Romney’s not quite so dumb as I thought.

What is Romney afraid of?

Maybe Romney could send his boy Chris Christi to debate Gingrich.

Myth Romney. Two faced, speak out of both sides of his mouth with fork-ed tongue flip-floppin' RINO SOB.

Smokes Hopium, too.

RINOmney’s perfectly lubricated zero-friction weather vane wouldn’t have had a chance against Newt’s blast-O-words.

Not that I’m particularly a Newt fan...but I just cannot stomach a man that has managed to come this far without ever encountering an idea that he feels strongly enough about to defend.

Even the Cretin-in-Chief supports ideas. (Dumb ones created by intellectual weaklings that have never worked...but they are ideas nonetheless.)

Because he knows he would get his a$$ handed to him. Romney is not a bad debater, but Gingrich has been, by far the most capable debater since the first debate. Despite his "baggage" he is quite adept at thinking on his feet.

I'm guess the Romney camp plans to use the tactic that worked so well for them on other candidates. That is to ignore them in public, and turn the smear machine into high gear behind the scenes.

You're a RINO!

NO! You're a RINO!

You're a flip-flopper!

NO! You're a flip-flopper!

I'll be the nominee!

NO, I'll be the nominee.

Maybe the cancellation is a good thing.

Newt would murder Romney in a debate and Romney knows it. If Newt gets the nomination, he will get the same response from Obama.

Romney helpfully supplies Obama with a precedent to follow.

And so would Obama. Neither of the two are that stupid. Gingrich will never get the chance, in ANY debate with Romney or Obama.

Of course he would! No way he can match Newt’s knowledge!

the Romney campaign politely declined in a series of mostly e-mail exchanges

More good publicity for Newt. But of course Romney knows a trap when he sees one so he was wise to decline.

The more I read about “Lincoln-Douglas debates,” the more I think the people who clamor for them don’t know what those were like. And I KNOW the journalists don’t know what they were like.

HA! Chickensh*t.

Expect the same reply from Obama if Newt wins the nomination.
