One is just as bad as the other.
I have no problem with Newt not calling Mitt. What would he say? “Congratulations on destroying me personally in this primary?”
However, I think that Newt has to develop a thicker skin and appear more magnanimous.
There is no law in place says that he ( or the others) had to call Romney.
If he had caved in to call him, he would made his positions that Romney crucified in untruthful ads as irrelevant.
In before the Romnoids tell Newt to stick to the issues.
New tagline.
Romney complaining about not getting his congratulatory phone call while wearing an inappropriate smile looked pretty squirrely to me. He sounded like a jilted teenage girl.
Congratulate him for what—running dishonest lies night and day
I guess I didn’t realize candidates actually call each other after each Primary and congratulate the winner? seems stupid to me. Such congrats should be reserved for the end

IF he is the nominee, the GOP will lose both houses AND the Presidency.
And the GOP knows it.
"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"
"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"
"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"
"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"
"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"
Poor sport spoiler Romney doing what he does best:
Novak: "Fred Thompson drop-out rumors traced to Romney campaign"
Perhaps Newt just like many others and isn't a masochist and doesn't want to listen to the Romney plastic, suitable for all occasions, phony baloney smiley faced cartridged retort.
“romey... this is newt. About today... FU you rat bastid! I challenge you to a two hour debate... to be moderated by Mark Levin. Why if you were here now... I would give you a magic wedgie”

Didn’t Gingrich know that Romney had more money from the start? What did he think was going to be done with it, just print signs and banners? I don’t hear any of the other candidates bringing up Romney’s coffers as an excuse for losing a primary. Focus on the substance of the ads, not the money used to buy them.
I would like to see Newt start IGNORING Romney,,ie, when asked why he didn’t call him..to just say NOTHING in response to the question! It would drive the Mittens camp crazy.
The opposite of love is not hate. It’s indifference.
Newt needs to keep his head up and not play in to the Mittens traps.
When I saw Romnuts on FNC, saying that Newt’s attacks on HIM were “sad and pathetic”...I wanted to throw my shoe through the TV. Who is desperate? Who is pathetic?
If I break all my TVs, least then I won’t have to look at Mr. Bushy Brows anymore.
And best of all, I won’t have to watch the Super Bowl, which is supposed to have my Packers playing in it. :-)
He’s right but this isn’t helpful, especially since Newt is already being called a sore loser for whining about the winner-take-all in FL since he’d never question it had he won.
I just don’t think this serves any purpose.
Reminds me of the little tantrum the Salamander had after Slick Willy put him in the back of Air Force 1. “Thin skinned” is something I don’t want in a President, and I don’t expect from a life long politico.
