AND he has done his fair share of backtracking on issues where his stance at the time is now unpopular. but hey, he's a politician.

FL time to cast yer vote . I saw an article this a.m. saying Newt "reinvented" himself... I didn`t read it but I was curious if anyone did and he was claiming he ate his pomposity, sucked up the aduterous truths and created a "I ain`t no felon" campaign?

Looks like its Romney versus Obama.

I do not know if others have called this already but I think a surprise candidate will appear as an independent around August-September to attempt a split of the conservative vote.

Even the penquins don`t like naughty Newt

Newt nipped by zoo penguin, gets Band-Aid

ST. LOUIS (Reuters) - Things have not been going all that well for Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich lately, even at one of his favorite places - the zoo.

Newt was nipped on the finger by a penguin during a private tour of the famous St. Louis zoo on Friday before he spoke to the National Rifle Association convention, zoo officials confirmed on Monday.

NO band aid big enough to heal his campaign.

Ami, if you stayed abreast of the news, you'd know.

Look up "Americans Elect." They're the latest to grab headlines on this front.

Which is why it's strange that you post about politics at all. That's a very limited scope of information.

News says he will finally pull out if he loses the primaries today... if ??

I`d say he gave it his best shot and that shot backfired.

But, Juni, he brought an important body of thought to the fore. I think he is satisfied with that.

A fond farewell to Newt.
I enjoyed the entertainment.
Romney vs Obama. But, is it?
Curious what August/Sept brings around.

Well, Juni, Newt stood up for some important principles. He stood up for a reduced taxes which are essential to a robust economy. More taxation will make the economy worse. That was the lesson of Reagan. Reagan produced a thriving economy by lifting the tax burden. Obama is running us into the ground by increasing the tax burden. For all the people who hate the rich and want to stick it to them, you can't do that economically. You will take everyone down with you. That is what knee jerk Liberals don't see as their vision is not wide enough. Jealousy and envy cloud it. They want to hurt the rich so much that they are wounding themselves in the process.

We pay higher taxes and have a stronger economy than the Yanks?

Not understanding Republican logic.

If you have a product that is in demand (this could also apply to a highly educated and innovative workforce as well as raw resources) it doesn't matter what your taxes are, people will come for it. Just ask Saudi Arabia if taxes will keep the west from buying their oil
