No mention of Hunter.
Time for Newt to get over himself. He is a man of quirky ideas, not great ideas. Big difference.
You can’t take Newt’s 20 - 80 stuff seriously. Its a bit self serving, to say the least.
Why? So you can agree with her? That little 'debate' that you had with John Kerry a while back was very disappointing & demoralizing for a Republican voter.
He's lost it.
80/20 unless something changes, then it could be 50/50 or even wind up with a Republican victory...
In other words... nothing.
I agree with Newt Gingrich that if everything stays the same, the Democrats will win in 2008. But nothing is going to stay the same.
The 80/20 stuff is nonsense. It’s like betting on the baseball world series winner at the beginning of the season. Not many would have called Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, Carter, or Reagan, or Bill Clinton 100 days before the first caucus.
Go away, Newt, and take Larry with you. Both of you are dragging our cause down. Why don’t you get that, you spoiled brat?
I’m tired of this cry baby. He so desparately wants to be drafted into the race like Fred was. Him and Novak drive me nuts, they do more harm then good.
I think that Gingrich is overly pessimistic about the Republicans’ chances in 2008. The election is more than a year away and a lot can happen in that time. Moreover, I think that Gingrich could end up demoralizing the Republican base with this kind of prediction and with his very tepid support of the Republican presidential candidates. The last thing we need is a big dose of defeatism.
It is beyond me what people see in this man or how anyone could want him to run for President.
His day came and went.
He is completely full of himself.
No sale, Newt. You have too many nice things to say about Hillary. That tells me you’ve been in politics too long and your principles have been sanded a little too smooth in the polisher.
However, Hillary does not have the ability to convincingly lie like her husband and will have to continue to pander to the left and anti-war forces in her party. That coupled with her often shrill and condescending comments about how "WE" know what's good for you may sour her with rank and file voters. I fear that the far too early start of the campaign will give voters campaign fatigue and result in one of the lowest turnouts in history for a presidential election. That could sway things in either direction.
Bill Bennett said something this morning that resonated with me.
Now remember this is the guy that told Papa Bush not to go along with Sen. Mitchell and the tax hike.
He said something to the effect that the Dem's have blown it with the Petraeus add, and in effect it will have legs.
It is something to think about, they may already lost, they have not and maybe will not throw MoveOn.org overboard.
Rudi is a moderate republican my ass. He is a flaming LIBERAL. Simple as that Newt boy.
80%, isn’t that Rush has been saying about the odds of getting us getting stuck with Missus Clinton, as of right now.
I don’t believe for one second there is an 80/20 chance the dems win in 2008
Big fan of Newt’s. He needs to realize he has zero chance of winning. He should just join another campaign as their strategic advisor.
if the # of people on this forum is any indication,
neut’s right.
some nights there are maybe 50 posters and 39 of them are mormons shilling for rombot in their ant piles.
Didn't I read that Newt is considering getting into the race...I guess he figures that he's the one who could "break out."
The man is a media whore...watching him is like watching Geraldo...IMHO.
