I support and defend Newt, Santorum, Romney. I do not like the negative crap and IMHO Newt’s appearance tonight was petty. Even the fact he gave a news conference instead of a positive speech to supporters, was a mistake.
Best example: Romney underperformed tonight and Newt took a district Romney won last time. Instead of pointing that out, Newt says he knew he’d lose because “There are a lot of Mormons here”. That was just dumb.
OMG, everything I have read from you is an attack on Newt. Show me where you have defended Newt. Show me where you leveled the same attacks on Mitt for his "scorched" Earth absolute negative ads (99%) against Newt.
Mitt with his "whiny" ads (13000+ to Newt's few hundred).
Mitt is a loathsome liar and an evil power-lusting leftist who lies about being a Conservative.

It’s true. It is also exactly what FNC said in 2008 in dismissing Romney’s win over McCain too.
I too though wish Newt would have given a speech, but I think he was afraid FNC wouldn’t show it. He also doesn’t have the money Mittwitt has so a press conference is an effective way to get his message out.
FNC is so in the tank for Romney it is sickening.
Romney and Santorum have been more nasty in the campaign than Newt.
Yet Newt gets called on it.
