Because Santorum is an idiot and Gingrich is not.
ah, I see.
And yet for all the brilliance that Newt supposedly has, he never figured out how to campaign for the “idiot” voters, who it appears clearly now make up a majority of the Republican Party.
It’s time to admit the obvious. Conservatism is in the minority. Even if we make up 40% and liberals make up 21%, the squishy 39% of Moderates that don’t want to be called “liberal” are still liberals.
It’s ridiculous. The GOP under the current nominating rules will never be able to elect a conservative...again. The moderate/RINO will always out perform in the cities and suburbia, then get crushed in the same areas in the General Election.
Newt is a lazy and weak campaigner who had little going for him other than a few debates. He has not run a good campaign, picks and chooses states(wow, whatta fighter)and he is also broke.
Couple that with a seedy reputation and it is easy to see why he went nowhere.
Talk about an idiot.
How come the brilliant one has gotten crushed in all the last elections !
Because Santorum is an idiot and Gingrich is not.
Only an idiot or a crook would support carbon credits.
And Newt proves once again how he will win.He didnt even beat Ron Paul.The Newtereds are delusional.
Let’s see. Santorum comes in first or second in most of the primaries, Gingrich comes in third or fourth. Santorum is in second place in delegates, Newt’s third. The resident genius’ Southern strategy got blown to smithereens by - Santorum. And HE’S the idiot?
Full disclosure: I don’t back ANY of the Four Horsemen.
