I am beginning to think that the nature and level of attacks being launched by Mitt Romney against Newt Gingrich, which he would surely use against any conservative threatening his nomination, are going to make it very difficult for Romney to unite the different factions of the GOP and the conservative movement behind his candidacy should he win the nomination. While I have said that I would vote for Rick Santorum, I am appalled at the "anything goes" assault on Gingrich. See here:
Romney is not a conservative in the traditional sense, and he has a record of big-government Republicanism. Even many years after the success of the Reagan administration, he sought to distance himself from Reagan and the GOP, self-identifying as a progressive and independent. Thus, he resorts to spending multi-millions of dollars trashing his opponents, rather than providing thoughtful arguments on conservatism and constitutionalism. Lest we forget, it was Gingrich who was trying to run a positive campaign and who offered to debate Romney one-on-one, asking Romney to stop with the millions in unanswered ads attacking him. Romney declined. I have no doubt that Romney would do the same thing to Santorum if Santorum was rising in the polls, albeit on different issues.

FYI and comment (here or on your show on Monday).
Just read something where Fred Thompson says Romney has Drudge in his pocket or rather his staff is bragging about it.
Is there no one on our side? Are they all going to sell the American people and America out for the greedy selves. They don’t deserve to live in America and call themselves Americans if they don’t stand up.
I work in grassroots. We are hitting a head wind with all of these Conservative talkers covering for a liberal who put into law socialized medicine..
We are going to end up with Obama.
Supporters of liberty will be so depressed, they will never get out to vote in record numbers to stop Obama.
Pray for Newt...pray for America.
Wow. Levin said barely anything about Drudge and yet you are pushing it all out of proportion. Levin is a patriot and this column proves it. As does his radio show - every single day - as you well know it.
Willard does. Levin is blind to it. But then again, Levin supporting Santorum who has basically suspended his campaign makes ZERO sense.
Are these guys ratings higher with libs in office?
Is it all about money for Levin? And Rush? And Savage?
See this FR thread:
The Calculations That Led Romney to the Warpath (Details on M. Drudge, M. Rhoades, J. Curl, C. Hurt)
The link to the source is the same article that Levin links on his Facebook page.
Chrsite....yes it’s tough right now but plug away just the same....the people still have to vote and many are praying God himself will move the masses to Newt....but we do our part as thing moves along.
When you said headwind I thought of the deciples on the boat in a storm...while Jesus slept....good story.

Do Drudge’s viewings rise with libs in the WH?
Rush was a part of that attack, a major, devastating part of it.
“Why Mark so forcefully chose to come to Drudge’s defense is unknown.”
No comment.
But it sure is funny how Drudge and some individuals of “excellence” in broadcasting fame have failed to mention the negatives on Romney.
Levin seems to be the only conservative talker who isn’t in need of a dose of mental Viagra after this past week.
Maybe that’s whey he’s called The Great One...
You can listen for yourself, after the first break in Friday's show, Levin telling us to lay off Drudge, that he's done so much good for the country and journalism, etc. Defends his putting up links - some days more than others. And he said he's a good friend of Drudge.

Mark also said he would support Romney if he is the candidate - on that I am personally conflicted.
That's because with Romney, there's no there there. Empty suit, used car salesman, a la Obama.
