It wasn’t Lehman Brothers going down the drain and the economy plunging into the abyss at the time.With our party the incumbent one. Or McCain’s reaction at the time, acting like a nut. I remember the time, you could feel the panic everywhere. Maybe you are right, it wasn’t a full panic economic crisis at the time that had an influence, it was a few interviews, which most voters never heard of, by a few Romney staffers that changed the election. When you consider the events of the fall of 2008, our ticket did not do that badly. I do know it was McCain’s top staffers who did the trashing in print and film.

Don’t care - I’d still vote for him compared to the various losers that ran...or is running now.

In this campaign contest, it was the money raised in the 2008 election cycle that made the best campaign. However, money does not always measure who is the best man. As for Romney, we got an adequate candidate to take out Zer0. We could have had a superman with Gingrich.

No, Rick Perry’s was the worst in history. He capped it off by endorsing Newt..and then Romney.

The worst campaign was Fred Thompson. No doubt about that.

yep. Thompson sold out to the traitor-senator John Glenn, which lowered Fred to the moral level of "hug-your-captor" McCain.

Lot of sewage in the GOP sh*t-house.

Newt took on the media and Obama like no one else.The whole month of March Obama had to respond to Newt Gingrich and his energy policy.

Joseph Kurl is an ant compared to Newt Gingrich.What a sopohomoric, shallow column.

Newt at least went into the arena. Joseph Kurl makes a living being a spectator,and accomplishes as much.

Another day, another GOP-e media attack on Newt. The Stupid Party sure hates its conservatives, especially those who have done so much for it. First Palin, now Gingrich. Who’s next?

Wouldn’t be too surprising, after all, Hillary was involved in securities fraud with a broker at the Chicago Mercantile many years ago. She got off scott free and sold her broker up the river, but there could always be some folks in Chicago with evidence laying around.

No way. Phil Davidson ran the worst campaign in history, for Stark County Treasurer. Well, maybe it's the best if you want to laugh yourself to death, but otherwise, it's the worst.
