Newt is coming on strong. If only he weren't a neocon.

“Newt is coming on strong. If only he weren’t a neocon.”

Agree. He still has a ‘heart’ for people that are here Illegally. He wants to keep them around with work permits if they’ve been here a while and established ‘roots’.

Not good, it opens the door to some future president/Congress giving them Amnesty, or even a judge doing the same.

We MUST remove them, if they did not enter properly.

Hmmm so Newt is the “adult”? The “adult” who has consistently stabbed the Conservative movement in the back in the name of political expediency?

Newt who threw Paul Ryan under the bus, trash talked the GOP Health Care plan as “Right wing social engineering”, chastised Conservative for not backing uber RINO Dede Scusafasa, purposes a Amnesty lite “Middle way on Immigration” and jumped on the Global Warming couch with Nancy Pelosie?? Who pimps “alternative energy”? Newt who took $300,000 plus from Fannie and Freddie to prevent them getting reformed thus helping with his good buddies Frank and Dodd cause the 2008 crash?

So “adult” now means being a Bush like candidate who will talk a tough game on the Campaign trail and then go to DC and be a good little crony capitalist liberal GOP water boy.

No thanks, have no interest in voting for McCain 2.0 in 2012

"He definitely has the smarts to maybe pull it off."

And the electorate has proved time and time again that they are stupid enough to let him do it.

Newt has to do his part to save the Republic and agree to be Cain’s VP!

Let’s hope this “Newt Boomlet” is over soon. I am going to run out of barf bags.

He’s also a sprayed fly. Never know on what side of an issue he will come down on. Could be staunchly conservative, moderate, slightly conservative or flaming liberal.
I’ll pass.

Was he playing chess when

Newt who threw Paul Ryan under the bus, trash talked the GOP Health Care plan as “Right wing social engineering”, chastised Conservative for not backing uber RINO Dede Scusafasa, purposes a Amnesty lite “Middle way on Immigration” and jumped on the Global Warming couch with Nancy Pelosie?? Who pimps “alternative energy”? Newt who took $300,000 plus from Fannie and Freddie to prevent them getting reformed thus helping with his good buddies Frank and Dodd cause the 2008 crash?

Newt has been out of the Congressional game of musical chairs for several years.

From his most recent comments - he seems to have spent that hiatus reflecting on his own missteps as a well-meaning but naive pragmatist.

I expect in his maturity he is dedicated to seeing the US return to its Constitutional roots and counteract Obama’s fatal flaws.

Wow nice writing for a change,

"What we may be witnessing is the second coming of Newt Gingrich, as he reprises his role as chief author of Democrat demise."

Question: "Will Newt Gingrich Win the Republican Nomination?"

Answer: Such an event is starting to look possible. I know I'm moving towards supporting him as he seems the most competent of all the Republican candidates. Some on this forum point out he may be a RINO which gives one pause. There are claims he supported some positions I cannot tolerate such as "amnesty light" I will watch and listen to what he has to say on this vital issue.

In my estimation, Newt has one fatal flaw:

He's a politician.
