I think I can speak for Mary and I'm sure speaking for myself

when I say there's not a snowballs chance in heck I would EVER waste one vote on Newt Gingrich ..

...after ALL the ugly, sarcastic vitriol you and others here post regularly.

I don't believe you would recognize conviction, true patriotism and character if it hit you in the face.

To trash Mary like you just did is beyond understanding save to say.....You have no class....and that's putting it mildly.

How about you let her do her own speaking. She is capable of doing that, isn't she?

Oh, boo friggin hoo! You're not going to vote for somebody because of what someone says here? RIGHT! Give me a break! That's the weakest BS I've ever heard in my life.
And since you're on your high horse why don't you take your girl to task for the BS that rolls from her fingertips?

I can. I can also recognize BS when I smell it.

I didn't trash her. I took her up on her offer to look at her replies. Her replies speak for themselves.

You have no class....and that's putting it mildly.
Put it strongly then.

Lots of things are being said in the heat of battle that are making it hard for natural allies to work together. Newt and Santorum are natural allies. They believe in the same things, and I believe they both are willing to do what it takes to fight for this country and for the conservative principles that have made this country a beacon of freedom and prosperity. Neither one would want their supporters to get side-tracked over PERSONAL politics rather than focus on what the country needs.

At different points I’ve been so frustrated with both of them that I was ready to swear I would never have anything to do with either one. But in the end I have to do what I believe is best for the country, and the best thing is to have a conservative who can lead this country back to its founding principles if elected. If Rick was still in the race I’d have to choose between him or Newt in Nebraska’s primary in a couple weeks. Now Newt is the only conservative choice I have.

I originally wanted Herman Cain, and some of the Newt people were frustrating to me because it seemed like they had such “party spirit” (breaking into their little party and not giving anybody else either respect or a chance). That was disturbing, so I can relate to what you’re saying.

In the end, I think maybe they were acting out of their conviction and patriotism - because they truly believed that Newt was what we needed and that Cain was a distraction. And I must confess that I’ve been disappointed by Cain since then, so maybe they were wiser after all. Hard to say.

In any event it’s not they who are running; it’s Newt, Paul, and Romney. If you have a vote still to be cast, I hope you will vote for Newt based on what he stands for, but if you can’t vote for Newt because it’s just too much to swallow, I hope you will vote for Ron Paul - because at this point any delegate that doesn’t go to Romney gets us one step closer to a convention where the conservatives still have a voice. That’s what both Newt and Rick are emphasizing right now, and I think they are both wise and rightly-focused in that. I’m proud of both of them, for standing together for this country. And I am happy to stand shoulder to shoulder with the supporters of both of them; we have so much in common that we’re fighting for.
