yup, good ol' Newt left the House in disgrace. What better person to represent the republican party. After all the republican party is pretty much a disgrace into itself. I guess humping your staff doesn't reflect on one's character. Fact it, Newt has the moral of Bill Clinton.
Good morning onyx. Newt will not listen to Morris. He is much more intelligent than Morris and doesn't need him to make a decision.
Reagan wasn't a milquetoast.
I said this on a thread a few weeks ago:
You listen to Newt and are amazed at how great his ideas are, until you realize: "Hey, we don't have any matter/energy transporters!"
Newt wouldn't be a bad choice. Better than the anointed one.
Good morning to you as well. Got any storms brewing in TX? Awfully cold here --- 30 degrees.
No storms in the Dallas area. The panhandle (Lubbock) gets hit the worst. It will be near 50 today and getting better in the next 5 days.
(Im cooking lunch so I havent been able to get back to you until now.)
I am glad you are for Newt, but you need to tighten your belt (man or woman).
The presidents you mentioned (ex and present) were and are on other peoples payrolls which are not us the people.
Dont be so beaten down by facts you imagined or read that are out there about folks fearing his intellect and being too conservative. Catch the big wave and join the rest of us. Dont cave in.
You summed up your loyalty with the dedication to your wife in your book 'To Renew America' before you divorced her.
"To Marianne, who made it all worthwhile"
This is all about renewing Gingrich to whatever loyalty currently owns him.
..in order to mend fences with religious conservatives, Newt would have to give an accounting of some of his dirty laundry that, IMO, could not withstand the scrutiny...
?!
After being treated rather badly as Speaker, Newt may not want the top slot. And he is something of a plus and generally acceptable to all party factions.
I don't think he wants the presidency, and he would make an incredible vp... let's hope we are right.
What I am trying to say is
dont let the turkeys get you down. Learn to soar with the eagles. Think positive, and act in accordance. Put that negativism in the trash. It will only make you ill.
My best regards.
in which case, why worry about how many democrats come out because no republicans would show up??????
Me too, I hope that he wins the nomination. He is the only candidate that I really even remotely like.
What is in Newt's past? He was cleared of all the ethics charges brought against him. It's just too bad that the stupid Republicans were too chicken to go to bat for him. They were all scared of their shadows.
Also, all Newts skeletons are out of the closet. His closet is clean. This cant be said for the candidates. (Yes, I know. Newt is not yet a candidate.)
Wow, for some reason you are really peeved at Newt, aren't you ?!
what an awful, cynical view of things.... one with which i could not disagree more strongly. Ideas do matter and ideas do win elections, even national ones. Maybe not on there own -- the package needs to come together but for heaven's sake....
