You offer the kindest compliments to FReepers, while it’s YOU who is the RUDY among us. Thanks for all you do for Newt and Newt supporters.
I know that going into the convention to make a difference needs to start now, and absolutely requires a leader now, giving direction to his delegates and to those who will be trying to be slated as his delegates. Crickets from a leader is not going to cut it, do you think?
The convention is our last earthly hope for an upset to Romney and for the whole RINO herd.
Going off a cliff on a wing and a prayer is not quite the same as going off behind a leader worthy of his calling and the cause. And God takes care of the rest.
I want to hear Newt boom and bellow and lead us across the Delaware and into that convention, right away. We can’t lead him into the convention, but he must lead us.
What’s your opinion on convention preparation strategies, per Newt. I have heard of nothing, actually. It troubles me.

Well, he's got one thing coming out - it's complete in all but the final stages - but those who know about it have been asked not to talk about - or I would tell you, and I think it would make you feel better. So if you can, hang in there on that one.
Second, his planks are coming out and that is basically going to be his new campaign, along with his Day One, and American Solutions. Also, why maybe you are feeling a little worried is he is focusing, for almost a week now, almost entirely on delegates, forging relationships with them, getting their support, for the convention. The one big unknown is, of course, they may be strong for him now, but can they handle the pressure they will encounter at the convention. So he is doing that himself with his top staffers.
CT DE and NC - are his three foci - DE is small, NC is his kind of state, and in CT there is a stealth grassroots campaign being run by a dynamite pastor there.
If he can bring it to bear on all these little fronts, keep nourishing his delegates and strengthening their resolve, and if Perry can deliver him Texas... then you can see there is a path.
Perry has to be encouraged, i imagine the pressure is going to increase on him, I am not sure how ironclad his hold on the texas gop is, but I have been reassured it is very strong.
Santorum supporters need to time to grieve, but maybe half of them will go to Newt, but the other half to romney.
I was going to mail this, then decided to post it because i figured lots of Newt supporters were having the same worries. Me - I worry about everything.
There is also the just-beginning stages of overtures to the more sane paul supporters - there are some, believe it or not.
Anyway those are all my best-case scenarios. I hope it helped a little. If you have any more concerns I would appreciate if you let me know.
This is what I think you call a defining moment for the campaign.
