Maybe you should look at my posting history. You would see that on numerous occasions I have stated how much Newt has pissed me off in the past. He’s hardly a perfect candidate to me. Neither was Reagan, but then again, I’m not always right.
Reagan was a Democrat, raised taxes & signed the first abortion bill in Calif., signed off on amnesty, raised taxes as president, endorsed RINO’s, & ruffled the feathers of the elitists more than once, etc., etc.
He’s still one of my all time favorites, warts & all. I didn’t focus on his negatives because his positives, & what he could do for the country far outweighed the negatives. I feel the same about Newt. He’s got a boat load of laundry. But I feel he’s the right guy for the right time, much along the lines of Reagan & Churchill (who also had his fair share of baggage). I just don’t feel that “right guy for the right time” w/ any of the other candidates. They either don’t have the experience or the fortitude to go after it, & both will be necessary IMHO.
We need someone that will give us conservatives that “YES!” moment we haven’t seen since Reagan. No one has delivered those moments thus far except Newt, nor in my opinion will they due to the afore mentioned.
We want the same thing for our country and I sincerely hope you are right about Newt.
