Reminds me of Newt’s very successful “contract with America” in the 90’s. Why haven’t the Repubs tried something like that again?

Because the media laughed at it and claimed it was a failure.

The Beltway Republicans believed them.

Ted Cruz is the guy we should elect President. That’s why we probably won’t.

“Newt” was clear on what he would do in the hours immediately following inauguration if he were to be elected but it’s a little too early for Senator Cruz to do that. I’m surprised Newt hasn’t endorsed Senator Cruz but it is early. Senator Cruz has many of Newt’s attributes but without the baggage.

1. Too much work
2. Too conservative
3. Too easy for public to hold them accountable
4. Too many bad articles by the media
5. Too many phone calls from the public

Should I go on ..???????????????

These excuses are why you need a Cruz/Walker type of person who will not be swayed by what the public or the media has to say about them.
