Fundamentally, you don’t understand, I’ve have experience working in the Reagan administration, I was the Speaker of the House, I, I, I, I, I, want to know you are inhumane for not wanting to house 12 million illegals in your state, send them to school, pay for their food, clothing and shelter and pay for it too!

As my dear late mother would have said, What an arrogant SOB.

That’s rather funny, because there were a few Freepers there, and it was videotaped. Nobody saw anything of the kind, but you’re just sure the majority of people were there to protest, so it must be true.

The Miami Herald reported nothing that you said, either. Neither did WINK News, News Press, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, CNN, Newsmax, or the Freepers in attendance whom I have spoken to.

All of those sources reported the same thing: The crowd was there to support Newt, and enthusiastically so.

If you’re going to live out some fantasy that the venue had to be changed to hold gobs of angry Newt protesters, you should provide some support for your claims.

And really, an online poll? Really?

I don't understand how you can read a article on T/R and determine the demographics of the crowd. Why are you so sure the listeners were Hispanic.Even if they were you should remember they vote.While you are all running around throwing out numbers with no basis in fact, the Hispanic people have found a person they could vote for.

I suspect any online poll that doesn't show Ron Paul winning with 92%

Hi—
Put me on the list (for now...). I want someone like Newt—but just not sure. Maybe the more I read the more I will be convinced.
Thanks

No matter how glib Newt is he will never beat Obama. Newt will never bring in swing voters and Independents.

He is a loser.

Wow. I guess he is the best hope of Illegals, and they appear to really want to hear what he has to say.
(hopefully they brought their kids to translate)

You don't know much about Naples FL, do you?

Naples, especially those who would be showing up at the Hilton, is mostly older white folks at their retirement or vacation condos. Immokalee, on the other hand, might have a sizable number of illegals.

FINALLY!!! Someone gets it.

It's BRILLIANT.

Can't yo u just see the game - the nation would be watching, really paying attention. The press would be drawn in, like it or not, like they tagged along behind Sarah's bus tour, and obama is already sweating bullets. He's damned if he doesn't debate and done if he does - head to head with New who can speak for hours without even ONE teleprompter or "ah" or "Ummm" and who knows our history and Constitution verbatim...

It would be an election season to enjoy - watching that little Caesar get whittled down to a grease spot on the stage.

you say: “If he were half as smart as he thinks he is then he wouldn't have been thrown out as Speaker. “

One wonders if the posters that keep saying these half truths do so deliberately or because they don't’ do due diligence research?

He was head and shoulders smarter than most of the pols in DC - ever hear of jealously? And as to all the ethics charges, put this in your pipes and...

"The demRats charged him with 84 ethics charges, true. He was a thorn in their sides, a very real threat to their existence. But how many people have bothered to research what the results of all those charges were? How many of those charges stuck?

ZERO....per:

Democrats filed 84 politically motivated ethics charges against Gingrich. All of them were found to be without merit. The last three were dismissed on Oct. 10, 1998. The fact is, not a single ethics charge filed against Speaker Gingrich was ever found to be based in fact — not one. Gingrich was cleared of any and all wrongdoing.
The fallout in the case resulted in an IRS investigation and a federal court case. Ultimately, Speaker Gingrich was cleared of any wrongdoing by the bipartisan House Ethics Committee, the IRS and a federal judge.” [1]

Hopefully, honest FREEPERS will cache this link and use it when others make mention of ‘Newt's ethics charges.”

Scarlett will be sweating bullets after Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina....

We have got to make sure that this guy is our nominee. Herman Cain is my second choice.
