Sadly, Newts private life WILL be an issue in the General.
Liberals will HOWL HYPOCRITE!
I don't think liberals are going to be voting for the Republican nominee.
Newt's marital life is one of the things I have a problem with. But he's not Mitt Romney and he's not Barry Obama.
And while you know very well that I'm not a fan of Rick Perry, I think Rick Perry had it right when he endorsed Gingrich and spoke about how forgiveness and redemption are important to Christians.
I will never vote for Mitt Romney or Obama, but I could have voted for Perry, could have voted for Santorum and can vote for Newt. Watching the debate tonight, I pictured Obama in place of the other three candidates debating Santorum, and it didn't leave me with a good feeling. Whether we like it or not, these stupid debates and being able to clearly articulate your ideas and keeping the focus on Obama are important.
Santorum has good intentions, but he was either pissy that he didn't get Rick Perry's endorsement or that he wasn't getting the respect for Iowa that he thought he deserved, and he did his best to imitate Michelle Bachmann.
I cannot see the Rick Santorum that we all saw tonight doing well against Obama. I think he could probably beat Obama, but we'd be on pins and needles.
The fact that Santorum took his spat with Newt into the post-debate interviews reinforced that fact.

I think Newt defended himself very well, and Perry’s praying on it did not hurt.

I’m just seeing the first half hour of the debate now.
Newt slammed a homer when he said:
“The reason Obama has your kids on your insurance till they are 26 is because they cant pay for their own. I have a message for the parents of America, I will give your children jobs so they can make their own way”!
