at all. How would Newt - or any of our guys - fare against Hillary?

Not keeping up with current events, eh?... One thing about Newt, he is smart enough to leanr and change his positions whne he is wrong:

Of course, those with an agenda to destroy anyone not their favorite and thus promote their favorite by default won't see the truth even when video records it!

But, Newt is on the WRONG TEAM. He has knowingly made excuses for the AGW nonsense and is in it for Newt. He is a pure blood “establishment” “Globalist” Pubbie. I want NO PART of Newt as Pres.

[ If Newt is the nominee, Obama will be forced to respond. ]

You don’t know much about politics I see..
Zerodamus can ignore him.. act like he don’t exist..
Like hes does NOW!!!..

Democrats having no answers cannot allow the questions..
Democrats are silly people that see nothing strange about silly answers or questions..

Gingrich didn’t take any jabs at his GOP rivals for the presidency, but some in attendance said it’s that methodical approach, his scholarly air, his intelligence — that make him such an appealing candidate, especially up against Perry.”

All I am saying, give Newt a chance.
