Why do you say that?

Newt has changed dramatically. Here are some FR links about his conversion.

It’s been eons since I’ve watched her, but is there something wrong with the woman? She just seems goofy somehow...medicated?

Dopey leftist female talking head complaining that Newt is in “defensive” mode.

What? You're supposed to be listening to a former FR fave for President, and sign up for a Reverse Mortgage.

(I'm assuming everyone got to see the Fred Thompson commercial).

“It’s a full-on hit job on Newt.”

Exactly.... that seems to be the only intent of this entire pile of garbage.

Santorum was supporting the party in his endorsement of Specter. Kind of tough to run against the senior Senator from your own party in your own state.

Much like Palin supported McCain, I don't really think that's a credible criticism, and I'm certain given the dynamics of the 2006 elections and the son of a king (in Pa.) being his opponent were the reasons for Santorum’s defeat.

Is this question a setup for Newt or what?

Obama does NOT want Newt.

A Vow to God is stringer than a handshake in Texas!

A vow to God is even more important than a handshake in Texas.

Good response from Perry.

Stephy attacking INFIDELITY now, in a DIRECT attack on Gingrich.

No mention of Michelle Obama banging the Secret Service dude.
Imagine that.

Bachmann seems to be unable to control her mouth. She is so often wrong that I can’t even call them lies as she really believes what she says. But...she is a shrieking, nut who makes me grind my teeth every time I hear her speak.

Stephanopoulos has the nerve to ask about a candidate’s marital fidelity. Perry doesn’t have the nerve to throw it back on him about Clinton. Perry does give a good answer about trust and keeping vows.

“should voters consider marital fidelity when making their presidential choices?”

Oh heck yes.

Perry gives funny answer. (a marriage vow is “better than a handshake in Texas”) You’d cheat on your wife, you’d cheat your business partner...

Newt looks mighty grim.

Well lets see how Newt handles this line of attack?
