Newt will be on CNN with Anderson cooper at 10 pm tonight
Gingrich will win SC. Paul will finish 4th in SC.
sorry guys but this is a Republican primary.
There is no future for the movement within the Republican party.
Does this mean Newt get Perry's 15 million in cash?
Not good. . .
For all the talk of going third party, WHY doesn't anyone realize what that means!
RP gets torn to pieces by the MSM, they get to shout from the rooftops that they were right the whole time.
RP loses any and all attention from the general public outside of the attention that he gets from his already loyal base. Which isn't big enough to elect him. Whether you like it or not RP needs the sheeple to win this thing, and the only way he gets their attention is through the GOP press coverage. to go third party now would put an end to everything you and he have worked for. Don't cut of your nose to spite your face. The only way to overcome the system is to exploit the system.
IF he were to go third party NOW is NOT the time. The time to do it would be August. So wait for August to make this decision and make it carefully, because if you don't do it very strategically it just looks like a third party run to cry foul, we ALL get marginalized then and this whole movement gets set back to PRE-'08 status. Look at the big picture, PLEASE. Please consider this. I am not trying to be the bad guy here, I am not from the "08 race and I know I am new here, but please don't let emotions overwhelm this. Fox and their ilk want to paint you and I as emotional, temperamental and pro-drug anarcho-conspiracy wingnut types and we shouldn't be so quick to give them the ammo to do it.
to quit before the reaction of the Newt scandal has to be the dumbest political move in history.
if he had quit even yesterday it would have been rational, not today
I don't believe that. There is only one major issue that must be overcome with Repubs and that is foreign policy. I was won over. If he was third party there's no chance. If he was Democrat there's no chance because he would only have one issue of support, foreign policy, the exact opposite of GOP in that there are multiple issues of agreement and really only foreign policy that requires more conversation - but he's made inroads there.
