How conservative is Newts’ record?

If a rating of 100% from the American Conservative Union isn’t good enough for you..then what is it going to take?

I liked Romney in 2008, considering the alternatives, and he certainly LOOKS presidential, but as info came out about Romneycare, his recent pandering to the climate change crowd and other issues..my enthusiasm dimmed considerably. He looks too much like the other “establishment’, northeast moderate republicans we have had in the White House recently.. like GHWB and GWB. I want a SOLID conservative with fire in his belly.

To be honest, I always thought the “baggage’ of Newt’s divorces made him a non-contender.

But then, the more I think about it..that was what the liberal MSM WANTED me to think!

I like Bachman.. but her lack of executive experience turned me off.

I was happy when Perry entered the field , but his performance in debates and inability to defend his positions nuked him quickly.

Then I supported Cain.. but the smear campaign conducted against him was too successful..and his explanations about his 13 year ‘relationship’ with this most recent woman was just too much to swallow.

Newt is a sold conservative, his baggage is already out there and could be easily dismissed as old news..and a lot of the myths about his divorce have been debunked.

He is brilliant, quick witted, articulate and would make mincemeat of Obama in any debate.

In short, ladies and gentleman.. it looks like we may have a candidate.... a fired up, solid conservative with ideas and the determination to implement them..to take the fight to Obama and his media drone allies.

BRING IT ON... YOU LIBERAL BASTARDS!

“BRING IT ON... YOU LIBERAL BASTARDS!”

I completely agree. I went through a similar journey, though what turned me off more about Cain was his lack of ability to answer just about ANY question about anything. Even 999 (”youre comparing apples and oranges, “check my analysis on my website”, etc..

I certainly discounted Newt for most of this race. I remember all the crazy stuff he has done in the past but his record is his record. Its very conservative and after listening to Bachmann, Perry & Cain on the issues I really like the fact that Newt can have a logical argument about many issues.
