If Obama gets a fairly good bump out of it, watch out for the MSM/Dems to remake him into version 2.0 by November — and he will be difficult to defeat.
If Obama fails to get much of a bump, the MSM/Dems will still try the remake, but Obama’s tenure may be over.

High gas prices? Obama could pull a Clinton and release the Strategic Oil Reserve to help control them.
Joblessness? The BLS is already manipulating the numbers and they have misplaced some 6.8 million un/under employed from their calculations. They can misplace more to get the number more palatable.
Exactly,lies are all they have and they will run on the anti-truth.
Morning Sir, great column as usual.
Ooops, Myth said “in the final analysis” again.
Drink!
I really like what Newt said last night - Paraphrase - "It's not that I am a good debater. I am able to articulate the deep beliefs of the aAerican people."
The question then arises - Are there enough Americans?
Of that, I am unsure.
Coulter was ugly. she is pissed and becoming unglued. All of them are. Its amazing to watch. She basically is telling 200000 people that they are stupid.
DNC Dave now joins the clan of beat up DBM types like John King who won't be able to sit down for a few weeks after daring to take on Newt!!
That fat basta__ Chris Christie now on with dnc Dave. Its a love fest between an avowed Rino and a left wing Marxist.I can't stand that clown. He bashed Newt pretty good.
Has anyone on this thread ever heard Chris Wallace use the word “compromise” when interviewing a Dem politician?
someone needs to give him a clue: EVERY STATE is watching.....and discussing. We're in the twenty-first century Willard. We have internet, cell phones, cable television and the capabilities to look into the candidate deepest darkest secrets, SO when are you going to release your tax papers?
(We have the financial report that says you earn up to fifteen and a half million dollars each year from the company you repeatedly said you "left" in 1999.....Guess it depends on the meaning of the word "left")
Did anyone else notice Romneys new line of attack?
He twice used the word “sobriety” in contrasting himself to Newt.
Pretty good segment on CBS about Detroit making a comeback.
Time to pay back the taxpayers and GM corporate bond/stockholders or return their property.
Thanks hn, I have to leave something for your mind to do. In his case he is a mouse and he is in the open waiting for the talons.
Watched Coulter and she is pissed at those hillbillies in SC. The hypocrisy of being angry at them going after someone who throws hardballs rather than Mitt is stunning. She made a career of being a bomb thrower and now is offended and calling him a cult leader.
Exactly, when DNC Dave asked Newt if comments like zero being a Saul Alinski mole would backfire on him he got a fast ball fired back at him that was too fast for Dave to hit. Newt is the only one who has the guts to go up against the regime and he does it with class and brilliance.
Okay who is DNC Dave? missed it!
Polling showed voters who identified themselves as “moderate or liberal” went for Romney. “Conservative” and “very conservative” voters voted for Gingrich.
Moderate/liberals know Romney’s not conservative.
Conservatives know Romney’s not conservative.
Polling also gave the Mitt-Slobbering-Media a 14% favorability rating.
It was stunning to watch Coulter’s tirade. She basically called all of her readers idiots who are now Democrats. She had no substance other than the usual cliches that Newt made mistakes. Yes he did, but he got spanked for all of them like she is about to for supporting a NE Rino.
Sorry for the long post, but please read!
Absolutely, Mr. Wizard! And there is a TON of ammunition out there that they just seem unable to use. I stopped wondering why that is; it’s the GOP, and that’s what they do and how they operate.
Just like McCain not going after Obama’s anti-Americanism, when there was just so many examples he could have used to illustrate the stark differences...
Over the past 4 years, Obama and the democrats, and their skunks in the media have said some extraordinary things against the values and thoughts of the majority of this nation, and the GOP is content to let it slide and never show the utter hatred of the deomcrats.
Now Newt is CORRECTLY outraged and isn’t afraid to show it.
The whole damn GOP needs to do this. Newt doesn’t even have to win, if we could just get the vast majority of Republican politicians to start sticking up for this country and going on the offensive.
Still, we now know they won’t. When I started posting on Free Republic in 1998 I, like most, was unaware at how insidious the RINO disease was. I was puzzled why Clinton, Gore, etc could argue so well against ours. The democrats would use any lie, any smear, andf method to attack the Republicans and our guys would bend over and take it. It took us a while on this site to figure out the RINO game.
It seems to me that too many have the RINO disease today. It is the desire to not rock the boat, their unholy desire to placate the media, perhaps because they truly don’t know how Leftist they have become or perhaps they think if they’re nice they’ll eat them last...
Look at McCain as the primary example. NEVER was there a Repulbican who pleased the media like this MAVERICK. Why, he was the ANTI-Bush, one whom the media loved, and many a dem-voting independent told me that if McCain was only the Republican, they would surely vote for him because he was not a Bible thumping social conservative.
Yet, when it finally became McCains turn, what happened? They unloaded on him as if he was David Duke, Jerry Falwell, and Barry Goldwater all rolled into one. He suddenly became the ARCH-Conservative, Bush-lite war monger, and this happened virtually over night. All those independents who we were told who would vote for a tamer, less strident, less conservative Republican voted for Obama.
So I don’t know why anyone would think that true conservatives in this country would chose Romney over Gingrich.
I think it’s obvious that going Left isn’t going to cause us to start winning more elections.
2008, what they did to McCain (and how he went along with it) and Palin, and 2010 and the spectacular wins then prove that going Right and more importantly: TAKING IT TO THE LEFT, is the way to win.
Now, of all the Republican candidates out there right now, which one is most likely to do so?
Hint: It isn’t Romney.
