“Also, Republicans in D.C. don’t like Newt at all and are still pulling for Romney to win. If Newt was truly the establishment-favored candidate...they would have all jumped on his bandwagon. Instead, they are all staying on Romney.”
Yeah, and in 2007 Mitt considered Newt for a running mate. In 2009, Newt team with Mitt, Juan, McConnell, Boehner, Cantor et al, to remake the GOP, etc., etc.
Newt’s mission is to neuter the Tea Party, IMO, and he’s well on his way ...
I’ve encouraged my Tea Party congressman to endorse Bachmann and I made sure to remind him that she came to Michigan to help him raise funds.
Just because Mitt considered Newt for a running mate doesnt really say anything to me. McCain picked Palin for a running mate. Does that mean I can assume Palin and McCain are politically the same?
