Gingrich to Romney: The Only Reason You Didn‘t Become a Career Politician Is Because You Lost to Ted Kennedy in ’94

Saturday night’s GOP presidential debate in Iowa was certainly animated, and got particular feisty when the campaign’s two frontrunners went at each other. Within the first twenty minutes of the two hour debate former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney and former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich were exchanging blows.
After being asked by ABC moderator George Stephanopoulos about Romney’s specific disagreements from Gingrich that make him more conservative, Romney took a moment before presenting his opposition to the former Speaker’s “idea to have a lunar colony that would mine minerals from the moon,” statements that some have said look to knock down child labor laws, and views on the capital gains tax that the former Massachusetts governor disagrees with.
“I spent my life in the private sector,” Romney said. “I understand how the economy works. I believe for Americans to say goodbye to President Obama and elect a Republican; they need to have confidence the person they’re electing knows how to make this economy work again and create jobs for the American middle class.”
Shrewd as ever, Gingrich responded “Let’s be candid, the only reason you didn’t become a career politician is you lost to Teddy Kennedy in 1994.”
Following the cutting observation, Gingrich defended his support of the space program and providing early work opportunities for children in poverty, and said he was “astonished” that a businessman of Romney’s stature disagreed with his stance on the capital gains tax.
Romney later responded to the Ted Kennedy line: “with regards to the idea that if I’d beaten Ted Kennedy, I could’ve been a career politician, that’s probably true. If I would’ve been able to get in the NFL liked I hope when I was a kid, why, I woulda been a football star all my life too.
“I spent my life in the private sector,” said Romney following applause and laughter. “Losing to Teddy Kennedy was probably the best thing I could have done for preparing me for the job I’m seeking, because it put me back in the private sector. I worked in the private sector, I learned lessons that are desperately needed in Washington.”

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 6:05amHere’s the problem(s) – candidate by candidate.
(Using the criteria of the “typical US voter” – as deep as a mud puddle in thought – and 47% of them are on the Obama dole). Think about this as you go down the list.
1. Santorum. Unelectable. OUT of touch. Too “faithy” for the dumbed down masses.
2. Bachmann: Too churchy. Too whacked out. Too whiny. “I don‘t like her as she’s against gays”…(again….think like a trailer dweller, who has an “Uncle Steve, who is light in his boots…but we love him!”)
3. Rick Perry. Too “Bushy” (Hey…he sounds like Bush……bleeech!)
4. Newt Gingrich. He looks sinister. Scary. Talks above me. “What did he say????”….and his bird-looking wife can use her hair as a helmet (an aside..she IS butt-ugly – plus the name….Callista….Oi!)
5. Ron Paul. Too old. Squeaky voice. Too bald. His son has a poodle sleeping on his punkin head.
6. Mitthew Romney. Looked too “Tasered”. Too “canned”. Too rich. “He ain’t one of us”.
7. Jon Huntsman. Who?
THAT is the way the masses think. Sorry to say. AND…to THEM….Oblamer seems “Presidential”…..
PRAY that Obummer has a massive stroke…..

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 7:01amThat’s pretty good. But I keep hearing that Romney “looks presidential” from the media, as if that should be the only requirement. Heck, it was for Obama. Newt offends the less intelligent because they can’t follow him, and they THINK he‘s rubbing his intelligence in everyone’s faces. But, he knows history, and knows that anyone who doesn’t know history is doomed to repeat it. I’m a breast cancer survivor (stage 4, which means I WILL eventually get it again) and IF Newt was having problems with his wife before her cancer, I can tell you this: I would rather my husband leave me than stay with me only because I got cancer. Staying would have put even more stress on her with a bad marriage and stress slows your recovery.

