Re: Newt Gingrich: CPAC 2011
He got 5% on the straw poll.
Ron Paul was the winner.
Again.

Re: Newt Gingrich: CPAC 2011
Ron Paul has as much chance winning the Republican nomination as I do. He is a nut. He many times wins the straw polls of extremists. I like most of Newt's positions and he is a brilliant man. However he has major character flaws.
I might be willing to overlook Newt's moral issues if he were running for a lessor office and there were no better candiates but for the highest office in the land I do not want a man who cheated on two successive wives to end up with the one he has now (serving the first one with divorce papers while she was in chemo treatment for cancer no less).
The funny thing is I don't think Newt would approve of anybody with his character record being elected to office other than himself. He would be tearing up a Democrat canidate who had done what he has done as unfit to be President.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

He probably would. LOL! Neither of these men will ever be president, but Ron Paul is not a nut. He has worked very hard and now has everyone's eyes, finally, on the Federal Reserve. Good for him!

You and those who think like you are what the Republican party became and is ceasing to be.
Ron Paul and those who think like him are what the Republican party used to be and is becoming again.
His chances and the chances of those like him grow every electoral cycle. The change is coming and nothing can stop it. Those following after Ron Paul are young and are in this thing for the long haul. The Republican party is headed back to it's roots of a Republic form of government.
This is a revolution and revolutions aren't won easily or quickly. They are won with persistence

This is how great leaders are born. They show themselves consistent over time and stand for right when no one else will.
As as was stated by Samuel Adams:
It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people’s minds.

Yes, and thankfully we now have Facebook and Twitter to bypass the "repetition" of MSM hounding and pulling down those that stand for this country.
They are now trying to bring down Michelle Bachmann by a little mistake on history. Drive it, drive it. Don't focus on the President's gaffs.
