Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has crushed pizza magnate Herman Cain, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, Texas Governor Rick Perry and Texas Congressman Ron Paul in a California Public Policy Polling poll of Republican primary voters. With 33 percent of the votes, Gingrich is 10 percentage points in front of Romney and 11 percentage points in front of Cain. Gingrich is 27 percentage points ahead of Perry and 28 percentage points ahead of Paul. The California PPP poll is the latest evidence that Gingrich is benefiting from Cains trouble with sexual harassment allegations stemming from his tenure as head of the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s.

Correction.
An employee from Freddie Mac donated.
There. I’m sure you’re relieved not to have to make that same mistake again and again and again and again...
I would advise you to follow up on the freddie mac employee and also note the firms he was connected to outside of freddie mac. OH gee...I work at a global warming agency or a freddie mac agency and donate to Cain...because I know he opposes them both
Hey ding dong, show me the pictures of Newt aiding and abetting, pandering to and lending credibility and legitimacy to La Raza by attending their racist, pro-illegal alien conferences.
Thanks!
Interesting but there has been one debate since then. I wonder if Luntz has done another since Saturday. (Nov 12 )
” I don’t support Perry, but did you see Gingrich’s idea about letting locals decide which illegals can stay?”
WE ARE A NATION OF LAWS, OR WE AREN’T. NO ILLEGALS GET TO STAY.
Obama has to be thanking the stars for this set of losers we got stuck with, again.
Exactly right. Last time around we had the choice of McCain or McCain. The nominee has always been decided before we got to vote... which is OK with me because CA is so liberal.
Did you notice that I posted that I don't support Perry? I remember you and I both fighting GWB's amnesty push in 2007.
However, I don't think you have to worry about Perry. He is not going to be the nominee. He does not have the skill to hide his agenda, but Newt does.
I am not sure what Newt would do if elected POTUS, but are you sure Newt is not going to end up on the side of amnesty? He hosted his own Latino conference in 2010 (maybe there are some pics, I don't have any): On Thursday in Washington, Gingrich's curious, intense, occasionally gaffe-prone relationship with Latinos and their language comes into full bloom with the opening of an unusual two-day forum he is hosting at the Washington Hilton. Nearly 60 speakers on more than a dozen panels will offer a largely conservative take on domestic and hemispheric affairs of interest to Latinos. The speakers include Jose Maria Aznar, the former Spanish prime minister; Arturo Sarukhan, Mexico's ambassador to the United States; and Carlos Gutierrez, who served as commerce secretary during George W. Bush's second term in the White House.
California? Who could believe Newt would rock here? Now there’s a feather in Newt’s cap, for sure. /s
I can see the reasoning behind your comments, but I think most of these folks would put a stop to a great deal of what Obama wants to do.
We need to determine is which one would put a stop to the most of it, and push them all the way.
Which still means a hill of beans, because at the end of the day... the state is still voting Democrap in the general.
Let me be clear here.
There is not a single candidate running for POTUS that is conservative enough, pro-American enough, or that is America first, all the time, every time, enough for me.
I have no favorites in the this current group running and consider most of them to be paid off government insiders, who take money form special interest groups.
Just like the Democrats.
Not one, not one of them, have the fire, justified anger or passion to be president, IMO.
We need a candidate who can communicate with fire, passion and justified anger, who will stand up, throw away the GD notes away, kick the podium and teleprompter off the damn stage and have a hard talk with our American brothers and sisters.
Don't want to beat my drum, but personally, I could speak for an hour or two, with no notes, no teleprompters, no handlers and tell all WTF we have to do to get save this country from the brink.
Of course, I don't have $100,000,000 in special interest/bribe money to run.
The problem with me, or any *real* candidate is after the speech, those in government, the government unions, government insiders, foreigners, banksters, Wall Street insiders, free trade people, illegal aliens, globalist, academia, government contractors, will not vote or support for what needs to be done.
It's a big problem and could very well kill America in the end.
Newt has been on the wrong side of too many issues for me to take him seriously. No way.
I’m not saying others are perfect, but they’re sure a step ahead of this guy.
Leadership isn’t about being able to spout a good line, it’s about being on the right side almost all the time, and leading others in that direction with you.
Newt doesn’t qualify.
Clarify?
Newt soared with that group - you say is was before the Sat. debate - which, by all reports, he won - so are you intimating he'll be DOWN from then or UP?
Which way is your 'wishful thinking' heading? ;o)
I would not include Romney as being a step ahead. If anything, I think he is worse than Newt.
Which way is your 'wishful thinking' heading? ;o)
Just curious......I like Newt and Perry.
;)
