Welcome to Free Republic - it’s a great place!

I’m for Newt but afraid the writing is on the wall - not enough people agree with me, and Sarah, and Todd, and Haley Barbour...etc etc etc.

Any advise for a newbie?

Always be logged in, watch out for moose, revere the power of cheese, and post a vanity at least once a week, preferably in the News forum.

Always preview your replies.
Don’t take things personal.
Some things are better left unsaid.
Welcome to FR.

Personally I think Newt can better vocalize the basics
of conservativism better than Rick. I think he will
beat the stuffing out of Obama but they aren’t going
down easy. If you thought the primary was rough get
ready for what the left is bringing.

Welcome to one Christian dad from a Christian mom. Senior citizen mom that is.....

We are going with Santorum but would be thrilled with NEWT too... watch out though, you might be eaten alive by some very sincere Newt supporters! lol

Advice #1: Don’t post vanities as a newbie. Instead, join existing threads where these topics are being discussed and ask your questions there. You’ll be surprised how many responses you get that way. (I only say this because I anticipate you are about to get flamed.)

Advice #2: Vote your conscience. JimRob is pro-Newt. I personally think he is very smart and wonkish, but is not particularly “likeable” which will hurt him in the election. Plus, he has baggage, even though some of it is debatable. That being said, I voted for him in the SC primary just to be sure Romney didn’t win. At that time, Santorum wasn’t a viable choice in SC. I would have be more proud to vote for Santorum. My wife did. Now that he’s sort of on-the-rise, she can feel better about her vote than I feel about my Gingrich vote.

When all is said and done, I’m not overly thrilled with the field as a whole. I probably would still be backing Cain if he was still in, solely because he was an outsider who wasn’t afraid to propose radical ideas. (I’d love to know why those accusers have all disappeared now!)

Welcome to FR. You poor thing. Do you realize that you just offered yourself up as fresh meat? You’re about to get hazed. Try not to take it personally. Think of it as an initiation. Have some fun with it.

Sure, there's this guy around here who goes by the name JimRob, write a PM him to him and tell him you want to help Romney get the nomination. Right away that will probably unlock the "bouncing betty" and maybe the "smaw" which can be very useful around here for smacking down concern trolls ...

my gut tells me to support the most conservative in the race.

Well then Newt should be your man as his record for conservative accomplishments outdoes Santorum 's accomplishments in every sense of the word. ..in fact Sanotrum is a big government guy which of course opposes conservativism.

Against Obama it's a no brainer Newt has the upper hand. Santorum cannot think fast enough on his feet to answer without stumbling around trying to remember the last coahing he got on how he needs to answer. Newt "OWNS" his opinions....they are his and not borrowed from others.

At any rate Welcome to Free Republic...and may what you learn here help you choose the best man for the job....after all this about interviews....and Newt's resume far exceeds Santorums.
