Time to turn to Newt?

[Lincoln Republican]

My fellow Republicans, I know this is not going to be easy for many of you, however, we must resign ourselves to the inevitability of a Romney Presidential candidacy.  

Perry can't name three government departments in a row he wants to cut.  How on earth can he be expected, for example, to assimilate a diversity of viewpoints put forward in a meeting of the National Security Council and make the crucial decisions expected of the leader of the free world that could involve the lives of thousands, even millions, of people?

Cain is a serial sex offender and consummate liar, and America does not need a President who is incapable of telling the truth.

Santorum, bless his heart, has withdrawn his candidacy, according to reliable sources.  He seems to have more common sense than most of this lot.

Bachmann, off to a good start, has faltered bacly, is no longer taken seriously, and is viewed mainly now as a right wing crack pot.

Paul, nice man, but his libertarian views will not attract nationwide support, and he is destined to remain in the minor leagues.

Gingrich, brilliant, but he can't even hold his campaign team together, let alone the nation.

Huntsman, will never rise above single digits.

And so I say to Republicans and Americans everywhere, let us march together boldly into the future, let us swallow our pride, let us set aside the animosities and discord that have vexed us in the past, let us embrace the Romney candidacy, I realize some not as enthusiastically as others, and let us, under the dynamic, competent, far sighted Romney leadership, build a new America, a peaceful America, a prosperous America, because Mitt Romney is truly the one prepared and the one capable, to once again restore America's greatness, and to repair the damage done to this nation during the Obama years.

Thank you for your time, and may God bless America.

Care to share with us what these sources are?  Where did you get this information?

In keeping with my policy of full disclosure, I apologize.  I misspoke.  I got Santorum mixed up with someone else.

However, I am confident that Santorum will do the right thing, the inevitable thing, and withdraw from the race in the not too distant future.

1) I'm not going to take advice from someone that seems intent on anointing a candidate now vs. believing a candidate should *earn* their primary win in a few months.

2) Clearly you don't have a clue as to what things have occurred in the Gingrich campaign so why should we take you seriously on why he is disqualified from a reasonable contender.

3) How do you think its a good idea as a Romney supporter to point out why all the other candidates suck instead of pointing out why Romney offers a better alternative?

As much as I like Newt, in many ways, the fact is, he did lose his campaign staff, at one time, and had to rebuild.

Romney's record of positive accomplishment and proven leadership speaks for itself.  Romney is a political giant amongst a field of political midgets.

Romney's record of positive accomplishment

Like Romneycare?

Like turning a $650 million shortfall into a $700 million surplus during his term as Governor of Massachusetts.

Source?

The most reliable source anywhere.  See page 1. 

Now I know there are other interpretations of that statement, however, how could anyone question the validity of anything coming from that particular source?

Actually it looks more like the signs of a guy just caught in a blatant lie who is trying to make up a different one to cover up for the first.

Again how is it that I should even take you seriously?

Well, you are dead wrong, however, say and think as you please.

I could care less.

So you know for a fact that Perry's campaign is folding up shop?

Did you not read the reference I had given as my source?  The initial entry of this thread, page 1, by Keystone Phil, "Perry decided to abandon his campaign tonight," clearly a reference to his disastrous debate performance.  I took this a reference that Perry was withdrawing.

I admit  this has become a misunderstanding.
