The list is only a few weeks old, so it’s good to see it expanding so much, so fast. Newt is doing a great job, and it is good to see him reveal his plans for a Conservative presidency!

In reality, I think 90% of the folks on the list are like myself, and are adopting the “Buckley Rule.”

It has been a long, long time since we’ve been able to defeat the Establishment pick for President. Only once in almost fifty years have we succeeded, by my count (Reagan). They have had a run of success that has given them the ability to “wag the dog” for a very long time.

Gingrich won’t be the death blow to the Establishment that Sarah Palin would be, or DeMint, or Santorum, et al. But it will be a mortal wound that leaves them bleeding for the whole world to see. Defeating them in a few state primaries in one thing, besting them on a national level is going to rock their universe. Newt doesn’t have every Tea Partier’s support, but he has a lot of it, and it’s going to be hell on Earth for the Establishment Republicans watching a bunch of Tea Partiers planting their flags at the Convention in lieu of their own.

Last time around, the Establishment had three choices. This time around, they fell in almost uniform line around Mitt Romney, and did it before we even knew who was running. They have put all of their power, money, influence, media, and machinery behind Mitt. They changed primaries in the hopes of favoring him, both dates and rules. They did everything to put the fix in like they have successful in doing for decades.

If we can oust their chosen candidate who has THIS MUCH near-unanimous support, and do so soundly - and we just might - they are going to see that NOBODY is safe anymore. We can get them anywhere, as we did in 2010 in Maine, NH, and PA - and now we can beat them in national races.

if we pull this off, the rules will have been changed for good. No more back of the bus for us; welcome to the new reality.

The GOP establishment would be just as happy with La Raza Rick Perry or with easily compromised Newt Gingrich as they would with mini-ObaMao care Romney.

Maybe that Newt has outgrown his schlong management problems (we hope), he will be the least distasteful of the three.

But let's not kid ourselves about sticking it to the GOP establishment. Our last opportunity to do that ended earlier today.

""""if we pull this off""""""

WHEN we pull this off, is the correct statement. Great post. Time to get to work now. I have already recruited a few of my friends to Newt, wasn't hard to do, once I emailed them the videos of his speeches.

Now that Cain is off the screens, a few others will join us.

I have an unopened bottle of Champagne left from the last election, ready to throw a NEWT WINS celebration party, can't wait to pop the cork.

YOUR WHOLE POST IS GREAT, AND I APOLOGIZE FOR THE EXCERPT!

Hear! Hear!

Even the GOP-E's favorite son, their chosen one, Governor Chris Christie declined to run and came out for Romney, but Newt Gingrich shot to the lead despite Fox News and Governor Christie's endorsement of Romney!

At this point in time, I have to say GO GINGRICH!

I wish I had his closing statement tonight, and his last answer about his favorite Founding Father.
