Las Vegas -- Newt Gingrich delivered a fiery closing argument here on the eve of Nevada's Republican caucuses, predicting he would win the GOP nomination and taking several swings at Mitt Romney.

The former Georgia congressman vowed to fight for the nomination all the way to Tampa, called Romney "Obama-lite," and challenged him to another debate.

"It isn't good enough for the Republican Party to nominate Obama-lite," Gingrich told hundreds of cheering supporters at Stoney's Rockin' Country, a country music nightclub in Las Vegas.....

The lighter public schedule could reflect Gingrich’s efforts to raise more money behind the scenes to sustain his campaign through Super Tuesday, when Republicans in Georgia and many other states make their picks. Gingrich attended a private fundraiser at the Mundo Mexican church Thursday after speaking to Hispanic community and business leaders there. And he met Wednesday with billionaire casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, a Las Vegas businessman whose family has contributed $10 million to a pro-Gingrich Super PAC....

Sounds like you are paranoid of Santorum. If you think I support Santorum, you are mistaken. I don’t like him either.

In other words, “I went there to get a perk to add to my credentials for president.” The man has been running his entire adult life. Just like Obama.

It appears that if you add 'ten' to 'thirteen' you end up with '23' which
is your IQ. No matter, you will be riding the lightning soon.

Okay, so you definitely don’t like Newt. You just proclaimed you don’t like Santorum.

That leaves Willard or RuPaul. Which is it?

Allow me to explain. I, like a lot of voters perhaps, are not very happy with any of them. So, if you could co-mingle Romney’s ability to make money with Newt’s tenacity and broad knowledge of history and statesmanship, I could surely vote for that candidate. Except one cannot do that. So that leaves anyone who can win in November. I think Newt cannot, nor can Santorum or Ron Paul. I also think Romney just might be the only one at this time who can. This is somewhat like a team that wins the pennant by losing less games than their nearest rival. They simply backed into it. Gotta vote for somebody; slim pickins’ is all.

” Gotta vote for somebody;”

So your answer is to vote for the used car salesman Romney.
Romney who is Pro-homosexual marriage, pro-gun bans, pro-abortion, pro-higher taxes, pro-taxpayer funded goverment run healthcare.
