“Anyone who runs in 2012 with an (R) after his name will be our next president.”

Not Romney. BO would win with a plurality.

We tried to elect a Newt like person in '08. It didn't work.

Hunter was my first choice too.

He clearly did not really want it. I cast a protest vote for Alan Keyes, then wasted several thousand dollars on McCain. Sure could use that money now.

Newt should stick to what he does best. Making global warming commercials with Pelosi and co-endorseing radical leftist candidates with ACORN.

His faults aside, he would be a far safer person in the WH that the commie that sits there now. How I wish there was a constitutional way to remove 0bama and all his ilk. How can evil,pure evil win out this way?

It depends on who runs, what their platform is, and how well they perform, doesn’t it?
I’m looking for someone who can beat 0bama with knowledge and the facts in a debate, which I think Newt would definitely meet, probably better than anyone. Some other “leaders” we hear about around here ad infinitum couldn’t hold thir own against 0bama in a debate, or even Joe Biden! So I certainly wouldn’t rule Newt out.

I want our next president to repair our tattered relationship with our traditional allies - the United Kingdom, Israel, and Canada, and repudiate our new “friends” Venezuela, Cuba, Syria, and Hezbollah.

And I also want to see a true Liberty Agenda. I am hoping that 2010 and 2012 will bring about a return of the Radical Republicans!

We already know DeMint has no interest in running for president, and I trust he is being honest when he says it (and he has, recently.)

Mike Pence is very promising, of course, but I would rather see him as Speaker of the House, with DeMint as NRSC chairman and Thune as Senate Majority Leader.

That is not to say I would endorse him..I think there are others who are far stronger conservative than he. I do appreciate his sense of history. He is interesting to listen to when he discusses history. Agree with him or not, he is not boring to listen to in terms of class settings.

When Newt cmae out in support of the Uber-RINO Scuzzi in NY 23, he was dead to me.

Dead, I say.

Newt's over there, sitting on a bench with the lovely Pelosi, saving us from global warming!

I'll take Mitch Daniels (captures OH, IN, and IA) along with Paul Ryan for VP (gets MN, WI). That's 58 electoral votes right there. VA, NH, and NC will flip next election cycle due to a low young vote turnout since they're blaming Obama for their unemployment (32 more votes). All that's left is to concentrate efforts in FL and now the electoral college has a 117 vote swing, causing Obama to lose 290-248.

Granted there will be some changes to the vote count due to the Census but that's the general idea.

Like Bill O’Rilley, another useful idiot for the global warming crowd. Pass.

As the article reminds us, Newt and Nazi Pelosi in an algore commercial. I'd also add, he is one of Sean Vannity's "good friends".

The case could be made, I think, that Churchill evolved in a lot of his political philosophy. We have the advantage of viewing him in hindsight. Our Hitler isn't across the North Sea, he is in our White House. This is not the time for evolution, this is the time for revolution.

I don’t think so. I strongly believed Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh or Michele Bachmann would be the best ideas.
