IMHO, Newt Gingrich won't be elected President, but he is far and away the best choice for the post of top Republican strategist. Whether this is in the RNC or somewhere else, I don't know.
He needs to call the shots in 2008 while maintaining a low public profile. He can be the true "architect" of conservative victory once more. He led us to victory in 1994. He can do so again in 2008.
Gingrich should be to Romney what Rove is to Bush.
I agree Newt is Brilliant, and very persuasive.
He isn't just conservative, he is full of good new ideas on governing. And has a good grounding in history, philosophy..
I'll leave the discussion about baggage and electability to others, but in an ideal world he would be my top candidate.
If his baggage proves too great, I would consider Romney. I do not know much, but I haven't found the negative arguments very persuasive yet.
I admire Giulani's tough talk on the War on Terror, but I am amazed at how strong his support is among conservatives, when he really is a liberal on so many issues. He is so liberal that I'd have to say he is an unacceptable candidate for the Republican party. Perhaps he would be a good candidate for the Democrat party.
McCain is totally unacceptable, I don't trust him at all.
Newt has the blueprint to bring the party back to it's Reagan roots. I hope he runs just to get intelligent solutions into the debate.
Dubie, count me in. I'm with Newt.
We are supposed to put up a candidate that the left will vote for???
Worried about the MSN and the J. Leno jokes?
The MSN and the late night sophisticates were ruthless with Reagan.
Look at what they said about him even as he was on his death bed.
It did not stop him because he had the right stuff.
Newt has got the right stuff. He has already shown that he has.
I can't understand one thing. Newt is going to take a candidate who is totally unacceptable to everyone except the conservative wing of the Republican Party and make that man President.
But he can't do that for himself?
I do not see the logic in that.
Don't forget that Romney was governor of the most liberal state in the country. He is a lot more conservative than his record shows. There is no way a George Bush conservative would ever get elected in Taxachusetts.
Gingrich can't win the general election. Period.
You can't get anywhere with the Newt haters I mean no where
WHY?.. because he can see thru a liberal like a pane of glass..
And deal with them like the brain damaged idiots they are..
Newt is like Patton(a goon) except smoother..
Thats what the republican party needs..
Your right
That Boob took back the house in 94 and brought life back into the Republican party
Threw him under the bus, let's see wasn't he the man that was married and popping a government employee, the same time he was suppose to be after clintoon.
Disagree.
Voting for someone that can get elected to anything in MA is not high on my to-do list.
suppose to be
supposed to be
Romney can.
Romney the candidate with Gingrich as his strategist seems to be a good combination to me.
Did't Rudy cheat on his wife too?
