POLITICO's Ginger Gibson reports:

Newt Gingrich still won't congratulate Mitt Romney for winning the Iowa caucuses.

At a news conference in Concord, N.H., Gingrich was asked by CBS correspondent Dean Reynolds why he congratulated Rick Santorum but not Romney.

Gingrich stared at the reporter and raised his eyebrows in silence, eventually drawing laughter from some of the reporters. "Because I know you would be a man of great professionalism, I know that's a rhetorical question. And a good one," Gingrich said.

During his speech in Des Moines last night, Gingrich visibly seethed at mention of Romney, who along with his supporters ran a barrage of attack ads against the former speaker. Romney said he'd spoken with every GOP rival last night except Gingrich.

You mean he is not a hypocrite. You don’t reward evil and romney is just evil.
Would you thank osama for 9/11 because it ‘brought the country together’?

In fact, if this post goes to 250 and the MuttBot chimes just once after this post, I’ll pony up $25 on top of my usual Freepathon donations.

You are obviously a Rombot. Come clean. Get your reward.

You apparently don’t know the definition of amnesty.

First he announces he’s going to be the nominee (”look at the polls - I’m clearly going to get the nomination”)

Now you are lying, Romney style. We don't cotton to Romney supporting liars areound here, noob...

C’mon Teddy - Game is ON! Play ball!

This reminds me of Hillary supporters complaining that Rick Lazio invaded her personal space. Politics ain't beanbag, Mitt. Put on the big boys pants and man up, Mittens. Looks like Mitt is the one crying because he didn't get “congratulated.”

[teddyballgame1]

pony up.

“Oh, boo hoo, Newt didn’t congratulate me.” You don’t deserve it Mittens. Back in your gutter.

Romney est une secousse- Forgive my french.

[org.whodat]

Only in your mind, not following the law is amnesty, and noot supports amnesty.

[don-o]

Reading comp - Fail for you.

So do tell more about your support of Romney. All the cool kids really want to hear.

IBTZ!!

No, the thread implies Gingrich is a cry baby.

Didn't you just impugn another FReepers for "name-calling?" Way to pull one out from Kindergarten.

[don-o]

You just made it. He’s dead, Jim

[Palladin]

Soreloserman!

Sorry but you are wrong, noot did say he was going to be the nominee. That was when he had four foot wide polling in Iowa, he over looked it was as thin as water colors.

Rombot,

Your idol, sore Losin’ Willard never congratulated Huck after the ‘08 caucus. As a matter of fact, Willard left town BEFORE the final landslide results were in.

Kinda cowardly of the Massachusetts Liberal.

Sorry but you are wrong, noot did say he was going to be the nominee.

Sorry but YOU are wrong. Newt said "If the polls stay the way they are now, I will be the nominee."
