That guy Newt has built up nothing. He has defecated on conservatism repeatedly over the years.
He is for sale to the highest bidder. His wife is one of them. He took a cruise and paid her off at Tiffany’s. What a loser. The woman will be no asset either, she looks as cold as ice.
Get your head straight.
I wasn’t even all in for Cain, but I WILL DEFEND him over a unprincipaled smartass RINO.
Comical... absolutely comical.
The guy who engineered the Republican take over of the house for the first time in 40+ years, and the Contract with America classified as a RINO.. that’s comical.
You need to open your eyes, Do I like every decision Newt has made in his political life? Of course not, I didn’t agree with every decision Reagan made either, or that Toomey has made, or Bush, or any politician for that matter.
You try to claim your objections are based on political astuteness, but all you offer is personal attacks... His wife? You are now attacking his wife as though she has anything to do with anything? Be serious man.
I’d love to see someone to the right of Newt and Romney, and if there was someone who was COMPETENT, CAPABLE and VIABLE I’d be supporting them, but there isn’t, not anyone close. Why not? Who knows.. Maybe those that were that might have run were scared off by Romney’s war chest and decided against running.. maybe they were scared off by the small very loud part of the Tea Party Bloc (and those here) demanding absolute Conservative “PURITY”, a test which NO ONE WILL EVER PASS. (Well at least no one in politics who’s had an ounce of success beyond the local level).
Anyone who is politically successful at all, with the exception of totalitarian states, is successful through negotiation and compromise, that’s how the system works. You think MY WAY OR THE HIGHWAY, and you are GONE. Which is why, unless zealots put up a joke of a candidate, Obama will be gone.
You need to stop the hyperbole and demagoggery. Here’s the choice, like it or not, you are faced with this election. Obama, Romney or Newt. That’s it.. its not rocket science, its not the world out to get you, its the reality of the 2012 political cycle. You can scream and holler that the world sucks and isn’t fair, and it should all bend to your way of thinking and lash out at anyone who doesn’t march lock step with you, or you can stop the nonsense, and realize who your friends are and who your enemies are. Zealots never know who their friends are, and as such are almost always left out in the cold at the end of the day.
So, that’s the pragmatic reality, Newt, Romney or Obama, and if you say screw it I’m staying home with your misguided notions and passions of political purity, you help Obama. Folks did that in 08, and that’s work out oh so well for you since then hasn’t it?