Good analysis on image the media is painting each by. For now, they prop Gingrich & Romney up (they will “Cain” Gingrich, & Romney will be portrayed as the same as Obama in the general – for now both are useful). The have to marginalize/character kill (ala Cain) the others now – lest you get an unpredictable/wildhorse (Paul, Santorum, Bachman) in the general, and run the risk of having the marxist train derailed. Even if Gingrich (a serial philanderer, inside trading, pathologically lying, global warming, beltway pol)/Romney (a double-talking socialist) were to win the WH, in the end, they are just more of the same (maybe slow the train – but it will still go off the same cliff).
Yes, we do need to be praying to the Living God, to forgive us for our individual sins, our national sins (removing Jesus Christ/Word of God from society, for abortion, rampant sexual immorality, electing wicked leaders), & perhaps maybe He’ll turn from His coming judgment of this nation.
2 Chronicles 7:14: if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn. – Proverbs 29:2

Newt’s actions belie his words. He has a historical pattern of saying one thing & doing another (e.g. his ties to fannie/freddie, his Global Warming spots, multiple affairs, etc, etc.). He cannot be trusted. He knows exactly what to say – what conservatives/TEA partiers/Christians, etc want to hear, – but he’s a serpent, don’t be fooled.

Or did you just block off after seeing him on the same screen as her?
The Ad was made in early 2008 which was before anyone new about the scam the “scientist ” were running. He countered AL Gores testimony in congress, if anything he lobbied against the cap and trade bill.
As he had put it we can be part of the conversation or we can be drowned out by the liberal medial and progressive political maneuverings. I don’t know about you but I rather take part in the debate than be left out.
You speak of actions and he has taken action to fight against Obama care, he was leading the house that stopped Hillary care, welfare reform, Medicare reform, balance government budgets four times that left the country with a positive balance that could have been used to pay down the debt.
Regardless he cannot pass any law that is not presented to him which is why we must fight to regain the senate and build on the gains in the house.
Do you really believe he would veto a conservative reform bill?

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 1:34pmI’ve been looking at the Gallup daily polls and the RCP average nationally. I think Gingrich has peaked. He was 37% on the 6th and now down to 33% today. He’s on the downside of the curve now. This trend should put him in the high 20′s by the end of next week. Flavor of the week, gone just like the rest.
It’s time to look at Ron Paul and Mitt Romney for the Presidency. They’re the only 2 standing. Both can defeat Obama, so say national polls.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 7:01pmRon Paul has some good ideas and I hope several are taken to heart. However his foreign policy is the last thing we need. Of what is left even with all of his baggage Newt has the best record of accomplishments and working with members of the other party to get things done for this country. We have go to get Obama and at least 13 Democratic Senators of the 26 up for re-election out of office and hold the House. That has to be the goal of all republicans. We cannot go with a third party because that will mean Obama wins again. I am not a Newt fan…I prefered Herman Cain but this is what is best for the country.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 3:23amWhy is it that we forget history. Why is it that we let the media choose our candidate? What we forget about Massachusetts is that Romney turned around the economy there by over $5 billion dollars ($3 billion deficit to a $2 billion rainy day fund). He did this without raising any taxes and fighting to lower taxes every year. Yes he did make people, who were asking for state services, to pay their own way instead of the tax-payers paying for them, these are called fees (payment for services rendered by the govt to individuals, should not be subsidized by taxpayer funding), and these were only done after spending was cut by each department. They forget that Romney dissolved two whole state agencies and shrunk many more, laying off hundreds of govt workers, which cut hundreds of millions. Also turned around the Olympics and then returned to Bain Capitol, the company he stated, to fix it because it turn for the worse after he left. He turned it around and made it thrive once more, all for a salary of $1.
The Tea Party, which I belong to, started one group in Alaska and one in NY, is all about shrinking govt overreach, cutting spending, cutting taxes, and getting the govt out of our lives, Romney did this many times over, more than any other candidate. And if you remember, Romney’s health care plan was all about deregulating the insurance industry, making it easier on the people to buy, cutting the $1.3 billion paid to free loaders. This is why Romney is so needed right now!

