This is very true once you scratch the surface of the Newt. Frankly though, Newt is the best thing to happen to the Democratic party in two and a half years. Newt has garnered the tea party supporters and fractured the republican party better than any Democrat could have ever done. Just as in 2008, once the conservatives don't get their man as candidate, many will just stay home on election night in disgust and Obama will get another four years. With Hillary as VP they'll probably get 12 years without a fight.

Irony is that Newt may singlehandedly bring down the republican party for the forseeable future by derailing the conservative tea party to a dead end.

What you people seem to miss is this:
Newt, unlike the others, has been consistently articulating views that resonate with a large majority of the population. Not only in S. Carolina, but across the U.S.

We (conservative Americans, and that means roughly 60% of the voting population — and if you don't believe that, you can look it up) have been aching for someone to stand up to the liberal B.S. that has been permeating much of what is printed, and what is heard on most of the news channels and airwaves for the last several decades.

Finally, we hear someone clearly and forcefully rebut the arguments about what's wrong with this country that we hear from Barack Hussein Obama.

It isn't as much Newt, as it is the message. But if Newt is the only one who can (or is willing to) make the arguments, then Newt is the man!

McCain lost, because he refused to engage Obama on his Marxist beliefs, and Obama's assertions that it is our arrogance that make us the target of terrorism.

John King's first question (considering this is a Presidential debate, not a bid for position of an associate pastor or elder of a church) was not only stupid, it was irrelevant. And therefore it was a complete waste of valuable time.

The liberals that have been moderating most of these debates have asked some of the most inconsequential and duplicitous questions for the purpose of painting the Republican candidates in a way that suits their cause, the re-election of Barack Obama.

When a man like Newt responds to this garbage, as he should, with a fiery retort, I applaud! It's about time.
I stand by what I said. Gingrich turned King's question into an "anti-media" diatribe and fooled those TPers into thinking it was the media's fault that poor Newtie was being criticized. If only they could think critically, they'd realize you "don't kill the messenger". Newt does not respect the sanctity of marriage.

Maybe if democrats had voted better people in to take on Bush, he wouldn't have won.
Something all the baseless Obama bashers should keep in mind.

I can't stand the 'establishment' GOP, but I don't see anything 'baseless' in bashing O'bummer, either...

Your take on this is totally wrong! The media had it coming, and Newt let'em have it! Good for him.

I want more of that. I don't give a damn if it's from Newt or someone else!

But, my God ... we have got to engage these ass holes!!!

We simply MUST go on the OFFENSE!

Be careful ... now you are starting to sound like a conspiracy therorist, just at the point when you had me looking into your arguments.

We already have too many conspiracy theorists, and most of them should be locked up. My mothers husband is one. I love him, but yipes! He is totally looney sometimes.
