Newt Gingrich has a 100% name ID, has a 60% national unfavorable number and it’s a number so high that with the 100% name ID it’s impossible to come back from.

Schmidt -- and the entire "Establishment" -- rely upon a reality that consists of media-created numbers.

So, Newt has a 60% unfavorable rating. And Palin has a 60% unfavorable rating. Who created those numbers, if not the media?

Yet, with the vast majority of people, the media is beneath contempt. Fewer than 20% of the people believe what they report. Respect for journalists is even worse than lawyers.

Consider the crowd reaction every time Newt scores against the media moderators. Does that sound like an audience that believes and respects the media, as an institution?

If we accept that the high unfavorables are a creation of the media, we must also recognize that they are an illusion -- as distinct from reality.

The media is a paper tiger. And the unfavorable ratings for any Republican are a fragile fabrication.

Newt just blasted through the left and LSM’s biggest meme that he can’t get the women’s vote.

Let’s laugh and see what other can’t-do memes they try to throw at us.

The media will really hate Newt because he is against SOPA.