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 2:34amListen to yourselves sometimes. First you complain the person doesn’t have enough political experience to become President, then you turn around and say a person has too much experience, so which is it?
Newt was in when things worked, he mentions them all the time, and when he wasn’t in, well, thing went bad. Seems his experience was a good thing, his private sector time was conservative organizational work groups and institution work, along with his consulting business (whatever it is), so even though he was in the know (as any good retired military person is [I know]), he wasn’t responsible for the bad times, just personal comments, of which reflection is, he pretty much had it right more times than not.
He may be bloviating at times, but truth of the matter is, isn’t that what we are missing right now???

Paul supporters will never talk about Paul‘s connection to Lew Rockwell as they know it will be devestating to Paul’s advancing forward in the nomination process if it’s widely known and researched. Anyone who supports Ron Paul knowing his long time personal and political relationship with Rockwell and STILL supports Paul IMO deserves to be marginalized and mocked. Which I like to do to them often. Paul supporters right after Obama supporters are the most disingenous of human beings walking the planet and should be treated as mere clowns and court jesters which they excel at.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 1:49amRomney in the polls is still the front runner in the independents category. Gingrich is in the Republican Party, because they are still learning about him. And against Obama, Romney is the front runner and it is all because of his conservative history that is in a reply to the post below, the long one that states his history.
And about RomneyCare, people forget that it was mandating potential freeloaders to buy private insurance not government insurance, like ObamaCare. It was to deregulate the insurance industry and to get people covered. It is about States rights, which we have no say in because we do not live in Massachusetts and 63% of them support it. Sadly Romney’s original mandate was not held, which was libertarian in nature: “Buy insurance or pay your own bill.’ Getting the govt out of the business, that is Ron Paul’s stance and according to Heritage, before the bill was even passed, was the original intent. Remember that the Dems made huge changes and Romney vetoed 7 whole sections of the bill, just to have the legislature override his veto. Even those parts that hurt businesses which Romney didn’t want to do.
THIS IS WHY THE TEA PARTY ARE STARTING TO SUPPORT ROMNEY (The Tea Party Caucus is supporting him more than any other candidate) , THEY ARE WISING UP ABOUT GINGRICH.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 2:14amOnce again, the truth, had not the result been told, would be a true statement. Since Romney did lose to Kennedy he was not a politician over the past 17 years. It‘s kind of one of those facts that is one reason he probably isn’t more electable than the other candidates and why his numbers remain a constant flat 20ish percent. It‘s not that Romney doesn’t try, he just can’t come through in a pinch.
Believe it or not, this is the kind of thinking that makes Newt actually appealing. Each time a Liberal or Progressive turns around and lies about something, Newt will point out the truth to clear the issue up once and for all. Pick a topic, whether it is global warming, EPA rules and regulations, Palestinians wannabes, or the payroll tax cuts, I am sure he can explain what the results of doing one thing over another will result in.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 1:41amI disagree completely that you hate Mormon‘s if you don’t vote for Romney, some may, but that is not the reason for not voting for Romney, its because of, and I say this respectfully, ignorance. They forget that in Massachusetts, Romney turned around the economy there by over $5 billion dollars ($3 billion deficit to a $2 billion rainy day fund). He did this without raising any taxes and fighting to lower taxes every year. Yes he did make people asking for the state for services to pay their own way instead of the tax-payers paying for them, these are called fees, and these were only done after spending was cut in each department. They forget that Romney dissolved two whole state agencies and shrunk many more, laying off hundreds of govt workers. He also turned around the Olympics and then returned to Bain Capitol, the company he stated to fix it because it turn for the worse after he left. He turned it around and made it thrive once more, all for a salary of $1.
The Tea Party, which I belong to, started one group in Alaska and one in NY, is all about shrinking govt overreach, cutting spending, cutting taxes, and getting the govt out of our lives, Romney did this many times over, more than any other candidate. And if you remember, Romney;s health care plan was all out deregulating the insurance industry and making it easier on the people, and cutting the $1.3 billion paid to free loaders. This is why Romney is so needed for our economy.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 2:26amIt takes two to make a marriage work. And it has absolutely nothing to do with being a Mormon, it has to do with the fact that after watching politicians for the past 20 years or so, I saw President Obama speak at his acceptance speech for senator, and after listening to him for five minutes, I walked to the kitchen to get another cup of coffee and said to myself, OK, I liked half the speech and I kind of disagreed with half but what did he say. what was he representing? At that point, without knowing anything else, I knew he was just hot air.
You have to ask yourself, do you disown your friends and family which have had a divorce? Would that disqualify a person from being a good person, or in this case, not only run the country better than it has been over the past three years, but actually bring us back? Newt has been in the position over the past 25 years during the better times over the past 25 years, and not there during the bad parts of the last 25 years. I can see a whole lot better time with Newt over President Obama, and on top of that I think Barry is afraid of him because Newt will call him on his attacks, Mitt won’t know how to, not in his DNA.

