“The speaker is running as a reliable and trusted conservative leader. What we’re here to say, with reluctance, but clearly, is he is not a reliable or trustworthy conservative leader,” Sen. Jim Talent told reporters on a conference call arranged by the Romney campaign.

THIS IS THE POT CALLING THE KETTLE BLACK, and WITH GOOD REASON. Romney you are even less of a consistent conservative.

Romney needs to go away; we don’t want him.

They are right about Gingrich. I don’t want him as president either. I think he is dangerous.

But, but, but: why does Romney need to be president so badly? I haven’t heard him say that he feels only he can do xyz and save the nation. Its not a fun job. Why is Romney so desperate for it?

AUGUST 29, 1997

John Sununu, Jr.:

Gingrich “has the ability to put forward a focused message, to talk about issues in detail, to talk about policy, to talk about strategy for the party, and where we want to be for the future, and that message is always going to be important and of great appeal to people who are trying to organize and work at the grassroots level.”

unpredictable

Enemies foreign and domestic hate an unpredictable opponent more than anything. That includes the Democrazy Party.

As a conservative, I am in panic over both of them.

Romney's plan all along was to keep the conservative vote split among multiple candidates, and win with a plurality of the vote (as McCain did in 2008).

Now that the 75% of GOP voters that don't want Romney are starting to coalese around a single candidate (Newt) Romney's strategy is falling apart. As far as I can tell, he has no back up plan other than trash Newt and build up the other conservative candidates.

The other thing happening (that seems to be going unreported) is that Huntsman is picking up some steam at Romney's expense. It looks like Romney's supporters (in NH particularly) are starting to realize Romney is in trouble and looking at plan-B. Bill Bennett (who has been in the tank for Romney) gave Huntsman over an hour of uninterrupted time on his radio show this week right in the middle of AM drive time--a huge plug by any standard.

“I don’t think Newt Gingrich cares about conservative principles,” Sununu said. “Newt Gingrich cares about Newt Gingrich.”

Governor, I KNOW Mitt Romney doesn’t care about conservative principles. Mitt Romney cares about Mitt Romney.

Gingrich openly battled Tip O’Neill, helped Reagan, took the House from the democratic party, passed welfare reform again and again and again until Clinton signed it, passed balanced budgets, created a surplus, lowered taxes, cut the House staff by a third, eliminated useless committees, got rid of the seniority system for House committees, instituted term limits for committee chairmen and his own position, and impeached a rogue, criminal-minded president. Romney can’t compare to Gingich on conservative principles or actions.

Why would the Romney camp be worried? They got the Quayle endorsement!

This from a rectal clown who supports Milt Romney. These horses patudies have no shame.

Problem with Newt is the sleaze factor. He was cheating on his wife with a staffer at the same time he was going after Clinton and Lewinsky. And of course he was forced out of the Speakership and paid a big fine. Since then he moved to the Beltway and has become a pseudo-lobbyists with his fingers in every pie taking well over a million dollars from corrupt organizations like Freddie Mac. Newt is sloppy, disorganized, and corrupt. The GOP will down in flames if he is the Party nominee.
