I am not a Newt fan but if the establishment hates him (left “D” and less left “R”) then I will have to reconsider and perhaps support him....

I think you have just defined phase 2 of the Newt Surge. Phase 1 was when his debate performances hit critical mass of people re thinking Newt and switching (aided by Cain’s problems too of course).

But Phase 2 is that now people have to realize that while Newt has spent a lot of time inside the beltway, he is NOT the choice of the beltway. And people are realizing that this is probably a good thing.

Whether or not you like Newt - and I fully understand why some do not - it is becoming clearer and clearer that he ticks more people off inside the beltway than does Obama or Mitt. Newt is not the establishment candidate.

Listen to all the talk radio people pretty much except Rush... Even Beck... I have never heard such cognitive dissonance. LOL Hugh Hewitt is going into full Lawyer mode of presenting any anti-Newt people he can find and questioning them like in a trial.

"And on the 11th of September, did you see said Gingrich meet Mr. Atta". I expect to hear that pretty soon...

They worry that Newt has a bad temper? I think some of these international toadys need a good smacking - Iranians, Syrians, Pakistoopids, and Pres Ben Kingsai of Afghanistan... Not to mention Hu's on First in Beijing, and Pooti-Poot.

Get 'em Newt.

LOL! There’ some truth to that. I can vote for any Republican but Romney, anyway. Actually, I think Newt will be a formidable candidate and a pretty good President. He’s been consistently attacking Obama, Pelosi and the Democrats, and has not been attacking fellow Republicans, unlike the rest. Newt is already acting like the nominee.
