Independent women for Gingrich! :)
The establishment is worried about losing influence and power hence the all out assault on Tea Party, Herman Cain, and the trashing of Trump's debate so it was canceled. If they can control these things they will not let any else do it either. It is time for the TEA Party to make a stand and be heard loud and clear this election.
Yes, that’s what Rush said. Rove has American Crossroads.
If elected office holder want to go for higher office, forget it, if they endorse Gingrich. He said that’s likely why Governor Nikki Haley endorsed Romney.
I’m not certain that was her entire reason. Romney was an early supporter of hers, but she won the election with Sarah Palin’s endorsement and the TEA Party’s support.
I heard that Newt once excerpted a blog post.

Excellent points!
YES! Two of us for sure!
Just who in the Hell do the establushment types think the precius Independents are going to run to...Pelosi, Reid, Frank, Boxer, Sanders...? Give me a freakin break.
Screw th establishment. These are the same idiots that helped shove the media whore McCain down our threats! Never again will the establishment shove another squishy moderate like Romney down our throats!
Go Newt...and give ‘em Hell!
He nabbed this indy.
GO, Newt!!
GO, Newt!!
GO, Newt!! (I love the “paste” feature....)
Independents hate Obama, too. My guess is they will glad vote for the candidate that presents the best economic plan for the nation and that isn’t going to be Obama.
The main thing Newt has to worry about is the backstabber wing of the Republican party, not where the Independents will come out. Independents are going to be smiling and making nice comments about Barry right up until they go in the voting booth and vote for anyone but Barry. Just like with Carter, what the Independents and even marginal democrat crowd are telling the pollsters doesn't mean a thing at this point and probably won't right up until a day or two before the election.
JMHO
Why on earth do they think Newt cannot attract indies? Good grief. My husband is and he will vote Newt given the chance. I am a woman and I would. I WANT the things he is willing to talk about. I want the judiciary reined in. I want the spending cut and our budget balanced. I want Obamacare GONE. Like Romney had any credibility there. I KNOW I won’t get even an effort at that with theOne reelected. I have watched too many candidates already get lambasted by the RINOs ...no more.
Newt Gringrich allied himself with Ronald Reagan to build the Reagan Coalition, the Religious Right, and the Republican majority (together the Reagan Revolution) which directly led the downfall of the Soviet Union, the Contract with America, government reforms, less government, tax cuts, a balanced budget, and the great, long-standing Reagan economy.
Under a Republican president, they [the Republican Congress] added over $3 trillion to the federal deficit, shunned conservative policy in favor of Beltway influence-peddling, and so damaged the GOP brand that we...lost the majority Gingrich had worked years to forge,..How much should I really care that Newt’s fabulous colleagues think his reemergence would be a disaster for Republicans? Lest these characters forget,...2010 was not a merit promotion; they [the Republicans] were the only alternative in town.
The lamestream and the GOP-E have given themselves away.
Their plot against Gingrich is Iowa!
Stop him in Iowa. Embarrass him in Iowa.
Hope that Iowa is his "Waterloo" which happens to be the name of a town in Iowa.
Make Gingrich limp into New Hampshire, where Romney is strong. Hope that Gingrich is dirt poor with an embarrassing showing in Iowa, so that Gingrich will have trouble raising money to compete in NH.
That way, another poor showing in NH, will cause his strong polling in South Carolina and Florida to fall.
That's the plot.
DON'T LET IT HAPPEN!
It’s been peaky leading up to the present time. First Bachmann, then Perry, then Cain, and now Gingrich. To me the reason is obvious — Mitt is way too mushy to draw any real passion, and yes, the LDS has a large weird-out factor to mainstream Christians. Gingrich has offered the most “red meat” so far, and that’s obviously what the Rats will attack. Once the Rats get cranked up, Newt is going to be portrayed as a would be banana-republican.
Sarah Palin, where are you. You are sorely missed. Of all the top GOP names being bandied about for president, she consistently made the most sense. She must have been made a threat she couldn’t refuse.
The sole purpose of the Republican Party is to serve as an ineffective alternative to the Democrat Party.
Why would independents vote for Mitt when they can have the 100% real deal = OBAMA ?
