The surging Newt Gingrich has mastered debates and disguise.
The debate part is clear: The former Speaker of the House comes to play and owns the stage with an uncanny capacity to connect with the grievances of conservative voters.
The disguise part is clear, too. Gingrich has used his debate skills and his instinct to hit the raw nerves of conservatives to camouflage considerable weaknesses as a candidate. The three wives, and cheating on and leaving the first two while they were ill; inconsistency on the most consequential conservative causes of the past decade; episodic bouts of self-importance severe even by politicians standards; and countless tales of erratic leadership in crisis

I am loving this in a perverse way. The far left is so puckered up with the idea that Obama may have to face a real fighter and someone who will call him out, toe-to-toe, just has these political children in a tizzy.

Just sit back and enjoy the combustion with media and long term R’s.... This is backfiring and they have no clue who the people are anymore. Its actually hilarious.
Politico is a funny one to complain about disguises.
Perhaps that is because he has taken the time to study the grievances of conservative voters and come up with ideas to solve those problems. That is much more preferable than simply parroting platitudes: "I love America. I am a successful businessman. I want all Americans to be successful businessmen so vote for me."
Two simple reasons for Newt’s SC victory:
#1 The people loathe Obama and how he has wrecked our country
#2 The people loathe the main stream media for protecting Obama and the Leftists.
Nothing more; nothing less
Is Newt Lex Suthor or Superman?
They did this with Dick Cheney too. “He’s too smart for conservatives/Republicans and has them hoodwinked. And he keeps tricking us too.” - Liberal Media
What are they all wound up about? I thought they were afraid of Mit.
I prefer Santorum. I’ll take Newt if I have to. I’d vote for a paper weight for president before I’ll vot for Obama. I just don’t want to have to hold my nose and vote for Romney. I’m still recovering from having to vote for McCain.
....I mean Luthor. (Not Suthor).
Geez!
Oh, Big Media is absolutely terrified that the Republicans will nominate someone who will actually take Obama to task for his policy idiocy, his racial divisiveness, his hiring of incompetents, his laziness, etc. etc. .... you know, all the relevant issues that Big Media refuses to talk about.
Newt could wake up the slumbering American public .... ergo, he must be destroyed. And preferably sooner, before the message gets out.
>> The three wives, and cheating on and leaving the first two while they were ill;
Unlike Obama who cheated on America. Obama believed after all during his 2008 campaign that marriage was between one man and one woman.
I don't give a crap about the wives part, but all of the above is stone cold true. If we nominate Gingrich, we are taking an enormous risk. Granted...to risk is to potentially achieve great things. BUT enormous risk should not be taken lightly, nor should we dismiss the truth because it's inconvenient.
Also, I don't think Gingrich is capable of bringing all segments of the Republican Party together, let alone attract enough independents and disaffected Dems to beat Obama. Between conservatives and moderates in the Republican Party, the divide is so deep, the vitriol so hateful, that I don't see how the wounds can be healed or even papered over. So I truly believe Obama coasts to victory this November.
Newt did the morning shows yesterday and every one (David Gregort etc) wanted him to tone down his rhetoric (to “connect with independent voters” - aka stop telling the truth about Obama).
Newt smashed back as usual, saying the “elite media refuses to look into Obama’s Saul Alinsky radicalism.”
The lib media is going to go in for the kill. They know Newt is a truth telling bomb thrower and doesn’t buy into the lib media rules (i.e. Repubs aren’t allowed to mention Obama’s background)
Meanwhile Mittens says Obama is a “nice guy just in over his head.” And he wonders why he is in the process of scoring the biggest political collapse in history. LOL!
Not merely incompetent...overt anti-American communist anti-constitutionalists in every single cabinet position and "czar".
Which John Boehner and Eric Cantor refuse to shut down.
And the drivel excuse is always, well we don't control the Senate. The House btw has the authority to IMPEACH not just the President...but the Senate "majority" leader.
Bump! This is precisely what is going on.
The voters have HAD it with the RINO apologists for Obama's malicious communist tyranny.
