Only 36% of Republicans voted FOR Romney, because 64% of Republicans HATE "Establishment Republicans".
Had a REAL Conservative won our Primary and not been SAVAGED by Romney, Obama would NOT be in Office.

Forget last night’s interview. Newt was much better tonight on Hannity and laid out exactly what Republicans need to do and explained why they have much more power than they realize. The interview begins at the 4:00 mark.

Ya gotta get the base to care. It’s not enough to get a bigger base according to passive polling. If it was, Mitt would have mopped the floor with Barack.
He thinks we should elect more Dede Scozzafavas!
Nope, forget Dede & Castle. Let us find more candidates like Todd Akin, Dick Mourdock, Doug Hoffmann, Ken Buck, Joe Miller etc. They will enhance the conservative agenda in Congress.
No more leftists shills like Akin & Mourdock. Real conservatives please.
Dede was a candidate that Gingrich tried to force into office. Then he lashed out as conservatives when they didn’t obey him.
“Forced” how?
Little point in playing a rigged game ....other than to continue to lend legitimacy....
>> No more leftists shills like Akin & Mourdock. Real conservatives please.
Ha?
WELL WORTH REPEATING !!!
Excuse me, but “the base” is Conservative, and DID NOT support Romney.
Only 36% of Republicans voted FOR Romney, because 64% of Republicans HATE “Establishment Republicans”.
Had a REAL Conservative won our Primary and not been SAVAGED by Romney, Obama would NOT be in Office.
I was 23.
This whole episode was painful.
Newt fuqqed up totally, and cost us a conservative seat for years.
And he doesn’t regret it all. It just reinforced to him how evil conservatives are. (to him)
I didn’t hear much on specifics as to how to get out the message better and counter the rats and the MSM. Train the caucus on the talking points? That’s it?
Newt is right but Republicans don’t listen to conservatives like him.
Have you noticed how the attention of the Democrat "mainstream" news media is focused entirely on what the Republicans will "give up"; what the Republicans will cave on? (Naturally, the Democrat "mainstream" newsrooms are pushing the GOP to commit party suicide by agreeing to otherwise thoroughly meaningless, drop-in-the-bucket tax hikes.) But what, exactly, are the rats bringing to the table? An agreement to "slow the rate of spending growth"? Wow, big whup.
Meanwhile, NOT... ONE... WORD... from the Democrat "mainstream" newsrooms about how much of the socialist welfare state Ubama and the rats are willing to give up to get a deal done. No matter WHAT the Republicans do, the newsrooms will make sure they get full blame for both the mean spending "cuts" AND the tax hikes! The rats have nothing at stake! What's to "negotiate"?
Talk about a lose/lose situation for the GOP.... Whew.
Absolutely the best thing that can happen is to go over the "fiscal cliff". The Republicans at this point should be strategizing how to make sure Ubanga and the rats catch as much of the blame as possible. The PR game starts YESTERDAY for the Republicans, and they are already playing catch-up - - the rats have been working on it all along. And now is the time for Republicans to go nuclear - - I mean, Ubanga is taking off for vacation in Hawaii while the nation is on the brink of economic calamity? That's some "leadership" there...
By the way, an added bonus for refusing to cave to the rats to strike a deal is that the GOP House will then get the chance to wrap the upcoming debt ceiling debate around Ubanga's neck. They can, each and every Republican, take to the House floor and recite word for word, Ubama's own position on the debt ceiling:
"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a Sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. ...Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that 'the buck stops here'. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and Grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."
- SENATOR BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA (MARCH 2006)
Introduce lots of smaller pieces of legislature to show the democrats as obstructionists in 2014.
Newt even reminisced about “Tip” O’Neill and Ronald Reagan on this point...
And Hannity agreed with him.
That was the major point made during the interview, discussed at good length.
They should make Newt Gingrich the head of the Republican party.
Then he could really be sticking it to Obama and the Democrats.
BTTT
