YES.
Absolutely. Look how FReepers actually came home and announced on the election thread how proud they were to vote for Newt in Ohio. They and others like them gave Romney the win there.
This isn’t working. I appreciate everyone voting their favorite. But if FR sticks to the endorsement of Newt that helped so much before SC, it will only assist Romney at this point. And we know JR doesn’t want that.
The reason I wouldn’t want newt as president is because he has a deeply needy personality, probably from childhood, and he will be more motivated to fill his need for adoration and importance than to fulfill our need for a sane conservative steward of the country.
How Newt behaves when faced with this information, that his run from now on only helps split the conservative vote and give Romney that edge, will demonstrate whether he lets his desire for self importance or his love of country win out.

Only if Rick agrees to take speaking, debate, and Jaw-Jitsu lessons from Newt. I genuinely fear Obama would smash Rick in a debate. Rick will fail to challenge the premises of the questions and then chase the rabbits the press assigns to him every time.
Rick’s a nice man with a good heart, ....which is true of 100 million other Americans.
Ron Paul is dangerous.

Before everyone gets their panties in a wad. Obama is already starting to make the moves to destroy our military.
Ron Paul will just drive the knife into their backs.
I thought it was clever how the Obama military haters are going to cut Benefits for veterans and wounded soldiers.
Wonder how far enlistment will drop on that one.
One of Ron Pauls best friends is George Soros..
NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!
Mr. Newt will take it all the way to the Convention and he will win there! Time is on his side, and he has the Bold Solutions, and the Bold message. Time will give this to Mr. Newt! I feel it in my heart!
EAGLES UP MR. NEWT!
No way should Newt even think of bowing out....the south is his strongest turf....and should take this all the way to convention if he must. He’s the only man that can get done what needs to be in booting Obama and manuvering the Washington machine to get things right again.
Santorums plan is vague at best and doesn’t have any details of “How” he’s going to get to even first base...Newt’s going to hit the ground running and knows the path well...
Nope Newt needs to stay as Santorum will continue to loose his voters as they hear and see more of him and the veneer rubs off as we’ve been seeing..and for that Romney will rise again....but romney cannot rise above Newt if it’s Newt vs. Romney without the distraction of Rick.
‘Palin’...’Hannity’ and ‘Rush’ are now in Newt’s court....it’s on to Washington all the way!
Go NEwt Go!!!!!!!!!
I beg to differ, this NEEDS to go to the convention.
I think Santorum is the far weaker of the non-Romney candidates. He can’t win. OTOH, Gingrich would be a powerful opponent against Romney and Obama.
Romney, with all his money, consultants and top ad people, cannot close the deal. The dog won’t eat the dog food.
Romney will become the GOP nominee.
Obama will be elected to a 2nd term by the brain-dead American electorate.
Uh, no.
Read up on your Aesop.
Newt can’t carry Ohio. No Republican has ever won the presidency without Ohio. I love listening to Newt and I love his fire, but he can’t win. In the end, I think his ex-wife did him in.
It’s time for Gingrich to put the good of the Conservative movement first. A “GOP win” with a drop-in replacement for Obama is no win. By pitting two conservatives against the Establishment, Country-clubber, we guarantee that Obama’s policies will continue.
Newt, you can’t let that happen.
No way. Santorum is a pro-union, big government, “compassionate conservative.” He’s even to the left of George W. Bush, and George W. Bush got us Barack Obama.
Dream on, Scooter.
>> Gingrich needs to bow out
Your boy first.
No.
The candidates need to duke it out until one is left standing. Give every Republican across the nation a chance to weigh in. I live in CA and we have to elect whom others decide is the nominee and I can tell you, it sticks in our collective craw. The only folks who don’t like to see a long drawn-out fight-to-the finish are the country-club Republican elites, but things are different this time - it’s not business as usual and people are paying attention to what’s happening.
Newt Gingrich is the guy I want to see standing when it’s all over.
