Romney Eyeing Blowout Keeps Foot to Newt's Neck
Buzz Feed ^ | January 29, 2012 | Zeke J. Miller

"It not about winning here anymore," one Romney staffer told BuzzFeed. "It's about destroying Gingrich — and it's working."

This means we are seeing the turn to totalitarianism, or we hope to fight to the convention, where we battle both Romney and Ron Paul for delegates on that second ballot.

Romney is a vile disgusting little man that has brain envy.
He is no different than BHO.

It’s always been about crushing Gingrich. After it was all about crushing Palin. And all about crushing Cain.

Remember when we thought it was Axlerod or someone in a Soros-funded group that did those things?

Now we know better. The insider Republican ruling class elite know that if anyone like Sarah Palin, Herman Cain, or Newt Gingrich wins the nomination - their days of being in power and control are finished.

Obama and his team think they can win against any Republican, by whatever means necessary. It’s the other side that is threatened.

As long as Sheldon Adelson keeps WOF well-funded, Mittens will have his work cut out for him! The fight has only begun, and Newt has vowed to take it all the way to Tampa!

If the Republican Party pushes another limp-wristed, spaghetti-spined Progressive-RINO-in-"Conservative"-clothing, a la Juan McCain, this WILL be the last year of a Dim-o-RAT/Republican, two Party Presidential race. And Mittens can NOT beat 0BowMao! I can imagine ZER0's opening statement at the debate .. "By the way Governor .. thanks for leading with the precursor to the individual mandate and 0bamacare." Game->Set->Match.

I didn’t leave the Republican party, the Republican party left me...

Well, I’ve still got Scott Walker and Wisconsin republicans - at least they are towing the line.

So sorry, I see this is a double post. I reviewed the first page and the sidebar. Just missed it totally. Sorry.
We may get bumped.

God help me, I detest Romney as much as Obama now. I always disliked him and I always knew I could never vote for him. But after seeing his cutthroat, ruthless, rotten, wicked, underhanded campaign against Newt, all the while keeping that insincere, superior little smile on his face, the very sight of him sickens me. He is one of the most repellent individuals I have ever seen.

What I don’t understand is, how can so many people not see it? How can they cast a vote for such a piece of garbage?

You said it!

It is incomprehensible in this day and age of information technology that we can appear willing to board-the-trains! I’m sorry, but this is so insidious and transforming as to make this poster believe it is not of ordinary human political magnitude, but the work of principalities and powers in a darkening world. Just staggering.

Surely the GOP doesn’t think that all republicans who didn’t support Romney and some that did will work for him in their state and give money after they exposed their dirty sleazy characters? They must bank on the fact we have no place to go so they don’t care that we know they are scum and we will have scum for president if he wins. I believe Newt will be president.

easy, it’s a 3 way race and Romney’s ads are effective at pushing people to the alternative (Santorum)

If Santorum were to drop out, they would have no where to go and the negative ads wouldn’t work as well.

Romney is in the perfect position, he can ignore Santorum (thus making him look better than he is) because Santorum will never pose a threat, while firing relentlessly at Gingrich. Romney has to thread the needle to win this, and he is pulling it off so far. However if Santorum leaves the race it’s a whole new ballgame and Romney will have to give people a reason to vote for him and not against Newt.

Have a look at who is really running the debt regime show, and avoid buying anything that you don’t really need. Become more self-sufficient each month. Do those things faithfully enough without stopping, and we’ll be in charge tomorrow.

I hate to say it, but Newt dropped the ball in the last two debates. Granted, I couldn’t really watch them because I can’t stand Santorum and Romney. Two long-winded gasbags in love with the sound of their own voice.

But Newt should’ve savaged Romney right then and there, and flayed him alive. I don’t understand why Newt didn’t.
