Well it was a tough primary with a bunch of bad choices but a great rule is to know exactly who you are fighting for.
Back then ~ a year ago I got cursed at a few times and even threatened (nothing came of it) by one of the Newt harpies for posting these on those 'Newt will save us' threads.

Sure enough, there’s Valerie Jarrett. Never more than a few yards away from Boy Zero.
My problem when it comes to Newt, is that I have developed an opinion regarding him over a long period of time. It’s a bunch of little things over time that have led me to recognize him for what he is.
So when his name comes up, people always remember the big good things he did. They don’t remember the myriad of stupid comments and misdeeds he has done over time.
It’s hard enough to convey a decision changing series of comments to others when there are massive misdeeds. It’s next to impossible if you’re just dealing with many small indicators.
Over time Newt became a no-go for me. Explaining the why of that, is what’s difficult.
