Newt wins

That did not take long. Newt Gingrich bounced from fourth in Iowa and fourth in New Hampshire to win the South Carolina Primary, which has been won by all the previous 8 Republican nominees, dating back to Ronald Reagan in 1980.

The appeal is Newt fights. He showed that twice in this week’s debates. I have been saying that the debates have been the great equalizer, as Newt and others have used it to offset Mitt Romney’s huge warchest.

What a week for Newt. Coming off the New Hampshire primary, Mitt led in South Carolina by 10 points or more in the 5 polls. Then Newt beat up Mitt in Monday’s debate and beat up the media in Thursday’s debate and won big today, according to exit polls. There have been 17 televised primaries already on commercial television networks. Capitalism — not congressional action — has taken money out of politics, or at least mitigated, its power.

Well it looks like we will have a real campaign this year! Usually by South Carolina, we already know who our nominee will be and ever since Reagan, it's always been the "chosen" one by the GOP elites.

Well Newt really upset the apple cart tonight. I wish Newt well in Florida and if he does well there, we might have our first GOP upset since 1980!

AND A GIANT THANK YOU TO JIMROB AND THE FREE REPUBLIC!

Look at their accomplishments. Newt allied himself with Ronald Reagan to build the Reagan Coalition, the Religious Right, and the Republican majority (together the Reagan Revolution) which directly led the downfall of the Soviet Union, the Contract with America, government reforms, less government, tax cuts, a balanced budget, and the great, long-standing Reagan economy.

Romney, on the other hand, vehemently denied Ronald Reagan and aligned himself with Ted Kennedy and the left. Romney accomplished installing liberal big government programs, defended and promoted Roe v Wade and legalized abortion as “settled law,” advocated and implemented RomneyCare with its liberty killing government mandates against formerly free citizens and its taxpayer funded or subsidized and mandated abortion procedures. He ran and governed to the left of Ted Kennedy on the “gay agenda” resulting in gay marriage in Massachusetts. He appointed liberal judges and liberal appointees throughout his government. Under his “leadership” conservatism and the Republican party was all but destroyed in Massachusetts.

Romney is one evil liberal progressive. No way in hell will MittBots be allowed to support this abortionist, big government, socialist scumbag on FR!

Guess my message isn’t clear enough. I have to keep repeating it and zotting would be MittBots.

I probably shouldn’t have done it . . . but I sent John King a thank you note via contact us @ CNN . . .

something like this . . .

Thank you for helping push Newt over the top! We’re looking for a LEADER . . . not a husband, or a Pope and Jesus isn’t on the ballot.

I’m glad for you. Isn’t your tag line a quote from John Wayne?

Good for you.

I like W. and used to like Barbara Bush; but I haven't had a good word for her since she dissed Palin in a condescending way. Ms Barbra didn't even finish her degree, but she and the rest of the establishment types think the Pres has to be from Hahvard or Yale. They can just keep their little Jeb home. Not buying any more Bushes 'cause they just don't get that the country has been hijacked. To them, it is just another election.

I agree. I still will show her respect as an elder and former first lady . . . but she is forever tainted as far as her snide comments concerning Sarah are concerned. Sarah & Todd have both worked very hard, raised a very nice family and not everyone is born with a silver spoon yet they still soar above many that are.

Very nice pic of Newt. I swear becoming a grandfather changes men. I’ve seen it several times in my life already with my grandfathers, my father & FIL.

Go Newt!!!!!

41% to 27% right now on Fox. WOW I was praying for 40% for Newt and double digits over Romney . . . Woo Hoo!!!!

[Lib-Lickers 2]

I told everyone for weeks I am A Newt Gingrich backer but would without a doubt back the non Romney winner in SC to go all the way..I meant it.. if Rick Santorum would have won I would have switched to him I promise I would have

may God bless the Perry and Santorum backers because you people are the salt of the earth.. can we please now get behind Newt Gingrich to defeat Romney and kick Obama’s ass?

Well said.

George W Bush could/should have exposed 0bama. In my mind, he broke his oath.
