Excellent post

Free Trade has killed good American jobs...and it basically has turned us into a welfare state. Free Trade Communism does not work

Romney truly lost the election when Obama ran ads all over the Rust Belt alleging that Bain Capital “bought companies and shipped the jobs overseas”. Romney’s “get tough with Communist China” talk did little to stop that claim.

Only a fool, moron, or liberal thinks Free Trade “works”, or is a “conservative idea”. Free Trade pretty much neutered the once strong British Empire...and every country that resorted to Free Trade now has to continue to raise income, and other, taxes to cover the Socialism that is used to replace the decent wages and economic infrastructure.

No wonder people like John Maynard Keynes, George Soros, Karl Marx, FDR, the Clintons, the UN, and many other left-wing people/groups are big supporters of Free Trade.

And...look at the EU collapse. They were started as a “Free Trade” group...and now cannot afford the Socialism to band-aid failed Free Trade policies

Romney created Obamacare and came out against the party’s pro-life platform, since he was pro-abortion.

You guys may have broken the republican party for good.

I was a big supporter of Newt but he regularly makes these goofy statements hoping to please the press.

1. Even if Newt is right (and I would dispute that) then why in the world would you advertise your weaknesses to the MSM? If it were Newt and asked to comment on the election I would say Republicans need to do a better job of getting their message out and not admit to any problems beyond that

2. Newt’s glorious characterization of Hillary is absurd. Why wouldn’t Newt use this opportunity to say what a lousy job she has done as secretary of state. She hasn’t done anything except screw up the middle east.

>I think he’s wrong on this one. Hillary is popular with some older women, <

You discount the fact that Bubba would do the lion’s share of campaigning for her at your own peril. The sheeple would embrace the chance to “re-elect” Bill 110%.

By 2016, Hilarious will be uglier than Madeleine Albright. Very few will vote for her.

“...the current GOP would be “incapable of competing””

Since when do Republicans compete against Democrats? Not since Reagan and then Gingrich.
