I believe that any candidate that openly says he will abort ObamaCare will have a very hard time winning the general election.
Honesty does not win elections - - read up on your Machiavelli. Newt has rounded up the angry conservative crowd, confirmed by the anger on this thread. That is not enough to win an election. He has some appeal with the independents, but that is not solid. It still does not give him enough. And Newt has ZERO appeal with the mild Democrats; the non-rabid Democrats that I have talked to respect Romney, but hate Gingrich.
In other words, the reason ‘real’ conservatives are happy with Gingrich is the reason why all Democrats and many independents hate him. Democrats will be inspired to vote against Newt, but not against Romney (IMHO).
To win, the Republican must focus on the economy and the debt. That’s the winner.
What do you think Obamacare and Obama’s czars and heavy handed, beyond intrusive regulations are doing to this economy and our debt?
Gingrich’s speech tonight .. sure covers a lot of
economic and moral issues that folks crave:
Those to whom you’re talking certainly aren’t reflective
of the diehard conservatives in this nation, and MOST
definitely NOT on this site.
Really???
It's not enough???
Gee, after getting all my news from FR the last few years I am convinced that as Freepers go, so goes the nation.

True.
