What PMO is Newt got into this HUGE debt to where he essentially has to drop out because of what appears to be financial mismanagement. Instead, Newt could be riding it out and fighting harder to take down the GOPe/rinos like crazy Ron Paul is trying to do. Newt could be in there at least until Romney gets 1,144 PLEDGED delegates! This would allow him to cause as much contention as possible at the convention. I fear Newt is not only bankrupt, but too loyal to this moderate GOPe!

Now, it just appears Newt is giving in to the RINOSTIC Romney and the GOPe. I am very disappointed, but these events cause me to want to press on that much more and become a complete obstinate agitator to wrest control and power from this class of wanker GOPe PRIX!

Until all conservatives realize the GOPe is the enemy within, we are screwed as far as gaining any control to effect the direction of the country!

That may make you feel good, but it won't accomplish a thing. People are not going to follow "complete obstinate agitator" behavior.

You want change, you put your happy warrior game face on and haul yourself down to the local Republican party office (start at the precinct level if you haven't done it before), sign up, attend meetings, go to events, bring family and friends, and push that little piece of the political landscape to the right. Move on from there. Sorry, but this is a ground up process. Screaming, yelling, threatening to be disagreeable at the convention, etc, won't do a thing.

If you already are an active party member and have done this stuff, all I can say is encourage others, use social networks to get more people active (that means out from behind the keyboard), etc. The more actual conservatives take part in the process, the less the hug-the-center establishment gets its way. I know people don't like hearing this, but that is how it really works. The rest of this talk about starting new party's, voting 3rd party's, writing in candidates, waiting for the White Knight to swoop in and save us at the convention, etc, is just the same silly bluster and fantasy we hear every 4 years.

Newt's not "giving in;" it's over. Santorum sealed that deal for Romney just as he was tasked to do.

There's no money to continue. There's no support.

There wasn't financial mismanagement. Due to the fickle nature of the not-Romney block of voters, Newt surged too late. He had to rush to build an infrastructure and was faced with a candidate who had years to build his ground game and his fundraising.
