Yes, anybody would be better than Barack Obama, but in a country of 310 million people, we can do better than Newt Gingrich. (the best quote in the article).

I'm still of the belief that the ultimate nominee has not been on stage in the debates as yet. That's my hope.

Sorry, but at this point Newt is the only one left who can hold the pass against a Romney victory. The others can’t: Bachmann’s a desperate psycho, Santorum’s a whiner, and Perry’s ability to articulate coherent thoughts is dubious at best.

Naturally, a Romney nomination ensures the reelection of Obumo.

I forget who it was, but someone’s tagline on here reads something like, “Conservatives will find a way to get Obama reelected.” Unfortunately, that ominous statement is coming to fruition.

Thanks guys and gals.

You’re dreaming. Anyone who hasn’t already filed to compete in the primaries months ago, can’t just suddenly jump in.

What you see is what you get.

Frankly, all of this is either old news or else hearsay on the part of Bob Lonsberry. None of it is very convincing.

YAWN.

I was commenting on a facebook thread last night.
I think people are backing Newt because he’s putting the lamestream media in their place and they hope he will do the same thing in the debates. We want someone on our side to forcefully call out Obama. And because Newt is calling out the media, there is this hope that he’ll do the same to Obama.

I am under no such illusions. We don’t call the R’s the stupid party for nothing.

****in a country of 310 million people...and I personally knew an exceptional member of Congress, a true Boy Scout, who Gingrich destroyed as a pure act of spite. ****

Find that great boy scout and make him step up to the plate!!!

I’m proudly supporting Newt.

I may not agree with all of his views but his record as Speaker is untouchable. His skill as a communicator is unchallanged.

I believe he is THE man for this hour of our history.

Look at their accomplishments. Newt allied himself with Ronald Reagan to build the Reagan Coalition, the Religious Right, and the Republican majority (together the Reagan Revolution) which directly led the downfall of the Soviet Union, the Contract with America, government reforms, less government, tax cuts, a balanced budget, and the great, long-standing Reagan economy.

Romney, on the other hand, vehemently denied Ronald Reagan and aligned himself with Ted Kennedy and the left. Romney accomplished installing liberal big government programs, defended and promoted Roe v Wade and legalized abortion as “settled law,” advocated and implemented RomneyCare with its liberty killing government mandates against formerly free citizens and its taxpayer funded or subsidized and mandated abortion procedures. He ran and governed to the left of Ted Kennedy on the “gay agenda” resulting in gay marriage in Massachusetts. He appointed liberal judges and liberal appointees throughout his government. Under his “leadership” conservatism and the Republican party was all but destroyed in Massachusetts.

Romney is one evil liberal progressive. No way in hell will MittBots be allowed to support this abortionist, big government, socialist scumbag on FR!

Guess my message isn’t clear enough. I have to keep repeating it and zotting would be MittBots.

Newt will jump back to a 10 point lead in Iowa after his steller performance at last nights debates coupled with Ron Paul’s epic meltdown.

Romney is going to lose at least 40 states to Newt.

And thank God the other losers will mostly be gone after Iowa.

Many of us are conflicted. We hate the establishment types who are insisting, no demanding, Romney. They are the ones who gave us Dole, and McCain! They are the ones who look down their snoot at Conservatives.

I hear what you're saying about Gingrich and it does concern me. I prefer Bachmann, or Santorum, or even Perry, but just what is the alternative? The alternative is literally four more years of Obama and the end of the Republic. Of this I am certain.

Therefore, at this point Gingrich may be a flawed candidate but a flawed candidate is better than a Communist president hellbent on our destruction.

Romney is going to be the next President whether we like it or not.

Need to focus on Congress and keep a strong Tea Party presence to hold his feet to the fire on social and economic conservatism.

I feel ya pal, however I will weigh the pros & cons of each candidate and cast my vote based on my gut instincts. If I voted today, it would be for Newt.

The problem is everyone on stage has their own agenda and there agenda's don't follow any form or function of America or Americans being a free nation "we the people " are slowly being forced to become we the sheeple and our so called leaders are only interested in being above any law written by man or God !

If Newt is nominated I'll break my arm pulling the lever for him.

And thats all I'll say about it.

I’m not a Newt fan but I will vote for him if he is the candidate. ABO, anybody but Obama.
This thing was heavy on accusations and light on specifics.
