I am a realist. The reason Newt has had problems is his past, fair or unfair, is that he is a known commodity. He has been on the same page as Romney at times. Not because he was a Senator or Congresscritter or that he was supporting the agenda of his President, but because he joined in with policies that were left when he had no reason to do so other than that is what he wanted to do.

In this election, on the GOP side, you can be for Romney, and the whole election is about finance policy, or you can be for Santorum, who is a blend of finance and socially conservative policy. In between, gets you Mitt, who has far more private sector experience than Newt.

It really is that easy.

I will say I will vote for the nominee, because there is no person worse than Obama.

I leave it up to the candidates.

Duke it out as long as you are smart enough to know when you are doing more harm than good.

I will vote for the winner.

We go over the same ground. Newt masterminded the takeover of Congress from 40 year Dem rule— that’s hardly an insider. Neither Romney or Rick could have done that- nor would they have tried.

I could go point by point wt Rick and Mitt- and by their governance, provide evidence that they are “insiders”, “unprincipled” and/or are “leftish”.

But, I don’t get into those negative arguments- I’m not going to change preconceived views, nor would I try.

Newt’s plan is the most conservative economic solution.
