I have to disagree with your statement about Newt. He simply wants to open serious discussion about illegals. Putting it off will only increase the problem.
I posted the Paul stuff not because I think it is true.
I posted it to show how stupid the anti-Newt feeding frenzy is.
I don’t think Paul supports amnesty.
I don’t think Newt supports amnesty.
At present I favor Newt as being a proven conservative fighter, well-vetted, a leader, competent, and electable.
I no longer think that is true of:
Cain due to his melting under the spotlight, of
Bachmann as she doesn’t possess the necessary aura of leadership, and
Santorum because he consistently has trouble attracting support from voters.
Mittens can’t be trusted.
Mittens junior (is it Huntsman?) strikes everyone as a rich kid with nothing better to do than run for governor and president.
Paul is too odd to lead the nation and most of his sound bite solutions are not plausible.
And Johnson makes penis jokes on television (”Do I have a grip on this DICK?”) while running for president (he repeated the joke several times while on Red Eye on Nov. 17, 2011). What do you expect from a Johnson?
