I’m with you. Not only is he on his third wife, she’s one of the two mistresses he has married. This guy has so much baggage, Obama’s people won’t have to lift a finger to find material to smear him. And that schtick about debating Obama a la Lincoln-Douglas? He’s proposed that before years ago with some other political figure he disagreed with. He must have Walter Mitty fantasies that he’s a reincarnation of Abraham Lincoln. He’s already compared himself to Churchill.
What if Obama would say no, that he’s too busy being president to debate Newt? Newt’s left high and dry. And I notice he doesn’t like being criticized. He’s looking more and more like a sourpuss old grump. Not the best thing to be when you’re going up against a charming con artist pretending to be president who has a toothy grin and the MSM in his corner.
I’m not electing Miss America or Mother Teresa. What we need now is a fighter who can win a war. If you were looking for the next General Patton would you worry about how the guy gets along with his wife or how white his teeth are? Politics isn’t tiddly winks.
Newt already said if Obama doesn’t agree to the debates, he will follow him around the country and give a speech 4 hours after every Obama speech. It would become a media sensation. The media loves to interview Newt and cover Newt, a big advantage in getting our message out. “Bomb-throwers” get ratings. They also draw blood, which is what we need in this election. Pretty boy Barack needs to get his smiling puss bloodied up real bad (in the rhetorical sense of course). Romney plays by the standard Massachusetts-style Marquess of Queensberry Rules. People will walk away liking Obama just as much as they did before, if not more when he’s done. He will be nice to Obama and reinforce that Obama is a nice guy. Newt will severely undermine Obama’s credibility and impugn his motives until people aren’t sure if they can trust that pretty face anymore.
If you let Obama get away with the sales pitch that he’s the “nice” guy trying to help Americans, you lose. He needs to be smeared and smeared bad by someone with the spirit and lack of scruples of a street fighter. Newt is a bastard, but he’s OUR bastard.
