Gingrich surges into Second in GOP Primaries

[QuantumPion]

Can you provide us an example of these candidates adopting liberal views to placate the media?

The whole reason why Newt is just making a comeback now, after being in the lead initially and then practically being eliminated, was his wishy washy criticism of Paul Ryan's budget earlier this year.

 

[alphatarget1]

He didn't surge to the top, he floated to the top like am ex-gassing turd in the toilet bowl of Republican minds.

LOL that is actually pretty funny.

 

[QuantumPion]

Inevitable.

Romney is the only one that stands any chance whatsoever since he is not intensely unlikeable, fucking batshit crazy, or of questionable mental ability.

I love it how democrats tell republicans who we should pick as our candidate (and apparently many republicans listen to them as their primary source). And of course that candidate is always the most liberal of the bunch, yet liberals will never, ever vote for that republican regardless, all it accomplishes is turning away the conservative base.

It makes about as much sense as us telling you to drop Obama because he is a commie fascist that stands no chance of re-election and nominate someone more moderate and likeable such as Colin Powell. And then you actually do it.

Well of course, because the "most liberal" candidate among a bunch of republicans is the least conservative and hence the most marketable to independents. That said, we aren't telling you guys how to vote. We're just pointing out the obvious. If this was a dem primary and you guys were pointing out that say, a Dennis Kucinich was unelectable, you'd be right.

You don't think there is any crossover voting going either way in any election? Sure YOU wouldn't vote Democratic no matter who was on the ticket, and many Democrats on here wouldn't vote Republican no matter what. But that's not representative of voters as a whole...not to mention the number of people who aren't part of either party.

Nominate anybody you want from the litter of sick pups available- those dogs won't hunt.

They're all ideologically opposed to anything that won't help the rich get richer, which is what's wrong with this country in the first place.

The only one who opposed the pamper the Rich/ screw the rest Ryan budget at all was Gingrich, and he was vilified for it.

No taxes on capital gains or dividends, plus Cut, cut, cut!

Makes the uber-rich all gushy just thinking about it...

Repub opinion thrashing about in futility-

Newt's on top! The real question is if he's nuts enough to energize the whack-o-matic base...

 

[Craig234]

If it weren't offensive, a funny SNL skit would be for Adolf Hitler to get into the Republican race now.

He could say things like 'there are three countries he'd invade immediately, France, England and Russia. No problem remembering all three.'

Iran, Pakistan, Canada.

Yeah Gingrich is lower then a Rattlesnake's belly.

that would still be a major step up from whose in office right now.

You realize that Newt's criticism of the Ryan plan was well within his long held ideas about health care, right? Where did you somehow come up with the idea that he changed his mind to placate the media? Changed his mind to the view he already held? Oh also, Gingrich was never in the lead, about as close as he ever got was 6 points out, which in such a split field is quite a lot. Unless you meant 'the lead for second place', which would be an awfully bizarre time for any candidate to tack towards the center in a primary.

What a weird, paranoid world you live in where Republican primary challengers are enslaved by the liberal media into becoming liberal themselves, while trying to appeal to an electorate that frequently holds bizarre conspiracy theories about the evils of the liberal media. (as you so well evidence)

Don't listen to us then! I beg of you, PLEASE nominate one of those ultra conservative clowns. You realize that there's nothing we would like better than for the Republicans to nominate one of the crazies like Perry, Cain, or Bachmann, right? Hell, go nominate Newt! We will laugh all the way back to the White House.

Being neither Democrat or Republican I have no such motivation. I merely stated the fact that Romney stands the only chance against Obama. The rest of the candidates are a horror show of extremist views, closets full of skeletons, and general stupidity. Can you imagine the debates against Obama with anyone else up for the nomination, it would be like shooting fish in a barrel with a howitzer.

Romney is a younger, non senile version of McCain.

It's easy, you guys pick the next in line. Last time it was McCain. This time it's Romney. :sneaky:

Democratic and Progressive heads would spontaneously explode if the masses elected Gingrich.

Um considering he would probably get .00000001% of woman voters I highly doubt it.

Actually I may vote for Obama out of spite if Romney gets the nomination. D:

If we're going to have a liberal ruining the country, he may as well be a Democrat so at least we don't get the blame for it.

I wonder if liberals were saying the same thing about Reagan back in 1978.

I hope they were, if for no other reason than to convince you that nominating one of these clowns is a good idea.

He can always try putting a woman on the ticket to counteract that effect. :sneaky:

from laughter? probably.

from pity as the other major party has allowed a circus of narrow-minded, uneducated hillbillies hamstring their entire culture--their party--into putting up such disastrous candidates? absolutely.

Anarchist was right about repealing all those damn constitutional amendments!
