Gingrich Still Has a Chance?

That's the story today...(click title of this post). Gallup poll shows that Newt is gaining a bit of traction. According to Gingrich, he must win Georgia and he is banking on the South and Ohio. Next week may determine whether Gingrich will have made a comeback, or if he will need to bow out of the race.

I really am hoping he gains some momentum. I like Newt a lot more than I do Romney or Santorum. I guess Romney is not so bad but Santorum, while I love his message, is well known for being...corrupt. I just don't know how he is going to stand up against Obama.

Thoughts?

Newt Gets More Support While Obama Loses Support

Looks like Newt is getting 10 million dollars for his campaign. 
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich's faltering campaign is about to get another shot in the arm, CBS News has learned. 
Billionaire casino magnate Sheldon Adelson plans to give another $10 million to the outside group backing the former Georgia lawmaker who is running behind former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, a source close to Adelson told CBS News.
 Obama on the other hand is losing financial backing from a San Francisco donor.
San Francisco philanthropist Susie Tompkins Buell, one of the Democratic Party's most generous benefactors, is keeping her checkbook closed when President Obama holds high-priced California fundraisers this week. 
"I want to look him in the eye and say, 'Thank you so much' " for his work, said Buell, who expresses deep disappointment in the president's leadership on environmental issues, especially climate change. 
With Obama's 2012 re-election campaign in full swing, "I would just love to write my big check ... or have a high-dollar dinner here" on his behalf, she said. "I can't."

So, this is great news for Gingrich. I really hope he gets some momentum and gets back on top. I cannot see myself voting for Romney. He has done many things that are "legal" but quite unethical, and while I like many of the things Santorum has said, he is well known for being a corrupt politician.

Newt is not much better. Let's face it, it's hard to find someone who is not corrupt or has been associated with some sort of scandal but, I like that Newt is not afraid of the press. We need a conservative with some balls. I think a lot of the whole marriage/divorce stuff has been taken out of context. He actually makes efforts in putting forth a conservative agenda and has proven that he is capable of getting things done. With that being said, I like him the best.

Let me know what you think. Comment below.

Romney Wins Florida

Oh, no! I was really counting on Gingrich to win. In short, this sucks. I am not impressed with Gingrich's personal life but he is definitely much more conservative than Romney. At the same time, he is someone that has encouraged Congress to work from the middle.
Mitt Romney crushed Newt Gingrich in the Florida Republican presidential primary Tuesday night, surging from a second-place finish in South Carolina to sweep the winner-take-all contest and reassert his front-runner status.

The victory, in the biggest GOP contest to date, is likely to give the former Massachusetts governor a burst of momentum as he, Gingrich, Rick Santorum and Ron Paul head west to battle in what has become an increasingly negative race.

Newt's Dirt Made Public By Ex-Wife


A story that leaked on Drudge reveals an ABC interview with Newt's ex-wife Marianne will air before Saturday, which is when the South Carolina primary will occur.

Apparently Marianne does not have nice things to say about her ex-hubby Newt. She accuses him of trying to rewrite history in order to make himself look good. I'm not sure why anyone would be shocked by a person trashing their ex but apparently, ABC wants to make this news.

Is Newt Your Man?



The polls are showing Newt Gingrich as a front runner now. What do you think? I actually like Gingrich and with the meltdown from the Cain camp, Newt is someone I feel comfortable standing behind.

Newt Rips Gore

An older video but, pretty funny. I ran across this again tonight so I figured I would post it.

Happy Friday everyone! Hope you all have a great weekend.

Gingrich Talks Impeachment

Gingrich recently did an interview with Newsmax. In this interview he makes some interesting statements that involve the hypocrisy of the media and the democrats. Shocker! I know. 
In an exclusive interview with Newsmax.TV Friday, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said President Barack Obama’s decision not to fully enforce the Defense of Marriage law eventually could lead to a constitutional crisis, as he has directly violated his constitutional duties by arbitrarily suspending a law.
