Slipping in polls under an onslaught of attacks, Republican presidential contender Newt Gingrich promises to wage a sharper and more aggressive campaign in the final two weeks before Iowa kicks off the party's nominating race.
Gingrich says he will be quicker to respond to attacks and more agile in getting his message across to voters who may have lost faith in him after rivals launched a withering barrage of criticism of his past as a Washington insider.
A 44-stop bus tour in the run-up to the January 3 Iowa caucus, daily calls with supporters to respond to new criticisms and another round of television ads will be cornerstones of the response by Gingrich, who will focus most of his efforts in Iowa for the next two weeks.
"I think a certain amount of drop in polls was to be expected given the amount of negative campaigning that has been going on," said Linda Upmeyer, the Iowa House Republican leader and the state chairwoman of Gingrich's campaign.
"But there are a lot of people out there who have not made up their minds yet," she said. "The challenge is to make sure that people have accurate information, and to get them the facts as quickly as we can."
The question for Gingrich will be whether he has enough time to rebound in the two weeks left to campaign in Iowa or if he has begun a political free-fall that will be hard to stop.
"The problem is he has probably waited too long," said Craig Robinson, former political director for the Iowa Republican Party. "This is the frantic finish. The clock might run out on him."

No two ways about it: At this point in the election cycle, running around threads attacking one candidate, without presenting an alternative, is textbook spamming.
I think you're ignoring what is going on in Iowa. It's all well and good for Newt to go on O'Reilly and defend himself, but he's up against several Ron Paul commericials an hour, all day long.
You can learn from others here when the focus remains on the subject. Nobody learns from ad hominem arguments except that those using them are mean-spirited and lessen the stature of themselves and the cause for which they supposedly stand.
People who hate Newt and want to see Myth nominated are imune to facts. No sentient being could watch this and think Newt is a Global Warming Nut. He schools Newt and Pigman Waxman.
Some folks are immune to facts that contradict their narratives.

And save your objections that you don’t want to see Romney get the nod. Myth and Newt, that’s your choice. Trash Newt, you get Myth.

That's why I said Newt needs to start fighting back hard. Romney has outspent Newt 35 to 1 and can't even pull ahead in Iowa. If Newt launches an offensive campaign (such as he has begun to do), it's only a matter of time, imo, that he begins to rebound. As a matter of fact, he seems to already be doing so.
That being said, this is a CONSERVATIVE web forum. You can be a libertarian Republican. You can be a conservative republican. You can't pick your friend's nose, and you can't be a "libertarian conservative." Ron Paul and his supporters are fair game, if the insist on hanging out here.
Now that Ron Paul’s little newsletter problem is starting to see the light of day, his mini-surge will be short- lived. That puts us back at Romney Vs. “not Romeny.”
I would be thrilled to see Santorum make a run, but I can’t see how this would be possible. That leaves Gingrich and possibly Perry, as far as I can tell. I choose Gingrich.
It would be nice for him to win Iowa, and he still might, but he never really cared about it.
More like axelfraud smiling at the success of his stealth henchghouls destroying the conservative mnomentum and dividing his bassturd boy’s opposition. With conservatives, especially ultra-conservatives, perfect is enemy of the good.
If not Newt, who?
There are three types of people attacking Gingrich right now:
Liberals.
Romney Supporters.
People too stupid to understand that the only person they are helping is Romney.
yep, I agree.
Any of the others (...except Ron Paul)
Yikes! Not Romney either.
(It makes as much sense as voting for Gingrich just to stop Romney)

Hmmm: "Ten Committments You Can Make To Protect The Enviornment Now"
Nope. I have no idea what you are talking about.
I don't think you do either.
What “really” happened there was a continuation of Newtonian “environmentalist” behavior since about the late 1990s. He even came out against oil/gas in his book ‘Contract with the Earth’, one of those bestselling achievements he always pumps when he has an interview. Just because you’ve fallen for the Newt election propaganda doesn’t mean everyone else has to.
It’s people like you who are forcing us to choose between two different RINOs, when we have candidates with better principles to choose from. Even Perry with his immigration problem has a better character than Newt.
You apologist, in that book Newt does the same thing he always does. He tackles fake BS liberal problems with alleged “conservative” solutions. You even wrote that he wrote that book “two years” before the scandal, yet Newt won’t even condemn the global warming crud when pressed on it. You’ve been brainwashed, and like most people who have been abused, you want to become an abuser yourself and force all of us to become just like you. It’s a vicious cycle.
That’s it!

Good. Let them vote for Paul, and then you’ll see total panic among the elites including that skinny dumb @ss Ann Coulter. Newt is in for the long haul. He places in Iowa and NH then he hits them hard in SC and FL. I’m not in panic mode like everyone else is here.
