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.

Check out this one from his alter ego ....

Yeah, I’m getting sick of all the Romney bashing. The guy is a faithful family man and he gets constantly attacked on Free Republic. And FR wonders why less people vist the web site.

Is that a ship I see on the horizon?

It was the funeral flight for Yitzhak Rabin. Newt did complain about exiting the plane from the back and not down the main staircase with the President. He also complained that President Clinton ignored him and Bob Dole during the flight. It didn't take too long for the White House to release a photo of Clinton chit-chatting with the both of them.

Yeah, sorry. You were the conduit. It was intended for the weak sister who posted the article. I’m sure Harry Truman kissed his enemies on the @ss every chance he got.

It’s time for someone on our side to step up and speak up. I guess the guy who posted this thinks Newt should have apologized to all the media too.

Someone posted that it proves why he should n’t be president. Jeeez...

Santorum is a nice guy. Gave a good speech I hear, but Folks, I’m sorry, he’s not my idea of what this country needs.

I think Newt wants to make it clear that it’s him and Romney...It was smart and actually polite the way he did it by not saying anything he’d regret.

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

Opinions / anal orifices. Everyone has one.

I'm expecting Newt to go nuclear on MR and expose him for the sniveling shapeshifter he is.

For you, I fear your time here will be nasty, brutish and short.

I wouldn’t congratulate Willard either. First its not necessary since Newt didn’t come in 2nd and after getting slimed by Romney for weeks on end I wouldn’t congratulate him for it. I think Newt will have plenty to say to Mitt on Sat night. Can’t wait.

he’s not fit to be President.”

And Obama is? How about Carter, Clinton, and the worhtless Bushes? What made them fitter to be President than Newt (whom I don’t particularly support)?

The mindless - often vicious - criticism of less than perfect candidates, which is all of them, on FR is astonishing.

And for the record, Newt not calling Romney doesn’t bother me. I suspect things are about to get nasty between those two.

Name calling, how very...liberal.

So did you find out who added the 'name-calling' to the end of the title of this thread?

This is why Newt would be a terrible President. Too thinned skinned.

Willard is a damned Democrat pretending to be a Republican. No Conservative should be congratulating him on tying Santorum with six delegates.

I’m with you.

I don’t congratulate my competitors.

The race is still on. So, nothing to be gracious about...if you don’t feel like it.

Sorta like Dick Cheney telling —I forget who it was-to “ Go Bleep Himself” when he wanted to pose in a picture with him after lying about him
