Somehow, that makes me chuckle.
Yup.
Newt’s rise will continue because every time he speaks he takes on the media and Obama in the same sound bite. Of course he is the smartest Republican candidate with loads of ideas. If he stays disciplined we could see Obama and Gingrich debating next fall.
our craving for someone who has this ability in light of the inarticulate Bush-McCain yearsYes!
That's what the Newt-bashers here in FR don't get when they cut'n'paste all kinds of internet sh*t about his past.
I DON'T CARE.
I want to see Newt shred Obama, and then go on to shred the media.
I want to see it.
I'll pay to see it.
I will pay a LOT to see it.
Perry can't do it.
Cain can't do it.
Bachmann can't do it.
Romney can't do it.
Paul can't do it.
Huntsman can't do it.
Santorum can't do it.
Only Newt can do it.
It needs to be done. We NEED it to be done.
Looks like Romney isn’t the only gop candidate attempting to hoodwink conservatives into supporting him.
Just say no to Newt... you fickle Republicans.
Is Newt pushing for a tax cut on top income earners?
The debate stage matters more than ever before -- and on that stage, Newt is the best. The future of the Republic is at stake. And that is why Gingrich is in the top tier to stay.This election is a full half century after the Kennedy/Nixon debates. In all that time, the importance of debates has grown election by election until now it is key.
Newt will shred Obama in the debates.
No one else will come close.
End. Of. Story.
Newt strikes me as a sort of Benjamin Franklin type.
Very smart, speaks well, loves the ladies, portly, plays with ideas on both sides of the political spectrum, makes money from affiliations with the government (post office in Franklin’s case).
When the chips were down and it was time to choose Franklin sided against the crown and was a patriot.
Although far from perfect I think Newt would do whatever was needed to help us prosper. I don’t think he would ever fail to come to the aid of Israel either.
We could do worse...much worse :-(
like Mitt...just ewww
Thanks for posting, I just saw it was up. Newt is one of three candidates I like to a a degree - and this article was designed to explain why his support has quadrupled in the past six weeks or so.
I know a lot of people will flame away why they don’t like Newt, and that’s fine. Still, his support has grown for some reason and I think this piece is accurate as to why.
If Cain can't win the nomination, we had better all sober up and get behind Newt. For all his faults, he's got a big enough ego to want to be the guy who turns things around once and for all, and he's smart enough to know he can only do that by tearing down the fascist machinery embedded in government, academia, and big business, after nearly a hundred years of democrat majorities. He's also the only one in the race with a deep desire to take revenge on the national democrat machine and it's always good to have a President who enjoys his work.
JMHO
Because polls are manufactured marketing tools?
Newt won’t surge. He’ll become the anti Romney, anti Obama candidate. People will vote for him because he’s not those two and the country will continue it’s slide into the abyss. Newt is the poster boy for what is wrong with the federal government and the GOP.
It seems to me that is what his company was hired to do. He was quite willing to work against conservative principles as long as the price was right. I guess thats what ‘Intellectual’ conservatives do.
I posted this earlier, I’m gonna post it again.
The Newt we know. EXACTLY.
Ya know what? I am supporting Newt 100% until he wins or drops out. I don’t care if he is accused of fondling boys 20-30 years ago. I don’t care if Newt put his hand up some woman’s skirt. I don’t care that he sat on a couch with Pelosi. I don’t care about whatever scandal comes along, legit or phony.
I have had it with the news media, through their scandal mongering, choosing our candidate. WHY ARE WE LISTENING TO THEM? Why are we listening to the country club Republicans?
Almost all accusations can be explained or forgiven. Many are just plain lies! We have to STOP playing along with the media and trashing our own candidates.
Newt’s company made millions from consulting. WHO CARES? If he hadn’t, how much more money would you have in your pocket? NOT A CENT.
THE PAST is just that, PASSED. I only care what Newt says from now on. I want to hire him to do a JOB. That is it! For this “time” he is the best man for the job. Baggage, Smaggage, I DON’T CARE! WHAT IS HE SAYING NOW? WHAT IS HE DOING NOW? That is what matters. What are his ideas for fixing our country. What executive orders will he sign within the hour of being sworn in? (Newt.org).
It is time to quit SCREWING AROUND and get behind Newt.
Face it, Romney & Newt are the choices. Cain is DONE. Perry is DONE. The rest are nowhere. Many here say they don’t like Newt, but would not hesitate to vote for him if he were the nominee. Instead of beating him up ( the left, media, and RINOs will keep doing that), let’s rally around Newt. Let’s get this party started. All attacks from now on to be against OBAMA.
Newt isn’t the lesser of two evils, he’s just the best man for the job, from the field we have to choose from.
Newt can WIN. Obama’s worst nightmare.....debating Newt. Newt will show moderates, independents, and democrats just how STUPID Obama really is. (Conservatives already know this)
I don’t think there are many who could disagree with this:
When Newt walks into a room, the collective IQ goes up.
Great article & dead on indeed! Here’s a couple of things in the article that really made a lot of sense:
“By contrast, we are also reminded why we have dreaded every presidential debate since Reagan-Mondale. We haven’t had a yes! moment in these things since Reagan, and we desperately need one.”
Aint that the freaking truth!
“But it goes deeper than just those moments. The campaign debates of 2012 will be definitive moments in our national conversation. I think many instinctively know this. We will have on display some spokesperson for conservatism debating Obama and the Occupy America vision. It will impact perhaps every race in 2012. And many are now saying out loud what they’ve been whispering for months.”
This is the thing I’ve been wondering a lot about lately. Who will have the best chance of coat tails? This may be as important as the presidential election itself. It’s imperative we retake the senate & add to the house.
Regardless of his “baggage”, Newt will be on conservative point for the entire cycle & will not waiver or lose focus. His message will be the conservative message & one that the entire party can rally around, including those running for congress. Newt will set the standard for the rest of the party to follow.
Cain is the only other candidate who could accomplish this, however, only on domestic issues. Cain will also have a hard time navigating the landmines set forth by the MSM. Newt knows the landmines & thus I feel will have longer coat tails.
Gingrich/Cain? Wow!
