Yeah, if only he followed the lead of most freepers, and supported the disgraced ex-Speaker who had won a whooping two states in the 2012 primary, instead of backing the guy who ACTUALLY had a chance of defeating Romney in that election.
Too bad reason fell on deaf ears at the time.
GNEWT lovers don’t want to hear it but
1)He’s an establishment RINO and chronic flip flopper with an ego the size of Mars, not much better Romney
2)He destroyed his own campaign by attacking Romney from the left on Bain
3)It was he who stayed in race after he couldn’t win and divided the vote, allowing Romney to win easily. That’s right HIM, not Santorum, HIM. He was dead in the water and HE stayed in. His fans need to STHU about Santorum being a “stalking horse” for Romney.
I DO NOT think Rick Santorum should run again but I was proud to cast my vote for him over Romney, Geckoboy, and the trash Ron Paul.
You should not try political analysis at home...you’re gonna hurt yourself.
Newt masterminded the historic 1994 election, without which, we may have never had 2010 or 2014.
Newt tallied more votes in SC and Florida alone than all 7 candidates tallied combined in about 13 of these oddball caucus states and late primaries. Nothing after Florida mattered. It was DONE by then. Newt was about triple Santorum through SC and Florida.
And winning SC is the ONLY WAY Republicans win the White House. No Republican has lost SC in the primary and won the general election. Doesn’t happen.
Who gives a shit what 3000 voters say in the Nevada Primary? Or some primary in April. Don’t mean a hill of beans.
