Breaking News: Newt Gingrich's campaign is about to implode

He himself has said he doesn't think he has a chance.

He actually couldn't stop wars. And guess what, an erosion of power in the government would actually mean that business would have MORE say in what wars we engage in. What would business want? More wars? Or less?

You don't have to take HIS word. Crack a history book.

Here's what I really don't understand . . .

Despite the lengthy list of allegations of wrongdoing and generally reprehensible behavior, there is still a feeling out there that the ex Mrs. Gingrich can actually say something that will make this asshole look worse.

What does that tell you about the general mental state of the US electorate, the quality of people who are clamouring over eachother to lead the US, and the general state of ethics and morality in this country. Seriously . . . after everything that's been conclusively proven, this guy is still considered to be a viable option for candidacy to the point there is actually a debate about airing some more dirty laundry before the SC vote.

Pathetic.

Really really really pathetic.

No wonder many of us truly believe we are screwed with a capital F.

Well, it makes me think it is all a set up like the last election and a bad novel.

Riiiiiight. So you don't care if people are awful people, as long as they enact policies that you think will benefit you. That's pretty much he definition of selfish... can I interest you in Ron Paul; you guys would be a perfect match!

I already responded to this question of yours at length.

Multiple wives and multiple affairs. This 'conservative' candidate is going down. And the fact that Sarah Palin did a non-endorsement endorsement of the guy ... she's given herself a big black eye as well. Newt ... go home.

If it is about the affairs, that's old news, there is juicer stuff out there.

BTW: That video isn't a NewAge video (it's a long and well researched documentary which is one of the best documentaries you'll ever see. Made originally for, but not by, the BBC.

It's also certainly not made by or about Banksters.

This lack of attention to detail may be responsible for your naive faith in someone like Paul.

There's a lot of the same koolaid going around for Paul, esp in these parts, that went around for Obama in 08. Same koolaid, different flavour.

Maybe the Obama administration paid her to come out and mudsling. All they had to do was capitalize on the anger and resentment she must have been harboring all those years.
Not interesting at all. More of the same they did to Hermain Cain. In fact this has been the dirty modus operandi of this administration all along.

I was thinking about this, this morning, how dirty the business of politics is, I could never get elected, good grief, you would have to be a little masochistic to want all your dirty laundry aired for all the world to see, but, could a scoundrel make a good leader, maybe,

Just wait we will get so fed up with the mud slinging we will elect the devil just for spite.

Don't get your hopes up. They are basically bringing all the skeletons in the closet out, simply to check what the negative impact will be should he win the nomination. If he can win the nomination despite the bad publicity, chances are they won't affect him in the elections. It is always better to let all the dirt come out early than risk it coming out when it is too late.

So don't expect any shocking "revelations". It will be the same old dirt, but being discussed in the context of a Presidential election.

Well, Perry just dropped out.

Is this gonna air tonight, God I sure hope it airs soon, please let it air before the SC primary. Any word?

I read that this was just a rumor. He says he's not. Source

Yes the interview is supposed to air on ABC tonight (Thurs the 19th)

Thanks for the heads up, I sure hope this crashes his campaign so that Ron gets a good shot at second Then that way it will be Romney-Paul for sure

reply to post by Stormdancer777


The current rumour is that it'll be on tonight, yes.

reply to post by THE_PROFESSIONAL


It will NEVER be Romney/Paul.

That's a bigger fantasy than Paul winning the nomination outright.
