—>Newt is every bit as much of a Republican “Establishment” candidate as Romney.

I disagree-he's not like they are-They said tonight on most of the news shows that the GOP is going to try to destroy Newt. I think he will go clean house-they don't want any changes. Hume on Fox even said the GOP will try to destroy Newt now. They want weak Romney who they can control as a puppet. Newt is unconditional.

Hume said the GOP would try to destroy Newt because his negatives are so high according to the polls that many Republicans are afraid of running with Newt for fear they will lose the House and Senate.

I might believe all these “pro-Newt” posts, if only his actions, statements, and words over the last few years didn’t betray something for different.

I have posted several times in regards to Newt and his “Manmade Global Warming” fiasco - and while I have read posts claiming that Newt has distanced himself from that position - his official platform includes support for “green energy” and “alternative fuels” to “protect the environment”. That doesn’t sound like someone who has forsaken his wrong position - just softening it up to try to gain voters.

Newt is unabashedly soft on illegal immigration.

And I suppose the party of “moral high-ground” really isn’t any more....

Believe me, I fully grasp the concept that we MUST get Obama out of office. And I absolutely refuse to vote for Mitt Romney for even dog catcher. I firmly believe that, just as I have posted before, that our only hope is someone who is soundly Conservative, and who can “rally the troops” - There are no Republican candidates left who can, in my eyes, energize the party and the grass roots. Herman Cain was the closest - but his bad decisions flushed his campaign down the toilet.
