MAXIMUM GOP BUTTHURT!

I so love 2012 already.

did anyone really expect anything else?

Gingrich takes stuff super personal, you could never have a guy like that as president.

Mitt Rmoney: "I have no view."

OH GOD, SKYNET HAS BECOME SELF-AWARE!!

Whoops. Derp. I retract.

// but doesn't Gingrich look fat?
// and sound like an arrogant 4th-grader?

Is he going to unleash the ultimate weapon?

Headso: Gingrich takes stuff super personal, you could never have a guy like that as president.

Or Santorum.

"But mom.....! They called me a frothy mixture of feces, lube and semen! Me want to sue Google!"

This is going to be fun. I feel sorry for Romney's black children, though.

Can't you see this is the last act of a desperate man?

the former House speaker said Mitt Romney's refusal to disavow attack ads produced by a super PAC sponsoring his candidacy left him with no choice but to go negative.

So he is saying there are no absolute standards behavior, rather they are based on circumstance.

Nice moral relativism, Newt.

I now know what a trainwreck looks like by watching Gingrich's campaign.

A slow, fat trainwreck.

If you have not yet, go check out "When Mitt Romney came to town." MoveOn & Michael Moore would be proud of the job Gingrich's "conservative" allies did there.

Santorum just like like the kind of guy you could walk all over a pudgy faced dweeb, not a good quality either.

Wins thread.

I'm just curious to know exactly who Gingrich is going to blame when he loses in South Carolina. My guess is that he'll blame "evil liberal media" for not taking his schtick seriously and/or giving Romney a "free ride."

Tyrone Slothrop: Can't you see this is the last act of a desperate man?

You'd do it for Randolph Scott...

I love this fat load. He makes 2012 extra-hilarious.

Poor Newt, everyone's so mean to him for no reason whatsoever.

DeltaPunch: So how can a pro-Ginrich superPAC suddenly start airing vicious commercials against Romney without making it painfully obvious that there must have been some coordination between between Ginrich and the superPAC?

It doesn't take a conspiracy for a PAC to figure out that attacking the front runner might help their guy.

DeltaPunch: So how can a pro-Ginrich superPAC suddenly start airing vicious commercials against Romney without making it painfully obvious that there must have been some coordination between between Ginrich and the superPAC?

Shhhh. Hush, now. You know there is no coordination. Stop making things up.

pootsie: "When Mitt Romney came to town."

Don't hate the player, hate the game. Gingrich attacking someone for being successful in the Hobbesian form of capitalism he has relentlessly promoted during his career is ridiculous. Romney is a a tool, but Gingrich is disingenuous at best, a prevaricating shill at worst.

Dr Dreidel: but doesn't Gingrich look fat?

Some other Farker called it on a previous thread:



/Hot.

Tyrone Slothrop: Can't you see this is the last act of a desperate man?

We don't care if it's the first act of Henry V, we're leaving.

Speaking of SuperPACs, I've got my fingers crossed the Colbert is going to unleash his SuperPAC on the unsuspecting people of South Carolina. It could be epic. Can't wait to see what he announces tonight.

He's willing to blow up the party if he can't have the nomination. He's a petulant, spoiled child whose economic policy is now to the left of the entire Democratic machine. I'm going to love watching him tear the GOP down around him since he's one of the lead architects of their politics of anger and destruction.

Gingrich: South Carolina will be 'Armageddon' of attacks

I didn't realize he was into shoving gerbils up his ass.

theorellior: Dr Dreidel: // but doesn't Gingrich look fat?

I think he looks tired.

Don't you think he looks tired.

/Allons-y!
//Come along Ace, we have another regime to topple.

That would be the RichardGereMageddon

DERP thread!!1

I love these.

The conservative alternatives', Gingrich and Perry, going after Romney on the issue of 'Vulture Capitalism' (love that) is gift-wrapped for the Obama campaign.

You now have two Tea Party candidates taking up an OWS cause and the establishment candidate defending corporate raiding from the "center". We're through the looking glass.

He's not, he's going to get a group of oil drillers to play aerosmith songs before all his appearances.

DeltaPunch: Glicky: Don't hate the player, hate the game.

Oh I hate the game. And these types of attacks against Romney from the left are perfect. When attacking from the left, Romney can't defend himself without necessarily giving fuel for Obama to use in the general.

The stupid, it burns.

Newt Gingrich is the left?

What's that, the Citizens United ruling having unintended consequences and turning on it's masters, attacking them first? Unpossible!!!!

Oh, come on now. I think Newt's a human puddle of slime, but the guy's just giving back what he got. Romney had his superPACs run endless anti-Gingrich commercials in Iowa, pointing out that Newt Gingrich was, well, Newt Gingrich. This basically destroyed his candidacy.

Shouldn't Gingrich be able to run ads pointing out that Romney is Mitt Romney? Just because the GOP elite has settled on the human political weathervane doesn't mean he should get a free ride.

/Besides, the lulz are awesome.

You don't have to be on the left to attack from the left...

♪ Randolph Scott! ♪

Whatever happened to him?

ps69: He's willing to blow up the party if he can't have the nomination.

To be fair, since Romney literally is all of the things Gingrich is accusing him of, this line of attack was more or less inevitable. Probably best to try to get it out of the way quickly, which might be the plan here, assuming there is an overall plan for the GOP to actually try for the seat (something I honestly kind of doubt, actually).

the ad featuring Romney's dog was was hilarious. Best primary season ever.

/hell hath no fury like a big fat baby scorned.
