Guen, until 2:30 pm today, I had to come to grips with the fact that it might be all over for Newt. What I said is all true.
I am no hypocrite—I was not a supporter of Rick Santorum, and tried to not to badmouth him. I just think he was not as strong a candidate as Newt.
But there is a new political reality since 2:30 pm today.
Freeperdom is full of wailing and gnashing of teeth right now, that Romney is inevitable, or that Obama is inevitable.
I am not ready to join them. Not yet.
The new political reality for conservatives in AMerica is this:
Newt is the only conservative standing right now.
We have a choice to make.
Either support Newt or embrace your inner Willard.
I’m sorry Rick didn’t stay in , for your sake. I know you really liked him.
So yes, when all calms down, I will ask you to vote for Newt.
Until there are no conservatives standing.
And I would never laugh at you.
Best to you, Guen.
Standing to the last man.
Go, Newt. Stand, fella.
Agree, Exit82.
Santorum is a good man, there’s no doubt about it. In a perfect world, he would have been my president.
However, we don’t live in a perfect world, and the president has to be president of SO many different types of people.
My condolences go to Santorum supporters. I have not been too great about it either, and I know their hearts are breaking. My heart has been breaking for Newt — but Newt seems not to be any less “CHEERFUL” than he has been, so I’ve sort of stayed neutral and just waited, while continuing to admire Newt for his steadfastness.
I do hope everyone could rally behind him, now, however. ABO does not have to be Romney now — it never has had to be.
Again, my sympathy to Santorum supporters today.
You sound like a nice person, exit...
But you must know that Newt doesn’t have a chance..and like Guenie, I would never support him after what was said about Rick Santorum on this site.
