Thanks for this report! And a cool writing style to go with it—

It’ll be interesting to see how many of the RINO Romney supporters and news media types back Obama over Gingrich.

I saw those poll results showing Newt in a virtual dead heat with Obama and just had to laugh at all the talking heads who keep telling us that Newt can't defeat Obama.

Shades of Reagan. I think that, if Newt is the nominee, we are going to witness another landslide like 1980. People are desperate to vote against Obama if they are given a good enough reason to do so. Newt is that reason.

Awesome Dude, Thanks. Gold Star fer sure.

[GonzoGOP]

There is nothing like the smell of panicked RINO in the morning.

[Reaganite Republican]

Agreed in full

You know... I have spent a bit of time in the Sudetenland...

I think if Romney loses the nomination, a fuming Ann Coulter just might pull the lever for Obama.

[Maine Mariner]

Quite frankly I don’t give a Rat’s A** who Coulter votes for.

"I think if Romney loses the nomination, a fuming Ann Coulter just might pull the lever for Obama."

Let her. We already saw Colin Powell's "conservatism" at work. Let all these shills be exposed. I'm sick of Coulter. Apparently her hangout with the GLAD crowd has messed up her mind.

I just listened to Romney on Fox News trying to resurrect Newt receiving 1.6 million from Fannie/Freddie issue. He was so freaking obviously whining. He sounded like the class tattletale...Sidney Sawyer snitching on Tom to Aunt Polly.

Now, we have Brit Hume, a known Romney supporter, coming on to “analyze” the interview just finished with his pal, Mitt Romney.

Fox News: We Romney, We Decide

The Romney News Network.

BTW, why does a half billionaire leave a Crony Capitalist firm and spend millions to win the presidency, when it only pays a couple hundred thousand a year? Why does it make me nervous that Bain wants the presidency so badly that they’ve been running to get it for nearly a decade?

For those of us old enough to remember 1980 it didn't turn into a landslide until very late in the process. But I agree with you that this could be very similar year. There were lots of doubts about Reagan. The press hated him. The RINO blue bloods had done everything possible to try to stop him. There was talk about him having been divorced.

It was the blow up in the middle east that killed any chance Carter had. And likewise if things heat up over in Iran Obama is equally doomed.

[libh8er]

This is Hillary /Obama 2008 all over again..except on the Republican side. Once actual voting began, the “inevitable” and the long establishment favorite started to crumble.

[CASchack]

If Newt is the nominee, he should ban all former Romney staffers from his campaign. They would be the enemy within.

“Moderates” like Romney just can’t seem to understand why everybody doesn’t love them, except a few extremists at the margins. After all, they’re “right in the middle”, all things to all people, and willing to compromise without letting little things like liberty and free enterprise get in the way.

-- Others who make a living handicapping (and wagering upon) these things -like InTrade- have stock in a Gingrich victory in Florida soaring, now standing at 55%. --

When I checked Intrade this morning (probably 8 AM EST), the wager was real close to 50-50. Newt had a slight advantage (betting on his side cost more than betting on Romney), but rounding to whole percentage points was 50-50.

I checked just now -- 59-42 in favor of Newt. Hahahahaha.

They are already showing their hand by supporting Romney. I expect most of them will attempt to have it both ways, and seek redemption by grudgingly supporting Newt, or at least bashing Obama.

Current events with an open field of GOP choices is a better measure of their position, compared with what they say after a GOP nominee has been named.

I'm not a conspiracy nut, but I would not be surprised if the Mormon church was somehow involved. Those at the very top have to know it's a scam built on a historical fallacy, and the organiztion wants so very badly to be considered mainstream and not a just cult created by a con man that uses a family focus to lure people in.

Newt says he himself netted less than $50k from them, and they IGNORED his advice completely anyway

Mittens is desperate, I’m tellin ya... and acting it, per your example xzins
