I think Newt and Santorum are both good men, but if South Carolina goes as expected tonight, then it will be crystal clear that the only way to stop Romney is Gingrich. That suits me fine.

..I couldn't have said it better

Newt is not a threat to the Republic--Romney is--Obama wants to destroy it...

The only knock on Newt is that he sometimes TOOK positions that varied from conservative orthodoxy (Individual mandate; Scozzafava; global warming, etc). Part of the reason for this is that he is a professor. Professors come out of the academy where ideas are freely floated. Sometimes a bad one is expressed.

The point is this: When Gingrich was in power, he overthrew the Establishment and GOVERNED as a conservative across the board. As the saying goes, watch what he did, not (so much) what he said.

Romney is Establishment to the core and he governed as a doctrinaire leftist. In the unlikely event he won in November, he wouldn’t be two millimeters better than Obama and his tenure would give way to a Dem congress and a Dem President that would finish the job Obama started.

I hope Newt pulverizes the greasy flipflopper tonight.
