TAPPER: “How do you respond to Republicans who say if you don’t draw distinctions with Mitt Romney and others who are attacking you, if you don’t point out their perceived vulnerabilities, Barack Obama and the Democrats sure aren’t going to share that same reluctance and you are doing Obama a favor by staying positive?”
GINGRICH: “They are not going to be the nominee. I don’t have to go around and point out the inconsistencies of people who are not going to be the nominee. They are not going to be the nominee.”
TAPPER: “You are going to be the nominee?”
GINGRICH: “I’m going to be the nominee. It’s very hard not to look at the recent polls and think that the odds are very high I’m going to be the nominee. And by the way I don’t object if people want to attack me, that’s their right. All I’m suggesting that it’s not going to be very effective and that people are going to get sick of it very fast. And the guys who attacked each other in the debates up to now, every single one of them have lost ground by attacking. So they should do what they and their consultants want to do. I will focus on being substantive and I will focus on Barack Obama.”

However, he's right about not attacking the others...
Newt’s as arrogant as ever. The coming Obama landslide will send him crashing back to the sewer where he belongs.
...and the fix is in. I wonder if we’ll meet Mrs. Gingrich #4 while he’s in office?
I hope not. I would find it very hard to vote for Mr Gingrich, although I would find it harder to vote for Obama or Clinton.
It not sewn up yet Newt.
Newt, the only way you become the nominee is if my sweetie endorses your sorry ass, which she will not do.
Nope. You are wrong.
The nation needs a wise fatherly figure to lead us. Newt is the man.
People KNOW that we need strong medicine.
People KNOW Obama is not going to give it.
None of the other candidates have a wise fatherly tone that is resonating in any way with voters.
Newt’s record against the slickest media-backed pol in history (Bill Clinton) is AMAZING, and it consists of classic Tea Party red meat:
He successfully impeached Clinton for perjury in the House
He successfully passed welfare reform
He successfully launched the Contract With America
He successfully challenged Clinton to a budget showdown by shutting down the government
RED MEAT!!!!
Newt has delivered in the past and has had time to grow wise with age. He will kick butt and make a great conservative leader.
Sounds like you can't wait.
Newt is about to get thrashed, just like the others were. The only reason that it hasn’t started yet is because another bimbo erupted on Cain. The thrashing will start next week.
I believe you as much as I believe unicorns exist.
As will the counter-thrashing.....for once.
How many udders does your unicorn have?
“Newt, the only way you become the nominee is if my sweetie endorses your sorry ass, which she will not do.”
Tru dat! Whoever she endorses, I endorse. I’m not voting for Omoron though that is for certain....Would love to get a peek into her mind right now. Any thoughts on who she would lean to?
Globalist scum..Two LAtin America immigration-addict fast-talking gypsy liar NEWT
His plan will give 3.5 million amnesty....CONSERVATIVE MY A**!
And those of my Catholic friends just won't go for him because of his lack of a moral compass.
The ladies, in particular, just can't see his lovely Callistra as First Lady....they see her as a glorified Monica Lewinsky.
That’s what I’m looking forward to...someone who will fight back for a change...HARD!
Reagan was a father figure, newt is a nitwit and no father figure.
It will require thick skin to beat Obama+Media+Unions. Newt knows every one of his skeletons will be drug from the closet, and better be a little cocky dealing with them. JMO.
exactly right. pure arrogance. he’s only good as his debating is. he is NOT presidential material. Herman Cain is Presidential material.
