Wasn't it Jean Francoise Kerrie' who said "I can't believe I'm losing to this moron" in 2004?

Liberals-- gotta love 'em.

Maybe they will take their ‘cash for clunkers’ campaign and go home.

I don't think anybody has yet properly assessed Gingrich's spanking of CNN and John King.

For me t was a stand up and cheer moment when Gingrich simply said "No" when the media elites tried to open the DC debates with his personal life.

Why Gingrich won — Why Romney lost

Cause Gingrich is brilliant and Mitt is a stiff.

Will Romney and his band of elites ever realize that people just don’t like him?

Newt has advisors. He loses them to Perry.
Perry is at 35%. These new advisors he hires help him to 6% immediately.
Bachmann, with highly paid Rollins, crashes and burns.
Cain, with no advisors, surges.
Then Newt, without his advisors, surges.

Hmm.

Maybe it’s a good thing not to have these advisors.

Their egos are so big they can’t see past them, hope they continue in that frame of mind.

Newt won because he’s an intelligent man with a spine of steel. He doesn’t put his finger in the air to see which way the wind is blowing and he tells liberals exactly what they are....liars.

R-Money is a snakeoil salesman who loves himself more than he loves this country. Whether than telling us what he will do, he repeatedly tries to sell us the fact that he was a businessman with years of experience. Okay, but I believe corporate raider would be more accurate. He would work with liberals every chance he gets. RINO!

Santorum, the only use he will be is to endorse R-Money like he did in 2008.

Paul, Fruitloop, antisemite, and a joke beyond comprehension. He needs to fold-up the quackerfactory and move on.

It seems that the more America is lead by experts the worse the results become. Most Americans get that.

“In their view, Gingrich has barely run a campaign. As they see it, Team Gingrich doesn’t have the money, professionalism, brains, or organization of the Romney campaign........”

and Romney campaign accuses Newt of being “Grandiose”, and “egotistical”. That statement shows how “Grandiose”, and “egotistical” they, the Romney team as a lot think of themselves.

“.....And most of all, they see Gingrich as a candidate who owes his very existence to the never-ending series of Republican debates — and not much more.”

Those debates that show Romney as doofus as Obama.

I KNOW EXACTLY WHY ROMNEY LOST:
Romney was SUPPOSED TO LOSE: to OBAMA.

The fix was in. The ESTABLISHMENT of both parties had it worked out. Romney was supposed to waltz to the Republican nomination. Then OBAMA was going to drop the BAIN BOMB on Romney and Romney's inability to explain venture capital to the average voter was supposed to take Obama to victory.

INSTEAD, it was BOMB-THROWER NEWT who out of right field threw the left hook that Obama was primed to deliver. The ESTABLISHMENT of both parties was blindsided. This wasn't supposed to happen.

Romney's fall began with Newt on Bain. All the pundits were as shocked as the rest of the Establishment that Newt would

come at Romney from the left and

deliberately upset the fix that the Establishment had set up.

God Speed Newt and watch your back!

Romney lost because he is a stink’n liberal and SC didn’t want him for that reason.

Might we inform the members of "Romney's inner circle" cited in this article that the brave individuals who gave us our Constitution in 1787 might not have fitted their definitions either, but the clear explanations of the ideas of liberty flowed easily from their lips, and "the People" of their day responded and ratified that Constitution.

Their candidate (Romney) may have the money, the major press of both the Left and the Right, the "Establishment politicians" who don't want their boats rocked, and organizations in each state; however, if "the People," as in all but a handful of counties in South Carolina and other states, don't believe he has the intellectual capability to persuade a majority of citizens to embrace the ideas of liberty and to vote to reject the tyranny that Obama advocates, then he cannot be a winner in 2012.

The people of SC were perceptive, and they are representative of all of us who do not intend to let money, media, Party bigwigs, or anyone else choose the candidate we will select to represent us. The battle for our posterity's liberty is too important for that.

Romney will lose because he looks like a deer in headlights. Will someone please tell him a white business shirt DOES NOT go with the blue jeans. All his money and advisors can’t figure that out? It reminds me of McCain saying “My friends” ad nauseam and no one telling him to stop it.

That is because Mitt thinks he is in a beauty pageant and he has already paid off the judges.

Here is the money quote of the article:

“But Gingrich kept the crowd with him the whole way, and in the end had engaged his audience more than Romney could have hoped for. Gingrich RESPECTED them enough to discuss issues WITH THEM seriously.” (emphasis added)

Big media and GOP elite take note!
