Newt floats possibility of anti-Romney alliance with Santorum

Gingrich for president. The lamestream media is trashing Newt for "historical" baggage. All politicians have baggage if we dig deep enough, but the lamestream/left socialists won't expose democrats, they love the big zero/Obama. Newt has made his mark with his "Contract with America," a contract he fulfilled that no other politician can match.

It's the baggage, grimjessse, it's the baggage.

Newt is right!

"Governor Romney was first an independent, then repudiated Reagan-Bush, then voted for Paul Tsongas, the most liberal candidate in the '92 campaign, then ran to the left of Teddy Kennedy in 1994, then became a moderate to run for governor in 2002, and then with Romneycare, for example, that included state-funded abortions and specifically designating Planned Parenthood as a part of Romneycare, appointed liberal judges in order to placate Democrats and raised taxes on businesses, which I think is a job-killing approach," Gingrich said. "The contrast will be very wide and that will be a key part of what we describe going forward. I suspect it's going to be a very lively campaign."

This sounds incredibly underhanded and none involved will get my vote. I don't like Romney but Newt really scares me. He's evil I tells you.

I have utter contempt for this hypocrite. He goes on about Reagan's 11th commandment and then launches personal attacks against Romney and Paul. Now he is on this personal vendetta, having little concern for the people or actually running to improve the country.

It is a two person race, Santorum has little money and no ground game along with not making the ballet in a few states.

Scoop, I thought you were a fair person but where is the video of Ron Paul's speech last night. He came in third, you know.

Romney would be destroyed in the general.

Romney's track record is nothing to run on.

All the media has to do is provide the details of his horrible economic track record in Massachusetts (tax & fee increases, 47th in the nation in job creation), then report provocative stories on the Mormon "cult" with racism, polygamy and Warren Jeffs all being mentioned.

The evangelical base will not support Romney in the numbers needed to win the general.

In that photo Newt looks like he has had a face lift.

Campaigning seems to agree with him….Looks like Newt is ready for a fight.

OMG! I just read something the made me throw-up. On January 2nd 2012 The Independence Hall Tea Party in Philadelphia PA endorsed Mitt Romney for President.

I believe that this Tea Party affiliate's constitution is in dire need of a cleansing to restore their movement's intended purpose.

How about "Constitutional restoration?"

Both Bachmann and Newt have been gracious and kept their dignity and poise throughout all this campaign and the debates, when we've seen Santorum and Romney lose theirs.

She didn't. She pointed out Romney's and Newt's similarity to Obama in every debate.

She's the thinking man's Sarah Palin. The books were to help spread her message. I think you're projecting and asserting motives on her that she does not have. Perhaps your own cynicism?

OBAMA is a dirty politics fighter...and he may have yet another FAIL SAFE STRATEGY to split the vote and keep him in power:

Americans Elect.

This organization has already gotten BIG money from secret donors, are already registered in every state and there are questions about legality.

I really don't think Bachmann has VP aspirations. She was in it because of convictions, not ambitions.

Santorum has his own flaws. He is willing to compromise on abortion as he stated on television this past week. There are other concerns about his conservative convictions and voting record which will come out as the hours and days pass.

One big misstep - Santorum used the word black in regard to entitlements on video. This will be played up relentlessly by Obama's media machine.

Newt hit the nail on the head. I was thinking the same thing last night when looking at the final numbers. Whomever Romney goes up against in the end, out of Santorum, Perry, or Bachmann, he will lose.

Watching Romney and hearing his talking points he is a well trained, political clone. How can anyone consider Romney a conservative is beyond me.

Scoop, I love you but Gingrich is a con man. If Newt wanted to "help" Sanmtorum he would drop out of the race and endorsed Santorum throwing all his support behind Santorum. Newt got 14 % in Iowa. If Newt had done this before Iowa Santorum would have been the runaway winner. "We are both rebels??" The man who had an office on "K" street and took 1.5 million from FredieMac?? This man is the quintessential Washington Insider!!!

Let me repeat: Newt is a con man.

If you think I'm wrong, sit right down and write Newt/Santorum a big fat check.

It's already gotten nasty. Why is that a downside unless your using lies. If you want to take Romney down all you have to do is use his own words. He's never been a conservative in values or governing. It shouldn't be that hard, just tell the truth. If telling the truth is nasty I want all the nastiness we can muster against Obama.

I certainly hope they do take out Romney, he is who Obama wants to run against because there would be no real contrast between him and Obama. Romney is timid against his real opponent who should be Obama and vicious against fellow Conservatives using his PAC. To me that shows his real feelings of contempt for Conservatism and I don't believe he has the vision to do what is necessary to make the real change that is needed. Romney is a spineless jellyfish who lets others do his dirty work. He would not even call Obama out on his Socialist policies. If he thinks all Obama is is a traditional liberal democrat them we are in serious trouble, it is McCain all over again. Say what you will about Newt, he sees how huge a course correction we need in this country. And he is the last Conservative since Reagan that I actually was happy with how they governed. Romney and the Establishment will sell us out so fast it will doom this country.
