"This is the year to reset this country in a decisive, bold way. We need to teach the Republican establishment a lesson. We are determined to rebuild America not to manage its decay."

Are you used to a candidate that changes it's position?

Newt has. He was for the individual mandate before he was against it.

I surmised you would show that you are just a whiny poster. Grow up.

Unlike the other candidates, Newt’s got some experience doing this kind of thing.

I know this, if it looks like he is going to win, you can bet there will be a lot of people on Wall Street covering their portfolios in a way for protection because the Treasury audit will be something we have never witnessed in our lives. The perk walks will not stop. I hope Newt stays safe. He has threatened to expose the corruption.

Grow up.

Typical response from anyone who can't refute facts.

That proposal came from the conservative Heritage Foundation. They now have changed the idea of an individual mandate. You have to realize, when the Heritage Foundation considered this, the nation was being told by the media most of the citizens wanted health care coverage. It was almost like a fear in which we were going to get that so they came up with an individual plan/ idea. Glad they restudied the idea and people's voices trumped the media.

” This is why Newt, despite his negatives, is the guy to take it to Obama.”

Right you are! This surge by Santorum made me take a closer look at him. No thanks, Newt’s warts are not near so bad as those on Santorum. And Newt has a fire in his belly that’s absent with Santorum and totally lacking with Mittens. Plus Santorum says that there’s no place in the GOP for Libertarians. Ron Paul makes a lot of sense on a lot of issues. The GOP would do well to listen to him as well, instead of belittling and trashing him. Of all of them, he’s the one who has principles, something that is sorely lacking in politics today.

You cannot grasp the facts - they go over your head. Like I said, grow up and stop your whining.

B.S. from the olde pillsbury doughboy..

Took generations to get to here...Would take generations to get back to where we, as a Nation, should be...

Eliminating the czars and executive orders will be like taking aspirin for terminal cancer...

Only heroic surgery, as surgeons are wont to say, will offer any chance at restoring freedom & liberty within the framework of the former Constitution...

Thank you for your reply.

Now we know why he is still in office.

Amazing, first executive order seals his personal records. Wait a minute, that is unconstitutional.

Funny we have never heard about this.

Not much of a fact. You’re basically calling Newt a liar when he states he will repeal Obamacare, including the mandate, and that he himself has repudiated it.

This is all the Santorumbots have at this point, since their candidate, as exposed in that simple flier, honestly has no vision for the country. He is a tepid conservative with a tepid platform. But, woe to he who questions the integrity and value of Saint Rick!

Snarkiness from CBS as usual. Newt’s crowd was very enthusiastic.

The one who was underwhelming (that the MSM will never own up to) was Mittens. He just isn’t as good a fake conservative as BHO was a fake moderate.

The “conservative tradition” in our state of Pennsylvania for Republicans like Rick Santorum comes from the Pennsylvania Manuracturers Assocation.

They supported protectionism back in the 1920’s with tariffs on foreign made products that were made in Pennsylvania.

“Getting rid of the czars is not 40% of the damage, as was advertised.”

The czars dismissal was only one facet of it, if you listened to the entire game plan, starting after the election.

But the czars control a staggering amount of power and taxpayer dollars.

“The next President doesn’t have the power to cancel laws that were passed by Congress unilaterally.”

He never said that - he talked about enlisting Congress (hopefully more conservative House and Senate) to repeal those laws.

I think GeronL has selective hearing.
