Yeah sure. You’re repeating like a parrot what the lamemedia propaganda nailed in the voters’ mind with “Newt’s baggage”, “he’s got too much baggage”, “baggage carrying Newt” and so on and so forth. If you want to look at his “baggage” compared to Mitt&Rick’s empty suits, HERE WE GO!

If at 68, a man has not “baggage”, that means his life was empty and his achievements were nil.

Talk about a “baggage”:

10 uninterrupted terms serving in the House of Representatives (1979 - 1999)

The House Republican Minority Whip (1990 - 1994)

The first Republican Speaker of the House in 40 years (1995-1999)

Author of 23 books, including Lessons Learned the Hard Way (1998), Winning the Future: A 21st Century Contract with America (2005), Rediscovering God in America (2006), and To Save America: Stopping Obama’s Secular-Socialist Machine (2010). He also co-wrote an alternative history series on the Civil War and World War II.

In 2003 he founded the Center for Health Transformation to develop a 21st century healthcare system that is centered on the individual.

Served on the Hart-Rudman Commission, formally known as the U.S. Commission on National Security/21st Century

Gingrich has taught at the United States Air Force’s Air University, where he is the longest-serving teacher of the Joint Flag Officer Warfighting Course.

Honorary Distinguished Visiting Scholar and Professor at the National Defense University where he teaches officers from all of the defense services.

Guiding coalition member of the Project on National Security Reform.

Created the production company Gingrich Productions, and religious educational organization Renewing American Leadership.

Fellow at conservative American Enterprise Institute and Hoover Institution.

Quite a “baggage” indeed!

NO OTHER candidate is more qualified than Newt Gingrich to become the next President of the United States of America.

I will have no problem voting for Newt if he wins the primary.. which is becoming less and less likely..

I will continue to enthusiasticaly support Rick Santorum as the NOT-Mitt candidate..

I seek no “war” with Newt supporters but only question how realistic his chances of winning the nomination and if he REALLY wants to defeat Mittens than he should stay in the race continue to take on Mitt and direct those votes to Rick Santorum.... THIS is the BEST strategy to ensure Mitt does not get the nomination... do you agree? If so, we should keep our focus on defeating Mitt and if you can’t enthusiasticly support Rick Santorum at least have the decency to say that you WILL support him if he wins the nomination as I have stated for Newt.

Bottom line, Newt supporters need to stop attack Rick and keep your sights on taking whatever support Mittens has left...

Cain was vetted and attacked, Perry vetted and attacked, Bachmann vetted and attacked, Newt consistently smeared, attacked, vetted and bashed but SANTORUM is supposed to get a free pass on free republic? I think NOT!

GO NEWT! WOOT! WOOT! America needs the Speaker to turn this nation around and back on the right track. Newt is the man!

Baggage schmaggage.

Newt’ll knock their “jimmys” off Wednesday night and send THEM packing.

They’ll all be leavin on a jet plane...

Hope their bags are packed
and ready to go
Newt’s standing here
enjoying the show
He’ll love to wake them up and say Good Bye...
The dawn is breaking,
The nation’s perked
Mitt’s campaign tanking (’cause he’s a jerk)
He’s ‘bout to be so lonesome he could cry

So help Newt and smile for him
show him that you’ll vote for him
Support him like you’ll never let him go
‘Cause they’re leavin
on a jet plane
Hope they will NOT be back again
GO NEWT - it’s time to GLOW
