I think someone is trying to already. He really does listen and I know some of his pretty high up staff, I don’t mean way up there, but above mid, comb the sites like crazy, here, and a lot of others. One lady in one of the closed groups I am in, said after Newt said that phrase ‘we don’t believe in a safety net, we believe in a trampoline.’ was just so upset because she didn’t think that ‘trampoline’ was a good image, and kept saying somebody needs to tell Newt it’s a springboard, not a trampoline... And the day after she posted that, in colorado, he used the word springboard for the first time... Well that lady actually cried when she saw Newt use the word springboard, the next day...

I have heard him refer to a video I posted on here when referring to santorum and use the exact same phrases in my post...

And he does little meetings like this all the time, no fanfare, they never make the news. But he listens, and not just for show:

We can’t let this man be destroyed... we just can’t.

Yes Newt is a good man.

What is happening is interesting. Romney is flooding states with negative imagery of Newt. People who have forgotten Newt or never knew him from the 90s are getting their first impressions from Romney’s negative ads.

But Romney’s lunch is being ate by Santorum who is blindsiding Romney with his own brand of negative campaigning. All of this leaves Romney in a Quandary.

Newt is right. This campaign goes all the way to the convention and Romney gets knocked out by Texas.

Once Romney is gone, the negative ads that shape public opinion about Newt will slow down to a trickle of what they have been. At that time it will be Newt vs. Santorum and Newt’s vision, experience, knowledge, strategy and tactics should win him the nomination.

So the key is to knock out Romney.

If the Tea Party Coalition can pull together the tens of millions of followers from 2010, and a majority of TP follower donate 5 dollars to Newt’s campaign, the campaign is over and Newt sews up the nomination.

Maybe he listened or maybe great minds think alike.

Trampoline sounds like something you keep jumping up and down on without going anywhere else. But Newt is not a stubborn ass; he eventually clues in to what’s better than where he was.

Well, if he ever wants to learn how REAL habitat restoration works, how to handle the environmental left as a corrupt and bureaucratic resource manipulation machine, and how to establish an entirely new industry in free-market resource management, than he or his staff can contact me.

I know the game, I know its history, I know how to fix it, I know what WILL HAPPEN, if we don't, and I know G_d's preventative strategy for preserving liberty on the land. I have the credentials to prove it.

Regulatory government has more to do with the disaster we are facing than does excessive taxation. Meanwhile, there are very simple unifying principles to fix the problem that translate from system to system, whether environmental, worker safety, education, or healthcare. NOBODY talks about them in this context. Yet I can't get past the consultants to explain it to someone who can communicate to the public. It's very frustrating.
