Look. While I may cut and paste some sludge about Newt, I will admit this:

IF he is the GOP candidate - I will vote for him. Just as I did for McCain. I won’t like it, but I’ll do it.

I also will expect the same results - 4 more years of One Big Ass Mistake America..

FReepers - NOW is the time to demand better. If Newt or Romney (or - puke - even Paul) is the best we can do (and current polls show they are the front runners) then we are screwed.

Something for you to consider ... We are stuck with the candidates that we have. If there was someone else serious about running, they would be now. It is not possible to build an on-the-ground organization to win enough primaries for the nomination if starting today. Even the current candidates have their own difficulties setting up their organizations this late in the game.

Personally, I want to focus on what candidates have done while in office. That's the first cut. Second, I want to focus on what they say they will do. Then I will ask the question is the candidate consistent going forward with his past. After that, I look at what I agree and not agree with each candidate.

The tough part is deciding between candidates that are close. That's when I look at personality, baggage, ability to articulate, and general electability.

My system works based on actions and truth (although, future promises do not equate to truth.) What doesn't help are statements taken out of context, videos cut in mid-sentence, or opinions that that come from people with personal beefs.

When Newt was speaker, his pissed off a lot of people. That needs to be tempered by knowing that he was leading a Republican congress that had zero experience being the majority. Maybe, just maybe, that pissed off some people, especially thoses that were proven wrong in their approach. They failed in the past, Newt succeeded. I'm not going to listen to losers whine.

You need to recall that Newt was chased from congress by Republicans. The ethics charges well all dismissed, minus one, which was later dismissed by the IRS. Where was the rest of the republican revolution? They acted as if they were still in the minority.

Politics is a tough business. We're not playing for trophies. We're up against a bunch of thug socialists from Chicago. Being negative against our own is not helpful.

If you want to advocate for one candidate, then more power to you. We have a lack of positive truthful information on all the candidates. We are stuck with the candidates that we have. Let's be realistic and make the best decisions possible while not wishing for the impossible ... the perfect candidate.
