How can you NOT be a Newt Gingrich fanboy (or girl)? ....that's my question. Are you afraid because the media fears Newt? What candidate do you support that can out debate Gingrich? Pick a topic. What candidate can give a speech packed full of substance, history lessons, and bold, innovatve ideas better than Newt? No one. No one.

Why do you let the media dictate who your candidate will be? Deep down, many of you LOVE Newt, but are afraid to support him. Get over it. Grow a set. Quit doing what the media wants you to do. Romney hasn't faced any resisence from the media, yet he is the frontrunner? Now.... why is that? You do the math.

Look at the field..... Romney and Pawlenty.... lame and lamer. Romney is hailed as the economic expert, but Newt's economic plan was just rated an 'A' from Investors Business Daily. And they say he: "put forth one of the most laudable economic plans in memory". Romney is weak on pretty much everything else. ....and Pawlenty is weaker.

Cain.... Right on issues, but clearly lacking depth. His "I'm a real black man" comment will crush him if he actually gets the nomination. Even Republicans will reject that garbage.

Bachmann...... pretty good, but will it last? Can she win independents? Newt will not only win independents, buy also Democrats. It remains to be seen with Bachmann.

Santorum.... fairly solid. But..... his ability to win over moderates and even Democrats is fairly limited. This run is great for his future, and might land him a VP slot, but his chances of winning the nomination are very slim.

Huntsman.... RINO

Ron Paul....... very good on financial stuff, naive on national security. Will never be more than a fringe contender.

Perry..... overrated at this point.

Gary Johnson.... please. Looked totally nervous and awkward in his first and last debate.

Palin..... right on issues, but like Cain..... lacking the depth. If you disagree, picture Newt and Palin on stage discussing a topic..... any topic..... for 2 hours straight. The lack of knowledge, understanding, and experience would be clearly evident. She might even pull out a pad & pencil, and start taking notes.

You are a coward if you are writing off Newt Gingrich this early. Look at what your candidate says, does, etc.... and compare them to what Newt says. They are inferior, and you know it. Go Newt!

ALL candidates are cowards if they don't proselytize dismanteling:

1) social security
2) medicare
3) medicaide
4) unemployment insurance
5) HUD
6) Welfare (in ANY form)
7) National Labor Relations Board
8) bailout programs (of ANY sort)
9) Farm subsidies (of ANY sort)

that's a good start...

You’re nuts.

Gingrich has NO character. None.

He’s totally disgusting.

Newtie is a blowhard, unstable, immoral, and is extremely easily cowed by Dems !

The Clintons had him knee before them, strap on kneepads and those pads are still there and worn to shreds, after traveling around this country with Hillary, speaking in favor of her health care plans.

Sitting on that sofa with Nancy Pelosi, spouting utter tripe about "GLOBAL WARMING", makes him a moron!

Long before any of that happened, when many were still enamored of him and he was flying high as the supposed "brilliant" conservative, he pushed the egregiously moronic Alvin Tolffer books; especially "THE THIRD WAVE". Having read all three books in the series long before Newtie ever mentioned them, I was appalled that he was praising them. And yes, I understood them all, so don't even attempt to try to belittle me in any way.

Newt V Palin? Newt wouldn't stop talking and Palin would get her poinst across in a sentence or two, that would make far more sense than anything Newtie would be blathering on about!

"Just Newt being Newt. Until the money runs out."

Newt has spent the last many years building a grass roots organization. It is rather impressive. It has a branch in my town of 15,000 that has already been successful at the city level.

You are overlooking Newt’s weaknesses as a leader. He just can’t stick with a few simple ideas like Reagan did. He would go into the leadership meetins with another bright idea rather than stick with the ones they were working on. Like Obama he is basically just a college professor. He has this huge stock of information and always has to put it on display. Compare him with Ryan who has worked years on this one thing and not only has a good mastery of it but can see the connection between things much better than Newt.

Newt has ideas but an undisciplined mind.

He was in sum not very good in Monday’s debate. Palin has loads of successful executive experience, which Newt of course doesn’t have. He really doesn’t do the GOP any favors when he’s out in public talking about anything, let alone running anything.

Indeed, I fear the carbon racket even more since Newt fell for the biggest corporate scam in human history.

He wrote himself off.

I want conservative leadership on all issues.

I don't want someone who can quote a dictionary or encyclopedia, that is worthless for the position of POTUS.

I certainly don't want somebody who believes he has to move to the center to win.

I don't want somebody who dallies with want is perceived to be popular, such as Global Warming.

I don't want someone who supports extreme left-wing candidates like Scozzafazza.

I don't want someone who thinks we can't stay with Reagan Conservatism.

I want true, principled leadership.

I get that with Palin in spades.

I get mush with Newt.

"How can you NOT be a Newt Gingrich fanboy (or girl)? "

Sorry- That dog won't hunt. Newt is as dead in the water as Weiner. He, like Weiner before Thursday, doesn't even know it yet.

Newt failed as Speaker, why should I think he’d do any better as President? His problems have never been his intellect it’s his character.

What you don’t realize about Newt, is that he no longer has any influence, anywhere.

Nobody cares about him, he has no base, no audience, no constituency.

Not here at FR, not in moderate land, no where, nobody cares about him, he is irrelevant, nobody even knows what his politics are anymore, he is an empty suit looking for a seminar to sell Newtisms at.

This is the Free Republic web site. You think posters here are fearful? Afraid to speak our minds? Think again, chief.

Newt is a Progressive, untrustworthy loser.

Tell me how supporting Global Warming, the biggest fraud, with Nancy Pelosi Conservative?

Tell me how after announcing your run for President, going on a Luxury Vacation in this economy Conservative?

Tell me how routinely saying leftist leaning stupid stuff on the weekend news shows and then having to hit Hannity on Monday for a Mea Culpa Conservative?

Tell me how having to re announce your POTUS run in LA after your campaign staff abandons you for being a cuckold Conservative?

Tell me how having a harem of ex-wives is Conservative?

For every 10 ideas this guy has, 8 are total garbage. Newty goes which ever way the wind blows. How can anyone depend on him sticking to any principles? His candidacy is a total farce.

Newt Gingrich praises Barack Obama

Whaaa?? What does "even Republicans" mean. Kinda like saying, "Even OJ Simpson wouldn't be jealous of her."

Do you think Republicans don't have the race credentials the Dims have? I'm not gonna waste my pinkies educating you on how the opposite is and has been true. Pubs got a lot of probs these days but racism isn't one of them. Not by a long shot.
