No rant, of any kind except in your mind, the numbers are the numbers. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2011/11/18/is_newt_peaking_too_soon_112119.html

You can't really be this dense. Or can you? You must really be a Newt plant designed to make him look good by acting like you are against him and making yourself look like a fool.

First, you say Newt had nothing more than a meaningless 8% bump that his supporters were making a mountain out of a molehill over. Then I point out that Real Clear Politics showed his rise from 4% to 21%, demolishing your point into bits of dust. Then you switch to Vegas odds. And now you direct me to a link at Real Clear Politics while saying "the numbers are the numbers". And what does the article say? I quote:

"Newt Gingrich is the latest GOP hopeful to experience a sudden surge in his polling numbers. The former speaker of the House is now leading or tied for the lead in the last three national surveys, and is rising fast in Iowa".

The article you cite completely agrees with me and also obliterates your supposed point that Newt has had only a meaningless 8% bump in the polls. In fact, it questions whether Newt has risen too far too fast! ROFL!

The article itself links to the exact poll numbers that I cited, showing Newt's rise in the polls from 4% to 21% since August.

I do thank you for re-enforcing me point. Do you often sabotage your own argument like this? Are you self-loathing? Kick yourself much?

Nah, I think I'm right - you have got to be a Newt plant designed to make his detractors look like embiciles with arguments as sturdy as wet newspaper. I gotta hand it to you, it's a brilliant strategy and carried out quite effectively! You have me convinced! LOL

He’s not a Newt plant, but he is about as smart as a potted plant.
