Rush: Republicans Were 'Thirsting' For Newt's Message

Today, Rush Limbaugh said that Republican voters know now that Conservatism is “in Newt’s heart.”

“What we had last night in the Newt portion of the debate alone, was the pure and simple, forceful, passionate articulation of conservative principle and belief, that before last night was missing for whatever reason…we know now that it’s in Newt’s heart, it’s there.”

I don’t see Newt proposing anything that I’d call “gingrichcare.”

He did, at one time, as many conservatives, including Santorum, support a healthcare insurance mandate...but no longer does.

“I’ll never vote for a surrender monkey like Ron Paul. No matter if he’s an economic genius.”

What do you mean by ‘surrender monkey’? Surrendering our freedoms? Liberties? Our privacy? Our private property? Our borders? Surrendering the rules of engagement so as to put our sons and daughters at undue risk? Surrendering our status as the lone superpower with reserve currency status? Surrendering our jobs to foreign nations? Surrender of a government of and by the People? How about the surrender of energy independence?

If that’s Ron Paul, I certainly will never vote for him either!! What a surrender monkey!

Rush just took a Romney seminar caller. Rush is portraying the “attacks” as roughly equal, when in fact the media is spinning day and night in favour of Romney and against Newt. I don’t know what is going on with Rush, but he is going overboard in his defense of Romney. We can only speculate as to his motives: Clear Channel, etc., etc.

Could you imagine a Newt/Obama debate?

Obama would have to fake medical problems or just skip out to avoid him.

The very first Newt/Obama debate:

Obama: Republicans have cost our country blahblahblahblah.

Newt: You continue to lie while actively destroying this country Obama. Why?

Well, Newt it is for this South Carolinian!

I do what Sarah tells me. I'm a mind-numbed Sarahbot.

Marianne Gingrich has said she could end her ex-husband’s career with a single interview.
Earlier this week, she sat before ABCNEWS cameras, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned... MORE... Developing...

She spoke to ABCNEWS reporter Brian Ross for two hours. Her explosive revelations are set to rock the campaign. But now a “civil war” has erupted inside of the network, an insider claims, on exactly when the confession will air!

It seems that ABC and Newt’s Ex have conspired to take away any mo that Newt had. Tonight, the ex blasted him again. ABC seems hell bent on killing Newt but would not run the same story if Obama or Biden had strayed.

This is just ABC and Drudge’s attempt to bury the real story of the day. That Romney made money off the disposal of aborted baby bodies.

[Outside forces will impose that trillion dollar cut on Congress soon enough. It doesn’t matter what they want or propose. The total inability to sell US bonds in the global marketplace will bring an end to the welfare state, just as is now happening in Greece. Ron Paul is just saying we are better off doing it ourselves rather than letting the marketplace decide the timing. ]

Yup. The FedGov is spending 40% more than it takes in, about $1.3 trillion, now papered over by the Fed Reserve. Can’t do that forever.

So Ron Paul is more or less right on the financial side, he is just the wrong guy to bring the message. Sort of like waiting for a kernel of corn to pop, you know Paul would eventually go ballistic.
