Why I support Newt Gingrich, Posted by garfieldjl (Diary)

“A Romney supporter asked me to post why I think Gingrich is the best candidate. So here it goes.

The reasons I support Gingrich are the following.

He gives big ideas, and proposes solutions to fix things, not kick the can down the road. I want things fixed, not popping up again 5 years later.
He knows Washington DC politics, he knows about how everything has been mismanaged, and like the bullet-point above he proposes solutions.
He is able to take the MSM to task and make them look like idiots on live TV.
I think he is fairly charismatic, which would help against Obama.
Unlike the ideologue in the White House, Gingrich comes up with tons of ideas, while this is incredibly annoying when things are going well for the country, it is critical for when we are in crisis. If idea A doesn’t work, Gingrich won’t keep trying to use A, he’ll switch to B, if that doesn’t work he’ll go to C.
His record as Speaker of the House, Contract with America, a Balanced Budget, etc.
The fact the establishment hates him, he may once have been an insider, but he’s clearly an outsider now.
He’s able to explain Conservatism a lot better than the other candidates.
He would be incredibly hard for Obama to attack, because Obama’s own baggage would get in the way.
Gingrich has a clear line of attack on Obama’s baggage.
I admire Gingrich’s determination and refusing to give up.”

Why I support Newt Gingrich

Because:

I support the Unalienable Rights described in the Declaration of Independence,

I support the US Constitution, and specifically the 1st, 2nd, 5th, 9th and 10th Amendments to the Constitution by fighting against those who would abridge them

I support the abolition of the EPA and look to remake the Department of Education from the ground up

I support a American Energy Independence Policy, want to see drilling opened wide and money no longer sent to our enemies

I want to see ObamaCare, Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank immediately repealed

I want to see the whole Government Service bureaucracy scrapped and replaced with a modern model, and stop paying the bureaucrats and crooks

I want to see the right to bear arms as a human right to defend oneself from the danger of tyranny , one that should be recognized everywhere

I want to see a Flat Tax rate go into effect and to see Government expenditures reduced to the size of Government Revenues and the death tax repealed

I support a strong national defense, a strong United States of America and path to its new prosperity.
