I support Newt, have nothing against Rick.

Just my view- Rick might be over-reaching going after Romney man-on-man in Mich-- he can't overcome that Romney, GOP-E attack machine.

I wish Newt and Rick would unite against Romney- but doesn't look like that's going to happen.

Oh well, start the clock.

I about as full of Newt as I am his daddy, Boortz.

Rick beats Romney in the Heartland/Midwest.
Newt beats Romney in the South.
Romney wins nothing but the wacko northeast.

works for me...as long as Slick Mitt is gone...

Santorum is a good and decent man, but I don’t think anyone seriously thinks he can run this country with the problems we have.

None of the candidates are perfect, but let’s face it, Newt has been there, and can get things done. He also has the most perfect vision of where our has been and what it can become. Anyone over the age of 50 should see that.

When Santorum and others attack the man’s ideas, calling him a dreamer, they really don’t understand that all Americans are dreamers or at least our ancestors were.

I’ve been for Newt now for 4 months. No remorse. This should be a two man race either Romney and Newt or Newt and Santorum, but the whole debate is getting dilute.

Santorum obviously will say anything to appeal to the people he talking to on any given day. He’s got no substantial record as being anything other than a senator who got beat badly in a liberal state.

Pledging to run a "national campaign" and denying he faces a do-or-die "Alamo" moment in Texas -- whose April 3 primary will award 155 delegates --

Excuse me, but the TX primary won't be in April.

Rick has been slamming Newt all along. Glad to see Newt doing some payback. I just wish both of them would concentrate on Mitt but Rick has not been able to help himself. GO NEWT GO!

Noot can’t stand someone else getting attention. His massive ego craves the spotlight. Go Rick Go!

They are running for office, and it is fair to point out the opponent’s weaknesses.

It should also be pointed out that Rick’s primary target has been Mitt, not Newt. For example:

Just Damn!!! The tired, old, angry Adulturer and the slick-tongued, lying, RINO are hell-bent now on destroying Santorum. They’ve already destroyed any chance either of them had to defeat Obozo with their destructive, negative in-fighting. I hope Santorum wins the nomination and those two have to sit in the Gallery at the Convention scratching their ba**s and their butts.

“I am not attacking them, as he did,” Gingrich said.

umm you’re the one who attacked Wall Street and ‘inhumane’ immigration policy while pandering to the open borders crowd.

I doubt that the GOPee attack machine will do much against Rick. If anything, they will hype him to try and help drain Newt's support. If the conservative vote is split more evenly between the two it helps mittens.

GOPee is not afraid of Rick. They are sure he wouldn't be able to fight GOPee as effectively as Newt, He's become plan b, unless there is a brokered convention, when they will bring out Daniels or some other squishy candidate.

I will not click on that jerk Rosen’s blog. He is on my bad list ever since he did a piece on Brett’s show about 2 weeks ago in which he basically said that Saul Alinksky was a good guy.

I like you Newt, but my tagline is how I feel about conservatives attacking conservatives. Your prime target is Obama and Romney. If you target those two, you’ll get my vote....if Rick is capable of effectively targeting those two and build up some sort of organization, then it’s him.

I’m flexible within reason. No to Mitt or Obama.

" His campaign cited a 2011 video, now circulating online, in which Santorum can be heard telling an audience in Harrisburg he has "real concerns" about efforts by the Tea Party to refashion conservatism, and added that he planned to "vocally and publicly oppose it." ....

I see even Newt has fallen for the RON PAUL political ad lie about Rick Santorum attacking the Tea Party.... even Newt can't tell the truth and distorts Rick's actual words... shame on you Newt....

What Rick Santorum actually said was he is against those movements ( WITH IN ) the Republican Party and the Tea Party that are trying to : Rick's words " to refashion " conservationism.... what's wrong with conservationism as it is Newt ? ...
Sorry Newt, and Newt supporters... you owe Rick Santorum a public apology for taking Rick's words and twist them and taken them out of context..
