Bad Blood In the GOP? Newt Refuses to Congratulate Mitt On Florida Win /

The bad blood between Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney was boiling last night as Romney claimed his second primary victory in Florida. It is standard protocol in politics for the person who loses the race to call the winner and congratulate them on their victory—it’s a way to keep the game from getting too nasty. During his concession speech, Gingrich refused to concede the race—never mentioning Romney’s victory. Gingrich has vowed to stay in the race, refusing to give Romney and easy win. The Obama campaign couldn’t be happier about Gingrich’s pledge. See, the longer Gingrich stays in the race, the more he bashes Romney, therefore softening him up for the general election. Even though Mitt Romney will more than likely be the nominee, it is amazing to watch his favorability ratings drop with each ad that Gingrich releases. Gingrich’s so called concession speech is below.

Last Night's Republican Debate: The Mitt & Newt Clown Show /


Mitt Romney, left, began the debate Monday with attacks against Newt Gingrich.
Last night at the Florida Republican debate, it was all about Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney.  If you haven’t been following my posts about the Republican primary then shame on you! Now I have to bring you up to speed. Right now, we have four candidates left—all fighting for their party’s nomination for president—Rick Santorum, Ron Paul, Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney. Romney will be the likely nominee, but since this campaign began there have been several candidates to shoot up in the polls and knock Romney off of his front-runner thrown. For the second time, Newt Gingrich has been that man. After his win against Romney in the South Carolina primary, Gingrich has the entire Republican Party biting their nails, hoping he doesn’t win the party’s nomination. Why? Because deep down, Republicans know that Gingrich’s arrogant tone, extreme positions and racial remarks will never win a general election against President Obama. Like all of the ones before, last night’s debate was a clown show—and even though it was missing two of the biggest political clowns in the Republican Party (Michele Bachmann & Rick Perry) it still managed to entertain from beginning to end. Mitt Romney decided to prove to the people that he was tough by ripping into Newt Gingrich—not for his alleged infidelities—but for the lobbying (influencing laws in order to benefit a company) that he did for Freddie Mac. The video below shows some of the toughest blows Romney has thrown throughout the campaign. This is good stuff!

Newt Gingrich Comes Out the Gate Swinging at Wife's Accusations of Infidelity--belittles CNN Moderator /

It’s not often that I agree with Republicans, but on this issue I’m torn—last night during the South Carolina Republican debate, CNN chose to open the debate with a question to Newt Gingrich about the allegations his wife had made about him requesting an open-style marriage, where Gingrich would be free to smash whomever he wanted. Well, Gingrich wasn’t going to have it—he snapped back at the moderator, John King:

Now, I agree that it was inappropriate to open the debate with such a tabloid question, however I do believe that CNN had every right to ask it. C’mon, it is a part of the vetting session that every presidential candidate has to go through—furthermore, Newt Gingrich had the complete opposite to say when he spearheaded the campaign to impeach President Clinton for his extramarital affairs when he was speaker of the House. What was deplorable was the way Gingrich decided he was going belittle John King for simply doing his job—to the point that even King felt uncomfortable. And the audience was like the twilight zone—giving standing ovations to every arrogant statement that came out of Newt Gingrich’s mouth. This was just a highlight from last night’s debate, but the entire thing was a clown show, don’t worry. Here’s where the race stands:

Presidential Hopeful Newt Gingrich Sits Down With CNN For A Somewhat Decent Interview /

On yesterday, famed CNN journalist Wolf Blitzer sat down with presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich to talk about his chances of winning the Republican nomination. Blitzer forced Gingrich’s hand on questions about his speakership in the U.S. House of Representatives and why his own party describes him as “erratic,” “undisciplined,” and a “train wreck.” For Newt's standards, this was a pretty decent interview. You be the judge!
