Right. Obama is out there attacking us every day, and here the closet Romney voters are attacking...Newt Gingrich. Yep makes sense to me.

Bachman has burned her bridges with conservatives by going after the other conservative candidates and not Romney or Obama. Had she been doing both she would still be a viable candidate. It was all downhill when she brought up gardisil and Perry

My, my resorting to calling Conservatives “Bible Thumpers” only took one reality post on Newt, the Frugal Socialist Candidate.

I was using an exaggeration to make a point and a distinction - but since you took it personally and totally out of context - I have no desire to try and help you through the point I was making.

Since you have no interest in anything but starting a food fight anyway.

“Yep.

As someone who agrees more with Bachmann than Newt, I would still support Newt because

A: he understands the battle is about Obama, and not about the other Republicans and
B; MB is too dull to figure that out and
C: Newt will actually accomplish more for conservatism than MB will IMO, even though she is more conservative philosohpically.

Being a mom of 58 kids and thumping your Bible harder does not make an effective leader (and I love kids and the Bible...just sayin’ what I’m looking for out of government)”

Well said

Glenn Beck called Newt a Progressive after 1/2 hour with him this morning.

Beck did a total set up today for Bachmann - He admitted he's a libertarian - he would go for Paul if not for Paul ready to give the keys of the kingdom to Iran.

Beck orchestrated a hit piece on Newt - nothing else to call it. He does 1/2 hour on radio - can see only BECK - and pommels him with his version of what he takes from past moves of Newt and not only doesn't really listen to Newt's answers but while Newt is talking, he looks to his other radio guy and sneers -

Then he had Bachmann on his TV show - for most an hour, nice close up face times. He asks her NO real questions, just sits and has a chatty gab fest and lets her go on about anything she wants.

Nothing but a fluff commercial for Bachmann.

So totally lopsided, unprofessional and deliberate to malign Gingrich and prop up Bachmann. Dishonest.

I have canceled my subscription to GBTV and add that monthly stipend to my Newt contribution.

Oh, there WAS one question Beck asked Bachmann. He asked in the case of things getting so bad that the national guard had to be called out across the country, what would she do?

She said she would talk to the people and ask them "What kind of country do you want? I would talk to the people.'

Wow, that's comforting.

Yes, the knives are out.

The Ivy League Establishment Elitists are coming out of their initial shock phase of wondering "What the heck is happening? We've picked Romney. Why aren't the people getting in line?"

We need to remember and keep spreading the word that ROMNEY, not Newt, is the Washington Insider. He's the pick of the WAshington elite...not Newt.

Newt went to a - GASP - college in Georgia!. He did NOT, like Palin did not, go to Yale or Harvard. He's not Skull & Bones, He didn't take One World Gov't: 101. He's already indicated who he may pick for his VP - (Col West) - a man who also NOT "one of them."

(They made a deal with Reagan when they saw he was likely to win - they'd sit out attacking him if he took one of theirs for VP - GHWB - and stack his cabinet and appointments with their people. (One of the reasons he was unable to fulfill his campaign promise of dismantling the Dept. of Education.) It's amazing he was able to accomplish all that he did.

Gingrich has enough of a power base that they can't force him to put in their people. They know their Power is in serious danger of being broken, like Humpty Dumpty.

WE are, at this point in the game, fighting the Republican Establishment Cabal. The media will gleefully join their attacks.

We need to repeat over and over that ROMNEY is the insider!

I’m attacking Newt for the same reason I attacked Rick Perry. He is an open border RINO who runs “The Americano” out of his K Street headquarters. He is even worse and more objectionable than Perry on immigration.

(1) What’s the difference between Newt and Obama on immigration? When Obama and Holder push for amnesty, they inspire resistance which leads to Republican victories in Congress and in states like Virginia.

When George W. Bush and Juan McCain and Newt Gingrich push for amnesty, they succeed in demoralizing conservatives and energizing the opposition, which predictably results in massive lack of enthusiasm which results in massive losses in Congress and the states.

(2) Why not bring back Arlen Specter and Lincoln Chafee and Bob Inglis of “No Labels” Why not let Juan McCain run again on his Hispandering platform of demoralizing conservatives to the point where the Republican candidate loses Indiana?

(3) What did Newt accomplish for conservatism as Speaker of the House?

(4) Bible thumping has nothing to do with it ... though, Newt might want to read the Bible, seeing how he is on his third wife.

Newt Gingrich is not from Georgia. He is not a Southerner. Newt was born and raised near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

Your arguments are such a litany of false choices, misrepresentations, exaggerations that they are not worthy of response.

Picking Col. West for VP would be a brilliant move.
