Two questions for Newt-leaning Republicans

[OCA]

Gabby, you have stated before that Romney is the only one who could defeat Obama. Can you be more specific and state why it is you feel Gingrich can't beat Obama?

Jimmy, Newt will get torn up in the general election on his past "morality" issues. Just saying that its an easy target.

Newt is Fake Conservative, Looks like he's got some here buying his great talk though. I love to here him talk most of the time but his actions speak alot louder. He'll give the country over to the U.N just as fast a Obama both are globalist not nationalist.
But strictly as campaign against Obama I'm not sure how the Left could talk about Newt morals with a starit face while they are are nearly ready promoted sex with animals Gay marriage and looking for the NAMBLA vote. Multiple wives and little fooling around is pretty tame against the lefts supposed sexual "values".

But I just don't get why people are buying the Newt Snowjob AGAIN. fool me once shame on you, fool me twice.. um you won't fool me again.
well no wait a minute,
Iraq has WMDs and is gonna kill us, um.. Iran has WMDs and is gonna kill us ...nevermind

The IRS will be showing up with AK-47's
The government is involved in a conspiracy with homosexuals and AIDS

Rev looks like you and I may agree on some things.

This country will never be fixed as long as Dems or Repubs are in control, in fact it maybe too late. With either of those two in charge political payback and gamesmanship will continue with little attention payed to real problems.

Socially............forget it..........we've already flushed the country, its a cesspool.

That's correct, it's the trackable bills in the "new money" and the IRS is following you with AK47's like Mako sharks! I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried!!

Let the IRS come, hard to get blood from a turnip, Ak or no AK.

Newt said "...I'm not a Washington insider.." among other things this morning.
Does anyone buy that?

??......have you noticed how the Washington insiders do not want him elected?......does that make you think he's a Washington insider?.....

Newt is Fake Conservative

Newt is a fiscal conservative.....given the fact he's the only person alive today who led a Congress that reduced spending, I would say he's the last person you can acuse of being a fake conservative.....

If Gingrich ran in the general election, the media would find every skeleton in his closet and more. .

do you think there are any left?.....

All any nominee would have to do, is continually point out to the entire country just how much Obama has screwed things up in only 4 years.

the number one campaign slogan this year is going to be "what would Obama do if we gave him four more years, and why the fuck hasn't he done it already!".......

I'm pretty sure spending was never actually reduced, slowed down spending growth? yes, but not reduced.

[bullypulpit]

Certainly. Gingrich is a liar and a serial adulterer. What makes Newt any more acceptable than, say, John Edwards?
If Gingrich ran in the general election, the media would find every skeleton in his closet and more. Instead of the focus being on what Obama failed to achieve while in office, it would be Gingrich's past.
In addition to Newt's lack of moral integrity, he has favored some of the same health care issues that Obama has.

When Shrub ran against John Kerry, the GOP ran a campaign attacking Kerry's character rather than defending Shrub's performance in office.
The Dems will run the same campaign this year, only dirtier and more vicious. The GOP will spend all their time and resources and defending Newt instead of attacking Obama.

Gingrich...Romney...Santorum...Paul...Regardless of who wins the nomination, the GOP will spend more time and money trying to defend them than in attacking Obama. And watching the GOP eat their own is hugely entertaining. But this is just the natural consequence of insisting on ideological purity. As the ideologues become more and more radical, fewer and fewer can meet their ideological sniff test so they wind up turning on each other. This leads to the collapse of the movement, and the collapse of modern American "conservatism"...actually fascism...is a thing to be gratefully anticipated.

I'll give Newt and Clinton credit for balancing the budget they did get that done. Congress worked it and clinton supported it.
and Newt gets his share of the credit.

But ill post this list again:

That's doesn't spell conservative or smaller gov't to me very much at all but maybe all that IS conservative now a days with rank and file republicans.

And Obama Smart Bombing so secret threats and women and children , in Countries that haven't declared war on us. And Killing Americans without trial, or Claiming the right to Jail people indefinitely without trail is some how NOT facist when a democrat does it. Gab you need to wake up.

real votes, real political support and real verbal support are spin?

I don't think so.

[fj1200]

He supported NAFTA... RP supports free trade... Do you want to pick and choose what's conservatism?
