I really don't have a dog in this hunt. My favorite hopefuls decided for some reason not to run, so I can be counted as one of those undecided delegates. But what Newt was doing weeks ago that got my attention, he stopped doing. He is turning me off by playing the mudslinging game with Romney, without shame. Strong Newt supporters will not be shaken, as you can see here on FR, but the majority of Republicans voting in the primaries and caucuses are not die hard Newt supporters. They are just looking for the candidate with the “R” after his name that comes across as the most likable and that they think has the best chance of taking on Obama. Right now Newt is showing he can't even take on Romney, without losing his focus.

What a breathtaking statement. Any one with an honest bone in their body who can go back and view all that has happened would never state what you just stated.

Mitt has unleashed the most destructive, vile and despicable attack on Newt. Mitt is the one slinging mud, Mitt is the one lying about being Conservative. Since 2008 Mitt has given the orders to his ruthless staff to destroy any and all Conservatives who stand in his way. It was Mitt's people (Schmidt, Nicole Wallace) who led the blatant attacks on Sarah Palin, beginning in mid Sep 08.

It's Mitt's minions who were quoted in the past few weeks as saying "We're not going to FL to defeat Newt, we going to FL to destroy Newt Gingrich.

Those who say Newt looked bad, tired, bitter or whatever say such because they DO NOT support him. It is that simple.

I just viewed the presser and Newt was measured, tough and quite wise in many of his comments.

Politics is tough and brutal.

I want a fighter who will not put up with the bullc*ap and lies from anyone. I want that person to fight back.

My first choice was Sarah but she did not run. I was skeptical of Newt because of his AGW stance.

No one is perfect. The more I thought about what we face and the more I saw Newt, I came to the conclusion that he can indeed, once in office, turn our Republic back towards Liberty.

Newt is getting better by the week and money is really starting to flow into his campaign.

As it stands, Newt and all who support him have to battle: The lying vile Mitt, the GOP-e, the contemptible FAUX news, the rest of the MSM. That is a very tough group to defeat. But, I know it is possible and I feel that he will overcome the elites. He will do it because more and more Americans will be hearing his message and moving to believe he is the true Conservative in the race.

My certainty rests on the knowledge that Sarah Palin, will at the proper time move to support Newt fully in the battle against the Statists that infest so much of our Society.

For our Republic to survive two vile Statists must be defeated -- Obama and Romney. I feel confident they will be defeated.

There are many thousands just like you that really thought Gingrich was going after Obama but with all of this seeming vendetta against the cardboard man lately it sours many people that were for Newt going all the way. :(
