I think the tea party is beginning to warm up to him. Newt is a pro-life, Reagan Coalition Christian conservative and he’s knowledgeable, experienced, fully vetted (sought redemption and is largely forgiven), is battle tested and rip-roaring ready to hit the ground running. No on the job training necessary. He’s a deficit cutting, tax cutting, budget balancing, welfare reforming, socialist healthcare program (HillaryCare) blocking, small government, big defense dynamo. He’s already taking the battle to the enemy. In short, we’re desperate and he’s exactly what we’re looking for.
Forgot to mention, that as a Reagan protege and with his successful years in the congress and as Speaker he knows how to maneuver the DC and congressional minefields a lot better than someone like Romney who allied himself with Ted Kennedy to get his moderate (socialist) agenda through.
“In short, were desperate and hes exactly what were looking for.”
Your opinion holds a lot of weight with me, Jim. Unless Palin gets back in (too late I’m told) - Newt will get my vote.

I dunno about “exactly”. I’d replace that adjective with “as close as we’re gonna get to”.
Newt will wipe the floor with Obama in a debate and I bet Obama will be shaking in his boots. Should Newt win I look for the Obama team to make zero seem like the victim of mean ole Newt a la Hillary and Rick Lazio in their debate (which was laughable knowing what an aggressive witch Hillary really is). I think Obama will have to go for sympathy rather than competence - since he’s incompetent anyway.
One thing I know - he’s the smartest guy on our side - wish I were sure that he could beat zero in the election.
Gingrich is not "cool" but he's substantive. Hopefully enough people will have changed their minds about how "cool" it is to vote for "The One."
Megadittos.
1980 Reagan revolution = tea party beta 1
1994 Newt’s GOP takeover of the House = tea party beta 2
2010 Booting Pelosi from speakership = tea party 1.0
Newt’s current run is a natural progression of the same grass roots conservatism.
Amen. Newt is the Rotweiller on Steroids against the Marxist Monster.
Sorry Jim, I’m not that desperate. I keep thinking of that NY 23 race, the climate change advocate and the sky high ego “I am the nominee”. I will vote for him if he is the one but not too excited about it.
Bttt

Ill tell you this. Whoever in this field takes it to Obama the straightest and the hardest and the most direct, is whos gonna win. Theyre gonna have to take it to Obama. This isnt a pussy-foot around type of election. This is not, Oh, weve got to worry about what theyre gonna say about us, weve got to worry about PR, about charges of racism. Somebodys got to be willing to take it to Obama. Its going to be about him and four more years of this stuff and well see if theres anybody in this field willing to do that. ~ Rush Limbaugh - March 25th, 2011

I have a feeling that pretty soon, Newt will say what the establishment will think is ANOTHER "stupid" thing, saying something like this:

True.. I was waiting for Captain Obvious in Silk costume BUT NooT showed up instead..
So be it........
MEGA Newt dittoes, Jim. Thanks for nailing it so perfectly. GAME!
2. Support Dede Seozzafava the RINO in New York's republican primary a short time ago.
3. Call Paul Ryan's medicare reform package something the right wing extremists would support.
And this has been within that last few years. If I have to, I will hold my nose and vote for Gingrich over Obama, but it won't be with much enthusiasm.
In addition to his intellect and experience, Newt`s fearlessness is refreshing and inspiring. For the first time since Reagan, the Repubs will have a standardbearer who`s not only ready and able, but demonstrably quite willing to tear the flesh off these detestable, lying libs.
He`ll have my vote.
AT `EM, NEWT!!!
