There is a disconnect...something just doesn't add up.
I couldn't agree with you more. Newt is the Statesman America needs now, and the electorate is falling on their faces voting for shallow flim-flam artists.
Fox News and talk radio discount him, ridicule him and are blatantly and unashamedly annoyed with him on air. They've hung the crepe on the doors and windows of his campaign and yet Newt marches on.
“There is a disconnect...something just doesn’t add up.”
I know why: it’s because Newt hypocritically preaches “conservative values,” and “family values,” even though he runs around with the final product of two marital affairs. He cheated on his first two wives.
The Democrats and some Republicans rightfully bring up this point. How can he be preaching family and conservative values when he can’t keep them himself? Newt also has a long list of anti-conservative things he has done, such as advocating going after global warming while sitting on a couch with Nancy Pelosi, being for individual health care mandates, fanatically supporting Dede Scozzafava in NY-23, being an ethanol lobbyist, among lots of other things.
I’m not impressed with any of our GOP candidates. I wish Sarah Palin had run, or someone like Rick Perry or Michele Bachmann had not dropped out and were the frontrunner.
For now, I support Rick Santorum, but I have no respect for someone like Newt Gingrich who preaches one thing and does another.
