Here is complete video of a combative Newt Gingrich holding a Press Conference tonight after finishing a distant second or third (still unclear) in the Nevada GOP Caucuses. Gingrich said he is going to stay in the GOP Presidential Race until the end – all the way to the Convention in August. He predicted he will be back as the frontrunner by the time of the Texas Primary (April 3), and plans to focus on March 6 Super Tuesday states in the weeks ahead.
Gingrich slammed Mitt Romney over and over again, calling him “fundamentally dishonest,” and saying he has been “shocked” at how negative and dishonest Romney’s Campaign against him has been....
Video at link.
Some elements of the British Press are unforgiving
The video.
Thank you. I am about to tear my hair out trying to figure out what the heck is going on. Has romney claimed a great victory? Did they show him? I missed everything!
Yes, and he was just the same old arrogant, fraudulent Romney. Faux is replaying Newt’s presser now.
Newt Gingrich took on the job-killing minimum wage. There’s no doubt this is a man of authentic principle and unyielding courage.
...a combative Newt Gingrich
The point being
FORTUNE FAVORS THE BOLD!
Where is Newt being combative in this video? I keep hearing the MSM say “Newts combative, Newts angry, Etc etc” But for the life of me i do not see it... Good speech by the way.. :)
Fox bashes Newt every 2 minutes. They are shameless.
bump
Now you know how I felt when Cain was on top. A shame Cain didn’t have the endurance of Newt Gingrich.
It was necessary for Newt to get some shots in at the liar obamney, the heck with political correctness crap from the media. Newt said obamney was a liar, same as huckabee has said. Newt said obamney fired his debate coach, that needed to be said. The minimum wage index from obamney and the poor people safety net also. I dont understand people wanting Newt to stand up on a podium after being negatively attacked with $18M ads and be mr. nice guy.
IMO, that presser was a disaster. He gave fodder to the press and meat for Romney. If he is not careful he runs the risk of appearing to be the guy that is in it, not to right the course of America, but the guy that has a personal vendetta against Romney and is hanging around to damage him.
He is allowing Romney to live in his head rent free. Newt, STOP IT!!!!!
Hopefully, the average voter wasn't tuned in and it won't matter much.
Aside from the fact that the media is pimping Romney...
They really like pretty people that smile and speak softly.
Newt is not angry..he just doesn’t have a botox smile and speaks with conviction. It upsets their world.
I hope Newt goes for absolutely as long as he can down to the last minute and makes Romney’s life miserable, and I hope it pays off for him. I agree with a previous poster though—get back to concentrating on Obama and if he does go after Romney from time to time, attack him on his liberal record as governor not about the Bain stuff. That didn’t seem to pan out the way they had hoped.
I agree. He didn’t look good at all. The best course for Newt is to slam zer0 repeatedly, and show that he’s the best at it. In that speech tonight whem he went after the zero admin on they’re blatant anti-religious freedom crusade, he was brilliant. He needs to focus on that and not even mention the word “romney”.
I agree with you. Newt should ignore Mittens and focus his fire on Obama.
I didn’t find the presser to be whiney. Actually, I thought it was a good alternative to a speech. But that’s just me.
In the beginning, Newt was running a clean campaign. IMO, Mitt took control and forced him into defense mode. I guess that is a good political strategy on Mitt’s part. I hope Newt can get back to his message.
Conversely, although a lot of valuable time is being wasted, shooting down Mitt..silence doesn’t seem to be very effective either. As I recall..GWB tried to take the high road and we all know how that worked out.
The media has defined Newt as “sore loser guy”. I don’t agree. He has to beat Mitt before he can beat O.
