Gingrich folks are starting to sound a bit more paranoid and conspiratorial than usual.

If he’s the best candidate, why won’t enough people vote for him to give him the lead?

If he can’t withstand negative ads in the primary, how’s he going to do it in the election?

The incessant whining from Gingrich/supporters is really getting annoying.

Like Sanctorum supporters never whine?

Where’s the whining, my friend? I merely post that many who supposedly favor Rick- really support Romney. I present evidence to that affect with this particular writer.

That’s all- no negative comment towards Rick or his genuine supporters. I wish him luck.

We’ll leave the “Whining” to Ricky.

Newt supporters don’t support Newt because he’s “Not Romeny”.

We support Newt because we know Newt has the Right Stuff to be a Brilliant President!

If you are still annoyed, try an aspirin between your knees.

I agree. I think it’s strange how enthusiastic Gingrich supporters are to point out Santorum’s flaws and how blindly forgiving they are of Gingrich’s. I’ll vote for Gingrich or Santorum against the Marxist, but I think Santorum has a better shot at this point.

Said differently, I’d have voted for Gingrich over Obama, despite his personal failings and occasional big government embraces. Unfortunately, I’m not sure that Gingrich could win the nomination even if Santorum quit. I think Gingrich supporters break for Santorum, but I don’t think Gingrich gets the same percent out of Santorum supporters.

I have chosen to support Santorum, despite his flaws. I don’t like some of his fiscal record, true enough, but I do think he is a better contrast on healthcare than Gingrich or Romney. I also think he has less personal baggage Gingrich. And frankly, if the guy can’t win because our electorate will hold traditional American social values against him, we’re toast anyway.

Judging by some replies above, I am sure this post will cause somebody to accuse me of being a Romney supporter in disguise, but one thing’s for sure: if Romney gets the nomination, I write in a conservative for president. I give my word of honor I will not vote for Romney. I can understand that no established politician will have a voting record I 100% agree with, but he is so far off it’s a joke, and I hope the conservatives teach the establishment a lesson if that fiscal and social LIBERAL gets it. He may be a Moderate in Boston, but that’s a liberal where I come from.

This primary war is just getting started.

Lets see how Santorum does in the South.

I think it will be difficult for Newt to withstand the negative ads in the election-—particularly if mittwits staff go to bat for hussein. Right now, I’m just passing the popcorn as Santorum and Romney go for each others throats.
