It’s the major headline at Drudge:
But the headline suggests it’s a reaction to polling, but instead it was questioning by Frank Luntz about Newt’s mother.
The most poignant moment to me was not the discussion of his mother but at 4:25 when he recounted a story told by a young mother about how...
Reader Hope Change in the Tip Line suggests the following caption for this photo: “That’s right, Mr. President, National Review is trying to elect Mitt Romney.”
I think that’s a good one, although it presumes Reagan would have known who Romney was. Any other suggestions?
And the timing is good as Citizens United (yes,...
In the least shocking news ever, Mitt Romney, who taunted Newt by saying that Newt could not take the heat of negative advertising run by a pro-Romney SuperPAC, refuses to take Newt up on the challenge of a one-on-one debate next week:
“We’ve had many occasions to debate together and we’ll have...
From Dan McLaughlin, who recently endorsed Rick Perry, writing at RedState:
As we all know by now, there’s Good Newt and there’s Bad Newt. If you want the full Good Newt experience, check out this speech he gave to the NRA convention back in April. If you don’t have time for the...
The recent endorsement of Mitt Romney for President by The Washington Examiner has worked to underscore an odd and conflicting point by Romney supporters who are attempting to “make the case for Mitt.”
A common line that has been consistently trumpeted by Romney supporters is that Gingrich’s ties to Freddie Mac when he...
Ann, we get it, you support Mitt and you don’t like Newt. Nothing wrong with that, everyone is entitled to an opinion.
But in the quest to sink the U.S.S. Newt, you are becoming a political kamikaze.
First, you played the birther card on the entire Tea Party movement, claiming that the only reason Romney does not...
Jennifer Rubin at The Washington Post has a post today in which she contrasts Mitt Romney’s non-pandering to the Jewish community with Newt Gingrich’s supposed pandering.
She highlights Jonathan Pollard, an American convicted of spying for Israel, and whether he should be granted clemency. She quotes Romney as saying:
On the topic of...
Thomas Sowell has an interesting column today pushing back against the demonization of Newt. It’s not an endorsement, but it sure sounds like Sowell is not liking all the hate being directed Newt’s way (h/t jeannebodine in the Tip Line):
Did Gingrich ruffle some feathers when he was Speaker of the House? Yes,...
Why do Republican politicians go on Letterman? I know it’s good exposure, but it’s exposure that always comes with a price.
Letterman always makes the Republican look bad and weak. I said it when
Newt Gingrich wants to restore a balance between the branches of government, and address what a lot of people see as an imperial judiciary.
His white paper lays out a variety of mechanisms, most of which are not controversial. One in particular, that Congress should subpoena judges in rare circumstances to explain judicial...
I guess I’m upsetting some people with my vigorous posts regarding Newt.
Robert Stacy McCain says I’ve “hopped aboard the Gingrich bandwagon and [am] savagely lashing Newt’s critics.” Actually, the bandwagon jumped on me, because my endorsement predated Newt’s surge, if only by a few days.
John Sexton of Verum Serum says I’ve been...
This is the video of Michele Bachmann accusing Tea Party members, not just in South Carolina but “all across the country,” of taking money from Gingrich for endorsements, which I referenced in my post Friday:
The Bachmann SC Tea Party Coalition Leaders has issued a statement all but apologizing for the accusation,...
“Bombastic” is Ann Coulter’s favorite new word in attacking Newt Gingrich. (irony noted)
Coulter was on O’Reilly last night lambasting Newt as “bombastic” with no policy accomplishments.
Mark Levin, no supporter of Newt, has come to his defense, much as Andrew McCarthy
As I pointed out the other day, National Review demeaned itself and its many talented writers by going overboard in its attempt to demonize Newt Gingrich, including a cover which should live in conservative infamy.
Newt as crazy outer-space martian is what passes for analysis at what once was, and in many...
You know I have a big problem with Michele Bachmann making statements which are not supported by facts and then repeating them endlessly.
Her campaign is up to much worse in South Carolina, where her local campaign manager has suggested that the Gingrich campaign has paid off Tea Party leaders for support. Politico...
Note: This is the first Guest Post by Bryan Jacoutot, a law student at John Marshall Law School in Atlanta, GA.:
Although the November 9th Republican Presidential Debate in Michigan is now over a month passed, one critical line said by Newt Gingrich is still at...
