Last time I checked i wasn’t on the ballot. Newt needs to put his big boy pants on. They’re not running for student council.

It’s a measure of ‘maturity’, not politics. The losing team’s coach, even in Little League, congratulates the winning team on their victory. Most children learn this princple - it appears that this childhood lesson was missed by Newt.

Whether you like Mitt or not; it’s a measure of the kind of man Newt is.

He appears to be a shallow person, who cannot handle defeat well. Is that the type of president you want? Someone who storms off the field, throws a temper tantrum, and cries; or a Man who says “Well done; we’ll see what happens next time”.

Even Algore managed to be gracious when he lost, and that’s not setting the bar very high at all.

Cry Baby Alert?

ARe you for real? We need someone on our side who has some guts and not afraid to show it.

I think Romney has shown his true colors, and very few people in the media or on the campaign trail have gone after him. I think Michelle Bachman’s demise was largely due to her pettiness and dishonesty in attacking Perry and Gingrich.

I think it’s clear to me and to many here on FR. There are two camps, just two. YOu’re either for Romney or you’re not. If Romney gets the nomination, I for one will vote for him as I did for McCain, but make no mistake about it. The man is a snake. He will do anything he can to try and win this nomination, then sell us all out in the end.

I’m sick and tired of the weak sisters who represent us. It’s not a question of cry babying....I’m sure Newt will be asked about again, and he’ll eventually congratulate the guy.

That might be a bit premature.

It is interesting how huge the symbolic win by 8 votes is. Imagine the headlines if Santorum had won by 8 votes. And what if he did?

Interesting.
