Newt won't congratulate Mitt on win (MittBot Alert)
Politico ^ | 12/4/12 | Ginger Gibson

Posted on 01/04/2012 12:59:12 PM PST by teddyballgame1

POLITICO's Ginger Gibson reports:

Newt Gingrich still won't congratulate Mitt Romney for winning the Iowa caucuses.

At a news conference in Concord, N.H., Gingrich was asked by CBS correspondent Dean Reynolds why he congratulated Rick Santorum but not Romney.

Gingrich stared at the reporter and raised his eyebrows in silence, eventually drawing laughter from some of the reporters. "Because I know you would be a man of great professionalism, I know that's a rhetorical question. And a good one," Gingrich said.

During his speech in Des Moines last night, Gingrich visibly seethed at mention of Romney, who along with his supporters ran a barrage of attack ads against the former speaker. Romney said he'd spoken with every GOP rival last night except Gingrich.

I don't see a “congrats” from you to mittens. Go ahead, “congratulate” mittens on his BIG “win”.

"I'd vote for Santorum over Newt in a minute."

What does this have to do with mittens? Newt was praising Santorum, with his stealth pointing towards mittens.

I think this stand makes Newt the perfect President!

PS: Signing up here and posting Politico crap favoring the enemy of conservatives will not get you far.

I’ve listened and read Newt’s position on immigration. YOu can go to his website and read it. Anyone who interprets this as amnesty is not being honest.

Bingo. I always knew Newt’s ego would be his downfall. First he announces he’s going to be the nominee (”look at the polls - I’m clearly going to get the nomination”)and then gets his clock cleaned in Iowa. He needs to man-up and stop complaining. I don’t see any of the other candidates whining.

He’s a sore loser and doesn’t have the temperament to be President.

What a silly article. Mitt spent 4 mil & barely squeeked out a victory in a caucus. He didn't win the nomination.

Mittbots are really scraping bottom of the barrel now.

I’m guessing you meant to address that at someone else?

Smells like a RomneyBot, In Before The Zot!

Why should Newt congratulate that scum sucking RINO Romney and his shadowy PAC-assassination teams?

Take that crap someone else, nobody's buying here.

No wonder Newt has been going down as of late.

Screw Mitt. I wouldn’t congratulate him either. His public persona is squeaky clean but he uses the dirtiest campaign staff ever.

And Newt IS a natural born citizen...questions linger on Mitt and unfortunately, some question about Santorum, too, whom I really like.

It's time for a Romneybot Zot.

Roger that. This thread implies that Mitty deserves congratulations? And a post yesterday attacks Newt for calling the Liar a liar?

I for one am not looking forward to forcing myself to vote for Romnie like I and millions of others had to with McCain. There would be no real course change under Romnie...and the argument he can manage things better is suppose to satisfy.

I guess I should have expected cheap shots from a Saints fan.

Agreed. Why would Newt congratulate Mitt when he ran a dirty campaign?

You are correct, sir!

It ain’t beanbag, Pal. Newt is coming back and he’s bringing the pain with him. You here to tout for Mitt? Do tell.

No, the thread implies Gingrich is a cry baby.
