Hrm. Drudge is going off on Newt, too.

First Coulter, then Drudge, then Abrahams, then.... All Rinos now. Has it occurred to anyone on this site that maybe they should take a closer look at Newt. How many Republican house reps when Newt was speaker have come forward to endorse him? All Rinos now I guess.

I don't think you'll find a single Newt supporter out there who doesn't know that Newt has a lot of warts. But you know what? They're tolerable in the context of what Mitt Romney brings to the table.

He's flip-flopped on every issue imaginable. He ran to the left of Ted Kennedy in 1994. HE ADMITTED THAT HIS VIEWS ARE PROGRESSIVE in 2002. He signed socialized medicine into law as governor, then used public funds to buy the hard drives of the computers used in drawing up Romneycare. He's on video saying it was "good" that Obama borrwed Romneycare's health exchanges, even though he claims to be against it now. He refused to call Barack Obama a socialist. He's equated Bain Capital with TARP, thus taking it off the table. He's defended the MSM after Gingrich nailed them for being biased scumbags, taking that off the table. Romney recently said that the economy IS GETTING BETTER under Obama, thus taking that off the table.

And that's just a choice sampling. Need I go on?

As I posted earlier, I pulled the lever for Newt in SC, but it wasn’t done enthusiastically.

I am worried that our side is imploding. We aren’t getting behind any one candidate. Most of us true conservatives have no interest in backing Romney. The establishment - many people who I respect - have no interest in backing Newt.

This is a bad news/bad news situation. We’re in deep trouble because there is no one left to rally around.
