Posted on 12/30/2011 8:44:06 AM PST by iowamark

Des Moines, Iowa Friday, December 30, 2011

Newt Gingrich's Iowa campaign stops in Des Moines for a town hall-style meeting at Java Joe's Coffee House. The event is organized by the group CafeMom - a bipartisan online group. Their "Moms Matter 2012" initiative is intended to get more mothers involved in politics this campaign season. The former House speaker will be joined by his wife Callista, and GOP pollster Frank Luntz will moderate.

The organizers said that more than 100 Iowa moms responded to an invitation to meet with Mr. Gingrich.

Frank Luntz:

"Welcome to the Gingrich forum. Please use the electronic device to show your support for Mitt Romney. Let's get underway now."

"Ladies, please buzz in that you think Romney is wonderful!"

"Newt, hang on for a second. I'll be right with you."

"Ladies, if you think Mitt Romney is the most handsome candidate, please buzz in right NOW!" "Thank you! Overwhelming support for Mitt Romney."

"Newt, I said we'll be with you in the next segment."

"Now, ladies, obviously Mitt Romney is the most handsome candidate and the best choice for America, as I have already indicated to you. Please watch the graph surge to the top and buzz in with delight as you watch yourselves support Mitt Romney again. Ready? GO!!!!"

Newt sat on that stage and answered each and every question in a mature and reasonable manner. He "gets" the problems, understands them and provides his solutions (whether a person agrees with all of them, or not). Absolutely so far ahead of every other candidate it's a shame the "establishment republicans" are so far in the tank for Romney, who gets flustered with softball questions from Brett Baier on Fox News. Of course the only thing the LSM will write and talk about will be his getting teary-eyed talking about his mother.

I only caught the end but there was some very emotional responses by Newt when asked about his Mom and the difficulties faced by women and mothers.

Anyone who thinks women will not vote for Newt should take a look at the archive of this session.

He’s far and above the best candidate and I hope the lamstream writes about him crying when he spoke from his heart about his Mom.

He won the hearts of the moms in the audience and I’ll wager several viewers at home, too.

The Liberal News-Media (now joined by their The Usual E-RINO Suspects) will suffer an "epic fail" ...

as they DESPERATELY try to force a "faux disqualification" for Newt Gingrich in the upcoming Iowa Caucus and New Hampshire Primary.



I'm confident that Newt Gingrich will "decimate" Mitt Romney and Dr. Winkie (Ron Paul) in South Carolina and Florida ...


======================================


How many successful POTUS candidates have ever won the Iowa Caucus ?

In the last thirty-two (32) years ... only ONE Democrat (Obama in 2008) and ONE Republican (Bush-43 in 2000) have won BOTH the Iowa Caucus and the Presidential Election ...

Of course, that doesn't include "sitting" Presidents (Reagan, Clinton) who won Iowas on their way to a second term election ...

That presents odds of TWO (2) Iowa Caucus wins out of SIXTEEN (16) possible Presidential Election Candidates !

Equivalent to a Whopping twelve-point-five (12.5) percent success rate ...




How many successful POTUS candidates have ever won the New Hampshire Primary ?

In the last thirty-two (32) years ... only ONE Democrat (Carter in 1976) and TWO Republicans (Reagan-1980 and Bush-41 in 1988) have won BOTH the New Hampshire Primary and the Presidential Election ...

Of course, that doesn't include "sitting" Presidents (Reagan, Clinton) who won New Hampshire on their way to a second term election ...

That presents odds of THREE (3) New Hampshire wins out of FIFTEEN (15) possible Presidential Election Candidates !

Equivalent to a Whopping thirteen-three-three (13.33) percent success rate ...


======================================

Thank you for the latest in Iowa. Newt is my man and I mean 100%!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if Romney gets the gop nod..I won’t vote for him; if Paul gets it..I won’t vote for him either. America has the chance of a lifetime to elect one of the greatest presidents since Reagan...if it slips by...the chance will not come again in my lifetime.
How amazing that Paul and Romney spent 10 MILLION in attack ads and smears on Gingrich and yet he is still hanging in there. Amazing that Fox News aka The Mitt Romney Campaign Headquarters has bashed him consistantly. Even having their employees OPENLY endorse Romney on air!!!!!!!!!! fair and balanced..my irish arse. The Virginia fiasco stinks. Never heard of anything even similiar happening in my lifetime. THE FIX IS IN FOR ROMNEY. What I did discover about Mitt is that he will allow others to openly lie on the air (Iowa ads) and not retract one mistruth. He would sell his soul to win the presidency. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NEWT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOT WOOT!!!!
