Rush was very much defending Newt today. Guess you didn’t listen.
He mentioned all the attacks on Newt suddenly coming out and he was as bewildered about it as we all are.
He was active in politics back in the Reagan era and never, ever heard anything negative about Newt against Reagan.
He also mentioned that Nancy Reagan and Michael Reagan both liked Newt. In fact, Michael has endorsed him.
Something weird is happening. Rush doesn’t know. I don’t know. Does anyone?
All I know is money is exchanging hands and an agenda is being filled.
The clip about Newt bashing Reagan is a total fraud. It has been seriously edited to make it appear that way. Matt Drudge knows this. He is dishonest, really. The clip if seen is about Newt supporting Reagan. Drudge is a jerk with an agenda.
See 22 as a theory. Controlled release.
My best guess is that Romney and the elite Republicans know that if Mitt doesn’t win Florida, it’s all over for him. The reek of failure about him will be too strong and Newt will have all the momentum. They are firing their greatest volley against Newt in one last, desperate attempt to get Mitt a win.
The good thing about this, though, is even if Mitt does win Florida, they have spent probably all of their ammunition. Losing Florida, Newt could hang on and still win the nomination.
I am noticing too, that Newt, despite having the momentum coming out of South Carolina, seems to have that underdog charm about him. People who care want him to beat Mr. Plastic Teeth and Hair. Romney personifies that Joe Popular/Big Man on Campus that everyone hates.
“Something weird is happening”
You can say that again!
