ME TOO! My mother loved Mr. Newt, and while she a very virtuous lady, and only married once — to my father, all she ever had was sympathy for Newt’s marital problems (but she also felt very sympathetic toward Hillary Clinton, although she never would have voted for her.)
Part of the reason why I support Mr. Newt is because of my mother, I know if she were still alive, she would have been a Newt supporter from the beginning, instead of a latecomer as I am.
Mr. Newt did make some mistakes here in Nevada. He should have spent the majority of his time here in the north, and not in Vegas. This is where the republicans are located and I thnk he could have won; 12 people showed up for my precinct, 2 Paul supporters, 2 Gingrich supporters, and 8 Romney supporters. We talked for about an hour before we voted. When we voted, the results were 2 Paul supports, 4 Romney supporters, and SIX Newt supporters. Those original 8 supporters were Mormons. Clearly Romney’s support isn’t very deep. Newt could have pulled this off if he had stayed here.
I agree he could have made a better showing if he had really worked the caucauses. I think he is betting the farm on Super Tuesday and picking up most of the south and some of the midwest. Hope he does it.
