I know that fast and furious BS the RNC and VA officials tried to play by changing the rules last minute,all of a sudden votes never coutned now were counted etc etc. but truth is Newt is from VA! He should have had his 15,000 names already in the bag! Hard to make excuses for that one.
Bottom line though you are correct. Newt's genius shows through any time he is put up against anyone else.
HE is always the intellect in the room just as zero is always the weakest mind in any room.
An election between the two should be easily decided by anyone who can read and write and decipher brilliant from stupid.
By the looks of Iowa, can we already dismiss them as easily manipulated by negative ads? Should we wait for some real states to vote like SC and FL? Has anybody won the nomination who won this flaky state?
Happy New Year Sunday Freepers
I like Newt better than the rest of the field besides Perry.
Perry has better credentials and better ideas.
Newt has millions of ideas, thousands of them good, a few crazy but he expresses them very well. If we could just count on him to stay focused on the main issues that need to be handled, I would be happier.
I’m not too worried about the private life thing, but not sure I trust the current wife. Not just the expensive jewelry and getting him to take her on an ill-advised trip, but she does seem to have undue influence on him.
And she is one hard-looking babe.
However, he’s my second choice. Hang in there, Newt.
Here are recent quotes from Bachman’s former staff (Huckabee’s former staff) showing his hope that Romeny makes it and refers to Newt and Perry as dangerous.
1st Quote:
Few saw this bombshell coming, GOP strategist David Polyansky said. In an already unpredictable race this is another stunning turn of political fortune.
2nd Quote:
It is kind of interesting to see that, by pure luck and timing, in what many have dubbed the Fox Primary, that it might actually be CNN as the network that had the biggest impact and influence on the Iowa caucus, Polyansky said.
3rd Quote
Where Romney places in the caucuses may prove less important than where his rivals land, Polyansky said. Santorum and Paul would be much easier to dispose of in South Carolina and Florida than the more dangerous Perry and Gingrich, he said.
