BTW...I wish the primaries was the same day for all states so all the states could be counted without seeing the candidates dropping out after a couple of states votes as though they speak for the rest of the nation.
That (in bold) and the GOP along with the media driving the narrative. Santorum was exactly right on that issue saying that we don't realize how much they do drive the narrative.

My husband didn't even vote in the primary and we won't be voting for Romney come November. I'd rather have a Constitutional fight on our hands with Obama than a possible 8 years with a Rhino. They are more of a danger to Conservatism than Obama is. It's a slow death that allows the Liberals to win on policy.

And, really, this interview with Newt on Joe Scarborough really speaks to the issue - One of the commentators said, "Romney would be doing better if he could articulate on this as well as Newt." Very true!

In the interview Newt talks about "Rubio" putting forth a good immigration solution that Romney will support. It wasn't "Romney's" plan, of course.

I wanted to vote for a leader and not a puppet, but that is what we will be getting again. In another interview Newt does say that Romney may turn out to be a good president. I would have wanted to know that he would be BEFORE I voted.

A couple of points Newt made in the interview - Party Loyalist - I was glad he clarified that he is a "party loyalist", which wouldn't have anything to do with the dishonesty of Mitt's character assassination against him. I would still want an apology from Romney for the distortion. Newt is brilliant and a true patriot. Too bad the GOP worked to force him out.

Second - Newt brought up, in a joking manner, the $10,000 bet (referring back to the debate exchange between Romney and Gov. Perry), underlying the fact that Romney is ONLY the frontrunner because of his money.

I also read an article at Human Events where the writer is talking about on-line support via FB and Twitter where Romney's rivals are not speaking about him or supporting him - Newt, Palin, Santorum, Bachmann, Huntsman, Paul, Rubio. "Time to get truly get behind the nominee." LOL! Not happening here. And he has to put his wife out there to make himself not look so plastic.
