It's like riding a tranny into the closet only to discover that nobody is filming the video and nobody wants to film the video.

He's the garbage I took out 15 years ago.

Dude.

Run Newt. DOOO EEEET!!!!

The entire Democratic party is rubbing their hands with glee right now.

Well, considering the cancer that has swept through the Republican party, it's not altogether surprising that a fresh, young political movement would catch his eye.

Makes sense, he's a douchebag. Of course they love him.

Teabagging with Newt.

Sounds....jowly.

Nah, Newt is a fan of the youngin's, not getting his cock gummed.

shivashakti: I'm not saying I'd support the f*cker. But he might actually beat Romney out for the nomination. Which would be odd. I don't think he'd beat Obama, though.

I doubt they're going to run on Morality issues this year and instead will focus on economic and foreign policy issues. No matter who wins, it's going to be tough to beat Obama, but I do think Newt has the best chance at it.

Thanks, subby.

IIR, there's several reports circulating of his fondness for receiving felatio.

Glicky: I like the gummin', but I'm married so not much lately. Maybe if I...

Did the meanings suddenly change recently? I was implying that Newt likes blowjobs from young women, not women old enough they don't have teeth.

whidbey: Wow, Gingrich really is going to be the 45th POTUS.

I guess we'd better start making the necessary preparations.

Sixteen AK-47's and half a ton of cement?

Shadowknight: Nor do I believe they like the man personally, as leaving your cancer stricken wife for your mistress and wracking up an interest free debt at Tiffany's in the tens hundreds of thousands like it ain't no thang in a time when they can't afford school clothes for their kids really must bother them.

Point of order.

Shadowknight: I have this feeling that the support comes not from their liking of positions, which Tea Baggers have long showed themselves ignorant of in all the candidates their field. Nor do I believe they like the man personally, as leaving your cancer stricken wife for your mistress and wracking up an interest free debt at Tiffany's in the tens of thousands like it ain't no thang in a time when they can't afford school clothes for their kids really must bother them.

Wow, considering you're completely unbiased opinion, how could one *not* consider your prognostication into Tea Partiers motivations as being 100% accurate? You do realize that his wife wasn't "cancer stricken" at the time of the hospital visit, the tumor was benign and had already been removed, nor did he leave her, she asked for the divorce, but hey, since when did facts matter eh?

Their support for Newt comes from a couple of things, probably the first and foremost being that they look and see Obama, an inexperienced and divisive president and realize that it's not a very winning combination for anyone who would actually like to accomplish something in Washington. They know that Newt has experience and *has* managed to accomplish Conservative solutions to problems while working with a Democrat president, so the idea that he, as President himself could managed to accomplish Conservative solutions while working with a Democratic Senate isn't that much of a stretch.
He has an agile mind and can think on his feet, and is able to cite not only history but past policy with ease when needed and can communicate it all in a very understandable way, giving him an edge over Obama in debates. His baggage is already out there so he is somewhat inoculated from it, and really, the only baggage he's got is the divorces, after all, he was completely exonerated from all of his ethics charges which demonstrated them to be purely political in nature. He resigned early due to the over politicized nature of Washington at the time, though he had planned on resigning anyway because he had made a pledge to a term limit, so he wasn't "thrown out" by his own party, even though many of them may have been dissatisfied with his leadership, blaming the political mess the GOP found themselves after the impeachment on him, even though, at the time the story first broke he was amicably working with Clinton on some major reforms, so that's pretty much a non issue.
He is offering ideas for solutions that are Conservative in nature, and Tea Partiers understand that not every idea is perfect, nor does it ever make it through the legislative process in tact, but can appreciate the good stepping stones he's offering and the motivation towards positive reforms while maintaining a positive and moderate tone.

He doesn't piss off libs, so much as scare the smart ones, because they know he will force Obama to the top of his game come campaign time, the rest just bought into the BS the left has been pushing and aren't so much pissed as just disgusted because they're ignorant of the truth.

They see Newt as someone who can energize voters, while Romney is very tepid and lacks that enthusiasm needed to win a national election.

That's my take on it anyway, much of which is taken from the head of the Iowa Tea Party.

Ooba Tooba: I really can't believe we are still talking about this guy after living through the '90's. There should be some sort of filter that if someone lies, and is exposed while campaigning, they have one chance to retract their crap while apologizing to the American people. If they spew non factual garbage a second time, poof! campaign deactivated.

Obama never would have been elected under those rules.

Just sayin.

You're going to have to find something equivalent to match Newt prosecuting Clinton for getting a BJ while cheating on his wife if you're going to play the equivalence game with Obama. That's going to be hard, because nothing the President has done has come close to that level of cognitive dissonance.

There's a reason the 57 states joke is still one of the better ones after three years: he isn't a laughingstock of the entire world.

Change the FEMA camps over to Christian Reeducation Camps? And divert SCHIP and WIC funds to orphanage construction? Fk it - just throw it onto the military budget pile
