Second that. What I’ve learned is that as American people, we truly seem to have no one on our side. All of the so-called conservatives on Fox are in the tank, all these talking heads are in it ...i think we need to stop relying ont hem and just get out and support our candidates with our votes, with our groundwork, and just ignore the rest. Most of them are just establishment groupies. We can see it now very clearly.
O’Reilly gave Romney a tough interview last night. He said he was trying to schedule a Newt interview for tonight. IMO, O’Reilly and Hannity have been fair to both of them. I think Hannity prefers Newt as a candidate overall. I think O’Reilly likes Newt best on substance, but is leaning to Romney on electability.
Today someone asked Bill Bennett if he would endorse a candidate. Bennett has been very outspoken in saying Newt is not electable. Today though he said his audience is definitely favoring Newt and he is torn between supporting the candidate he agrees with most of the time and supporting one he thinks is more electable.
I think people need to make a stronger case for Newt being electable. Read “Overestimating Romney” on the Weekly Standard site, which shows Romney has never demonstrated electability or popularity with voters. People are also putting all their eggs in the basket of the economy with Romney, but what if the Supreme Court overturns Obamacare in the Spring and businesses rejoice and start hiring? The economy could look much improved by November. Remember what happened with McCain? We nominated a national security conservative and when the issue switched to the economy he got slaughtered. We need a candidate who can switch gears and show credibility on any issue. Newt has the experience and gravitas to do that.
