He is a liberal. Gingrich was a conservative once. He changed. He won’t be getting my vote.

I will never vote for an Open Borders Republican!

I missed Newt’s “open borders” part.

“I will never vote for an Open Borders Republican!”

That’s a little disingenuous... He’s for suiting down the boarders. The issue with him is what should be done with the folks that are already here.

He’s also stated he’s for enforcing the law, which is all that is needed for them to go back to Mexico or where ever. If they can’t get jobs or freebees they will be heading home.

It keeps looking to me, more and more, that Newt is tacking center, out of the Republican establishment playbook concerning always tacking to the midpoint, no matter how far left your opponent goes.

Kneejerk Centrist Delusion Syndrome.

RINOs would opt to aim for the middle between God and Satan.

It's like a drunk driving his car towards a bridge abutment at a fork in the road and trying to split the difference between going left and right.

RINO rule #1: always compromise. Before the game, during the game, after the game is over.

RINOs are all honorary diplomates of the Neville Chamberlain School of Strategy, degreed with double majors in Life and Death Situations as well as Minutiae of Daily Life; this is where they learn to never take a stand, stick their head in the sand and join their enemies as a way of not losing wars.

I love the way Newt is so smart and could thrash Obama in a debate. He has "heard" the electorate and is pushing a message that he has conservative viewpoints... but...

But as to what he will do once in office... he does have a lot of conservative-sounding material on his website, but he's also got a few things out there now that make me very nervous about 4 years of him signing legislation and appointing judges.

IMHO.

When the courts flip liberal, have fun with a few generations of ‘I lived by my semi-rational principles’. Last election, I said that about McCain, but the courts didn’t drastically change and McCain was a horrendous pick. Now we’re faced with Newt who’s 20times better and you want to sit on your hands. Well, since you’re in California, like me, it really doesn’t matter...
But if you were in Ohio, I would think it was a stupid move for conservatism. We win this election or conservatism is dead. It is. I’m an anyone but Romney/Paul guy right now and I’ll be an anyone but Obama guy after this nomination. I suggest you think it over just a bit. And yes, I know Newts general positions and their consequences (both positive and negative).

Agree, he is not as he seems, Gingrich the Global Warmist, Gingrich Nasty Pelosi’s best pol, Gingrich deep draws from the Public Feeding Trough after leaving office (million dollar advice to Freddy and Medicare, Really? Newt. Really?)

Newt, “We don't need no stinking borders!”

If nominated and elected, he will turn out to be Obama without the African father and the march to One World Governance and “Horhey” Sorosism will continue uninterrupted. The fleecing of America must not be thwarted!

Obviously you haven’t read this. Gingrich is not for open borders. In his debate remarks on 11/22 he advocated:

control the border
guest worker program
review board
deportation in specific cases
very severe penalties for employers

Well, no candidate will please everyone or get every vote. That’s why they have primaries. However, he will be getting my vote.
