A 50-50 chance is better than the 100% chance we get with Obama.

Chance of what? Derp?

So that makes Gingrich one of those bureaucratic European socialists he's always taking about right?

Newt, Bubbeleh, you're not going to reach Quantum Political Superposition. That's Mitt's specialty. You're the Douchey One. Stick to that, and then when you drop out, you can then claim it was because you had too many principles. You know, like ethics violations and adultery...

I was going to say that I don't think three dimensional topology was going to cut it. We need to try and understand the movement of this flip-flop through a calabi-yau topology.

It's worse than that. RomneyCare was based on Newt Grincrich's 1994 plan offered as an alternative to HillaryCare.

Only in Republican Base-land is affordable healthcare shameful and evil.

I'm sorry, the correct answer is a career politician.

He was against it, before he was for it. And now he's against it again. Therefore:

2 x Against
1 x For
= Obama wants to destroy America

What do you call a flip flop that flip flops off another candidate's flip flop?

Pandering: The act of expressing one's views in accordance with the likes of a group to which one is attempting to appeal. The term is most notably associated with politics. In pandering, the views one is verbally expressing are merely for the purpose of drawing support up to and including votes and do not necessarily reflect one's personal values.

The disgusting audacity for these heroes to bring forth a sensible bi-partisan atrocity that will destroy America by trying to help all Americans achieve a general state of utterly deplorable good health deserves nothing more than our ire and full support. Denounce this today by sending in your donations to fight this inspiring boondoggle.

I think he is saying Newt and Romney are both liars so there is a good chance they will do things you want because you have no clue what they will do in office.

Not saying it wasn't stupid.

Let me refine that:

Newt and Romney are liars so I am going to project my beliefs onto them in hopes they don't suck as bad as history has shown.

But Newt took millions for his pandering and Romney actually passed laws based on it.

Newt Gingrich is clearly history's greatest monster and, by far, the dirtiest pinko Commie socialist that has ever dirty pinko Commie socialisted a day in their dirty pinko Commie socialist life.

Are you one of the "The mandate is a giveaway to the insurance companies" people (which I agree with), or one of the "There's nothing wrong with the current healthcare system" people (which means you are retarded).

The mandate is a bad solution. But I think it's a first step towards socialized medicine. Which is a GOOD THING.
