I love Newt’s ability to speak, but he would have been blown out even worse than Mitt. They beat Mitt by making things up about his past in ad after ad, they wouldn’t have had to make up much about Newt’s past.

The only thing they had on Newt was his three marriages, that was it of any consequence in comparison to the lousy, progressive, left-wing record of Romney.

They will beat up whomever is the GOP candidate, we need to ignore it like it is just so much noise and nominate someone who can articulate conservatism and conservative positions BOTH OF WHICH, Romney could not do, because Romney is the furthest thing from a conservative in the GOP.

You got it.

Newt was my choice as the primaries rolled through, but I think Newt would have been destroyed early by the democrat/media onslaught. They did it once, and he was just thawed meat waiting to be wacked again. We have a fierce opponent in the MSM/democrat complex, it's not going away. In front of our eyes, it's turned a moderate (W Bush) in to a fire breathing right wing extremist, it's turned a mushy RINO (Romney) in to a mean spirited, evil capitalist world destroying extremist, I can't imagine what they would have done to Newt.
