Take a good long look at the Republican field with this in mind: Who is the one who can stand up to MSM and Democrat dirty tricks and scrutiny? I’ve done that, and for all his baggage, the answer is Newt among the remaining field.
Everyone has baggage. Everyone has issues we don’t like. No one is a shining star or ideal candidate. No one. I don’t like that. You don’t like that. But it’s the fact we have to deal with.
So, all things considered, the one thing we don’t need is a candidate who will pull punches, try to be nice and reasonable when the MSM and Democrats are tearing them apart because they have to “stay above it all”. Not this time. America is at stake, not just some election. America! And that means we need a candidate who won’t roll over but go for the gut.
If we lose, and it’s possible with any in the field at this time, I want to at least be able to say “We fought the good fight and didn’t cave”. And for me, that spells Gingrich.
As for the zot, I can’t speak to that. Wasn’t my decision, I had no input.
Yeah, Gingrich has show himself to be a feisty one. That’s good. We need a fighter, not someone who rolls over at the first sign of resistance.
I’m probably going to vote for Gingrich tomorrow, but mostly because I don’t want Romney to win SC. I keep thinking I might prefer Santorum out of the remaining field, but throwing my support there could just be stupid. It could help ensure a Romney win.
Here’s hoping that Gingrich can connect with the uninformed masses. Here’s hoping that he survives the savaging he gets from the media and his opponents.
