We are talking about Obama and Newt. Newt will tare him to pieces in Lincoln/Douglass style debates. Obama knows this and would never do it if Newt gets the nomination.

You need to break away from the carefully selected, edited soundbites from your Conservative rags and start thinking for yourself. Just because someone like Rush Limbaugh or Glen Beck grabs the back of your head and sticks something in your mouth doesn't mean you have to swallow.

Newt Gingrich couldn't win election as a dogcatcher in a no-dog town. He has already lost his so-called lead because he did the one thing that always spoils his chances, he opened his mouth and proved he is about as personally likable as a baby-rapist in general pop. Only the fake human-cardboard cutout known as Mitt made Newt seem attractive.

(Of course, Newt was only running so he could afford to buy trinkets for his gold-digging adulteress and the rubes (Republican voters) have swallowed enough of his crap so he can bankroll a tidy profit on this whole deal. Look for Sarah to make some waves in the coming months 'cause she has a taste for easy-money now.)

Why would a no dog town be interested in hiring a dog catcher?

Newt Gingrich has failed to qualify for the primary ballot in his home state.

Newt is just a pure politician. He could not give a rats ass about the lower and middle classes or the military. A good example: About 5 years ago the Secretary of the Air Force, I forget the general's name, went up before the appropriations committee and testified that the V-22 Osprey was a poorly designed aircraft that had an inordinate number of accidents and deaths for US servicemen and that the program was too cost prohibitive. This General went out on a limb and risked his career but it was that important to him to scrap the V22 Osprey program.

Newt was instrumental in getting the committee to not scrap the program and to continue funding for it. Why you might ask? Because all of the defense contractors working on that contract, like McDonnell Douglas and Lockheed Martin, were located in Newt's home state of Georgia. He couldn't care less about the troops dying in these V22s. In return, of course, he was promised a 6 figure a year salary as a "consultant" for those same defense contractors after he retires from government. Between that and him receiving monies from Freddie Mac, its all about using your position to make the $$ for you or your district....with him as president I could not imagine things getting any better. I say vote ALL incumbents out of office.

The Osprey is a fantastic aircraft. It is not poorly designed. However as with all VTOL airplanes, it is complex and does have many accidents. The Harrier is the same way, but the Marines love these types of aircraft anyway.
