First Time in 16 Years: A Standing "O" given at a Debate. (Vanity)
January 17, 2011 | no dems

Posted on 01/17/2012 4:12:55 AM PST by no dems

Frank Lunz was on the FOX Post Debate Analysis last night after South Carolina Debate. He made the statement that in 16 years of following Debates, that was the first time he'd ever seen a candidate get a Standing Ovation. Newt did not just get a Standing "O" from his supporters but, by-and-large from the entire crowd when he defended his comment about Barack Obama being the "Food Stamp President" and his stance on young Blacks needing a work ethic rather than government assistance.

Newt didn't just "knock it out of the park" once last night. He "knocked it out of the park" several times. I'm telling you; when the dust settles, if the two major Party nominees are Newt and Obama, Newt will mop the floor with the Marxist in Chief. And, refute this if you want, but most Americans, especially those who are not political junkies and are not tremendously informed, make up their mind as to whom they will vote for by watching the Debates. I've observed this since 1960. The Debates are the tipping points in the elections. Therefore, I submit that Mitt Romney is NOT the most electable Pubbie running. Newt Gingrich is the one who can defeat Barack Obama.

Have you called them and suggested this?


I am absolutely certain that they have already received thousands of calls, email, and tweets since last night.

The question is how do we save America from the Socialist Marxist Democrats?

The answer to this question is NOT to end the debate.

>I think that we saw the next president in that moment last night.<

Compare and contrast McCain who in ‘08 said something to the effect of “We needn’t fear an Obama Presidency”.

Probably a lot of us knew at that precise moment that it was all over.
