Look at OWS and see who is imploding. It is the left. Look at the last election and see who is imploding, it is the democrats.
He's the Republican flavor of the week. What I fail to understand is why don't Bachmann, Paul, Huntsman, Johnson and Santorum stop trying to prove the impossible and drop out of the race altogether.
The Democrats won the last presidential bid. And with all of the Republican screwups and infighting they'll likely win the 2012 election. They're becoming a joke. Perry and Cain sound absolutely retarded. Paul constantly makes a fool of himself. If the best that the Republicans can offer is Gingrich and Romney then they better plan for another 4 years out of the White House.
He has a proven record, he knows what he is talking about, people like the message and he will smoke Obama in a debate. Looks like a Gingrich/Romney campaign to the convention.
Pretty soon the media will focus on Newts history.. His flip flops. His cheating on taxes..his wife..his country.. Old.. fat.. Republican back room politics as usual ? Not a chance.
lol NEWT? All Newt does is say whats politically expedient at the time. He may one day make a great history teacher, never a great president. He is by far the worst flip flopper the GOP has. http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs...dede-scozzafava-and-cap-and-trade_561116.html http://thelastword.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/05/18/6670784-newt-dont-quote-me-on-that
I don't think Newts flip flops will translate into much of an argument for electing the flip flopper in chief Obama.
Newt voted for the Mexican bailout, the Wall Street bail out and NAFTA. He's forceful and fast on his feet.. which is attractive, but he will say anything in the moment.
Newt wasn't in office for the Wall Street bailout. The Mexican bailout was paid back, and NAFTA was passed on a by partisan basis.
Don't worry. It won't be Newt. The Democrats won't have it so easy. He's only in the race to get his name in lights, and sell some books... Bro
So you want someone just like Obama? In that case you could vote with your eye's closed if you give Newt the nomination. You get what you want either way.
Funny how Gingrich likes to portray himself as the second coming of Reagan. Here's a little something. In the 1970s, Newt Gingrich voted for the creation of the Department of Education, which is a department that Ronald Reagan wanted to eliminate. A Department of Education was also heavily supported by several early socialists and Jimmy Carter. With programs like No Child Left Behind, it has led to a large decrease in the educational standards in public schools in the United States. Here is what Ronald Reagan had to say about the Department of Education in his 1982 State of the Union address: "The budget plan I submit to you on Feb. 8 will realize major savings by dismantling the Department of Education." Also.......... -Again in the 1970s, Gingrich voted to give communist China Most Favored Nation status. China, a leader in human rights abuses, now owns over $800 billion in United States debt according to a Department of Treasury Report in the 1st fiscal Quarter of 2009. -Gingrich voted to give $13 billion and $31.8 billion in foreign aid in 1994 and 1995 respectively. Whats with the spreading of the wealth, Newt? Is it only socialism when it is domestic aid like welfare? NOTE: Gingrich now agrees with Rick Perry that foreign aid should start at zero and only given when there is a clear benefit to the US. Why the switch, Newtie? -Newt Gingrich was the driving force behind the passage of NAFTA and GATT in the 1990s. Under a lame-duck session of Congress, Newt pushed for the unconstitutional North American Free Trade Agreement and the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, both of which removed power from the people and handed it over to an unelected panel which mostly consisted of non-US members. -Newt Gingrich has been a member of the Council on Foreign Relations since 1990. And currently...... "The core of our Contract," and the solution for those "trying to figure out how to put me in a box," he said, could be found in a book by futurist Alvin Toffler called "The Third Wave" to which he added: "I am a conservative futurist ." "On the Constitution, from The Third Wave.... "For the system of government you fashioned including the very principles on which you based it, is increasingly obsolete, and hence increasingly, if inadvertently, oppressive and dangerous to our welfare. It must be radically changed and a new system of government invented, a democracy for the 21st century. For this wisdom, above all, I thank Mr. Jefferson who helped create the system that served us so well for so long, and that now must, in its turn, die and be replaced."
Easy, they are each hoping to be the next in a string of unlikely poll surges. Overall, this group of GOP candidates has been the most dynamic in popularity that I have ever witnessed. If there was any race to stay in until the last second hoping for a miraculous boost, its this one. That being said, time is running out and I don't see any more meteoric rises after Newt's recent one.
Herman Cain, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich are in a dead heat as the top choices for Iowans likely to attend the Jan. 3 Republican presidential caucuses. A Bloomberg News poll shows Cain at 20 percent, Paul at 19 percent, Romney at 18 percent and Gingrich at 17 percent among the likely attendees with the caucuses that start the nominating contests seven weeks away. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-...ay-republican-dead-heat-in-iowa-caucuses.html
From the most recent polls I have seen, Romney is the only Repub who would beat Obama in a head to head matchup. The Republicans dont want to get behind him though. I loathe the republican party, but Gingrich is clearly a better candidate than Perry or Cain. He at least attempts to use his brain. Romney is still the only Republican I fear. He is a moderate no matter what he tries to say to win the primaries. But Repubs hate Obama so in the end they will side with Romney. But because of Romneys moderate stance on things, many Independents will side with him as well. Besides Huntsman, the rest of these guys are too extreme for the Independents to follow....Except Ron Paul, but he just wont bring in enough Repubs because many Repubs view him as a liberal on most social issues. Much more than Romney. Obama would ruin Gingrich imo. But not as badly as he would ruin Perry or any of the other right wingers.
You're right, and the fact that these poor people will buy his books is so sad. He's laughing all the way to the bank. Now the media and the dems will focus on lardboy because he's the frontrunner. He won't be so smooth in the next debate.
That is just a typical tactic of the left, to character assasinate every possible opponent of BHO. You don't know which one it will be, so you put down all of them. BHO has destroyed our economy worse than when he got it and that is all that matters come election day, it will be anybodybutBHO.
