Very well said..both are movers and shakers. Not afraid to stand up to the powerful and fight for change. They rattle the comfort zone of the establishment and liberals who want to maintain their easy street grip on DC.

Hmmmm, now where is that word, “legion,” mentioned in the Bible?
Well then, I guess Romney is 'insane'. To quote Allahpundit from Hot Air:
He (Romney) doesn’t care if his rallies leave you flat. He doesn’t care if pulling the lever for him reduces you to dry heaves in the voting booth. He cares about two things: 1,144 and 270, and he’s likely to achieve at least the first thanks to hard work, careful planning, and the great good luck of having extraordinarily weak competition. Those qualities — high energy, fortitude, diligence, not needing to be liked — could be huge assets in a president if he applied them to enacting a worthy policy agenda, starting with entitlement reform. But I don’t think he’d use them to policy ends; he’d use them to position himself for re-election by pandering to centrists, which means no meaningful entitlement reform or anything else. He’s telling you right here why he’d be such a risk in office to the right. When push comes to shove, you’ll always hold your nose and vote against the Democrat, no matter how annoyed at him you might be. And he knows it — and he doesn’t care. He doesn’t need his base to like him. That’s a recipe for squishiness.
Romney: Very conservative voters might not be with me now but they will be in November
I agree. The people need to be allowed to vote, instead of being told by "experts" who will be the candidate. Maybe it will turn out badly ... but what's this we have now, anyway?
This whole campaign has been a wasted opportunity for our voters. It’s a shame really. But a few things are clear:
People without ability resent ability.
People without intelligence resent intelligence.
People without confidence resent confidence and call it arrogance.
People without accomplishment tend to nit pick imperfections.
Newt is by far the most capable. But WTH, RS has 7 kids! Whoopee!

Is ensuring that Obama (the most pro-ABORT politician in the USA) is reelected... evil?
I just saw this and wanted to share:

In it, an interviewer askes O what he thinks would be a fair price for Americans to pay for gasoline at the pump.
In asking, the interviewer mentions that “your opponents” say $2.50 per gallon is blah blah blah.....”
But guess who is the only opponent who does that and who has the American Engergy Plan to back it up?
And guess who wasn’t named by the questioner?
Oh, my.
Michele Bachmann had that idea months ago. She was treated horribly here.
Engergy = Energy

LOL at your post on Newt supporters hating a “true” conservative like Santorum as you expand on calling Newt “selfish and an idiot”
Newt is certainly not happy with the multi million dollar attacks and lies launched against him by the Romney campaign and neither are the Newt supporters.
Too bad you are unable to grasp the fact that many of us support Newt because we believe in him. We know of his accomplishments and we are not convinced Santorum is presidential material.
Just because he got a free pass for so long and the vetting of RS didnt even begin until late in the game..doesnt mean we are going to jump on his bandwagon.
As for me...I will do a write in for Newt but no to Santorum. If the voter’s want Santorum..let him win on his own merits..not on the chance that the Newt folks will rally behind him. He already won ONE election thanks to Newt’s gop revolution. He is on his own.
The lack of common sense becomes even MORE obvious.
This isn’t about Michele Bachmann.
Newt stealing from Michele Bachmann.
Is an insane thought.
You were pinged to show you that the media interviewer credited all of O’s opponents with calling for that gasoline price and getting there by a totally American Energy Policy.
When it isn’t “his opponents”, it’s Newt.
Now I will use the post to inform anyone with a less than insane thought process in response, who happens to be reading.
For the record, I didn’t treat her horribly. And she made herself a non factor by her own actions.
Neither here nor there, anyway.
Again, that link, to get to the point, which you ignored or were incapable of getting, or tried to cover up, is:

Go there to find out that an interviewer of O credited “your opponents” with the gasoline price goal of $2.50 per gallon, when the truth is it was Newt he had to be thinking of, but Newt wasn’t named.
Perhaps the same reasoning could be said of Newt.
The others who have dropped out were wise enough to know they were a non factor and made the decision to do the right thing.
I am not surprised that Newt is unable to accept that simple fact with grace.
There is a very glaring reason that Newt isn't doing well, but he is too old and arrogant to fix it.
That should be printed onto a motivational poster. Excellent analysis.
