It's smart of him to try, though. Some of the soft support can probably be peeled away.

As bad as Newt is, people are going to come to the ballot box come November, and remember how much they don't like Obama. And it will be interesting to see what happens when you have the dilemma of bad choices, if Newt is the nominee.

I do think Gingrich would beat Obama in debates, though I think he'd shoot his own foot somewhere else on the campaign trail. Obama is a good orator at delivering set speeches, but isn't particularly quick on his feet with turning a phrase. And Newt has made a career on that.

All that said, Newt is probably a hundred times worse than Romney in terms of selling you out. Look beyond the ideology and issues for a moment to temperament. I like to think Mitt is a decent, if misguided person. Newt is a rampaging egomaniac. Brilliant, yes, but as liable to do something really terrible as well as something really smart. I've read his books, and really enjoy some of his fiction, but he's too unpredictable for anyone to feel safe.

Not to mention the fact that you simple cannot trust the man. If I believed that he believed half of the things he says, well, he wouldn't be such a terrible alternative. With that said, I must once again highlight the fact that there is simply no way I can ever trust him.

Hoping for Ron Paul supporter votes. Pandering, but nice to have the shout out and recognition.

Newt would stab us all in the back with tough words for the Fed but a super watered down Bernie Sanders style non-audit (at best).

 

[muh_roads]

I just have one question for Gingrich. Who would he want to appoint as chairman of the Federal Reserve?

 

[anaconda]

Smart speech strategy by Newt. He's trying to look like he's a humble "man of the People." LOL trying to distinguish himself from the "elitists of New York and Washington DC." When in fact he is their bought-and-paid-for puppet.

 

[Liberty Shark]

Of course this was likely a political stunt to try win over some supporters, however in my opinion this "shout-out" is a positive development. Who would have thought just a few years ago that a well-known establishment hack would actually be speaking about monetary policy, specifically in regards to Dr. Paul's monetary positions & in a positive light? This is great.

Not if it leads to establishment puppets pretending they're enacting Paul's platform, when they really aren't, thereby discrediting it.

 

[ssjevot]

Remember when Obama made promises he never intended to keep to get people to vote for him? Don't fall for Gingrich's pandering.

 

[Crotale]

He will run rings around Newt faster than Newt divorces his wives.

To be fair, it's quite hard to run rings around Newt. He's not the skinniest.

 

[RockEnds]

Has everyone already forgotten that just recently Gingrich proclaimed he wouldn't vote for Paul in the general? The man never stands for anything other than hate. The only reason he's going anywhere right now, other than the fact that he is somehow perceived as a Southerner despite being born in Pennsylvania, is because he tapped into public hatred of the media. He'll be riding high until his tactic backfires on him, and it will. He has no morals, no values, and no integrity.

im pretty sure newt is worser than romney. maybe, just maybe romney might flipflop from the bad side to the good side???

"Yes, with your help, Callista will be a great first lady (if I don't divorce her first!)"

Isn't she his 3rd lady.

...and leave it to that scumbag to pick a mistress/wife with a name that sounds like a venereal disease.

You've said this twice in the same thread already. I think it's time for Romney supporters to stop dreaming: http://www.opensecrets.org/pres12/contrib.php?id=N00000286&cycle=2012

Gingrich, Romney, and Santorum can pander all they want. McCain didn't get my vote in 2008, and none of these three stooges will get my vote in 2012. We still have a ways to go though, so hopefully Republican voters will do the right thing this year by nominating Ron Paul.

This. CNN: "Gingrich wouldn't vote for Ron Paul"

"When asked if he would be able to vote for Paul if his rival won the 2012 GOP nomination, Gingrich said unequivocally "No."

"I think it's very difficult to see how you would engage in dealing with Ron Paul as a nominee," Gingrich said. "Given the newsletters, which he has not yet disowned. He would have to go a long way to explain himself and I think it would be very difficult to see today, Ron Paul as the Republican nominee."