This is why we were in the position we were to rebuild almost all of Europe after the war was over. Which in turn lead to Europe becoming dependent on the united state for protection, so they used their money to fund giant and expensive positive rights for it’s people which is why they are in the mess they are in.

While I agree with Paul’s financial vision and position on the Fed, I even agree with recalling many of our bases but not all as he does. The world is not the world he would like it to be or believes it is. No matter what we do Islamist will try to convert or kill us, it’s written into their faith and nothing we say or do will change that. Paul does not understand that or refuses to believe it.
Do you really believe that Newt would veto any conservative Bill that came before him?
What we must concentrate on is expanding the gains in the House and taking control of the Senate.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 5:33amOk big boy. You were seriously asking me if my name was a liberal new twist in language? Academically, you were serious because you are so classy you don’t make idiotic or even dare I say, classless, jokes – ever. Further you have no clue what an epithet is or a cognomen. Yes. I see this is the case now and you are enjoying identifying what you consider is liberal and it‘s edifying when you pinpoint those rascally little liberals isn’t it!
Wait wait wait, you weren’t being snide with me because I commented badly about your preferred candidate were you? Call the supporter of the candidate standing against your candidate a liberal “that’ll show him!”. Take a shower, goodness gracious me, like one of those stinking OWS liberals.
You‘re one of the most banal folk I’ve run into on the blaze. Next time, don‘t start making fun of someone when you simply don’t like what they commented about, think up something better than calling them a liberal. Have you seen me call you a neo-con loving stinky douche? No. do I tell you that you should shower and stop backing your favorite pretenda-republican? No. But, I will tell a your mom joke when I see someone post something as stupid as you did about a nickname I thought up. Cuz “See, look I can do it too!”
Oh please, oh please ask me if I’d jump off the bridge if my friend Miami jumped first.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 7:52amInteresting use of a thesaurus, I don’t think the those words mean what you think they mean unless Conservatarian is actually your given name If so I can understand your mommy issues but truly you should just let it go. You can change your name legally once you turn 18.
You just seem to be picking fights with people and making nonsensical statements that are not based in reality or fact but you seem to repeat what self indulgent talking heads keep regurgitating moronic talking points.
You almost seem like one of those people who defend their cult flowing trying to rationalize the tin foil hat

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 11:07am> CONSERVATARIAN. Anyone who supports Ron Paul is a Qausi-Conservative at best, Thrifty-Liberal at worst. A Libertarian (Libertine like Bill Maher) is not a Conservative and definately not a Republican (Ron Paul carpet bag’gng into the GOP). You might want to spin it thata’ way, but the fact is that Ron Paul and Ron Paul supporters (no matter what moniker they come up with) are 1/4 Conservative- 3/4 Liberal progressive. The economy is the only place Paul talks like a Conservative… somewhat (when he isn’t sounding like an Anarcho-Capitalist), but the rest of his platform is leftist and Liberal Progressive.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 1:55pmSee?! Look even YepImaNeoCon knows how to actually try to shoot down someone’s candidate with whys and what fors. He doesn‘t just stick to the point finger and say ’liberal’. Go ahead and pray for me, we all can use more of that. And yet again, you’re being so literal: an epithet can be a nickname, cognomens ditto and if you’re only looking at Ancient Roman history, where they constantly turned the foregoing into legal names, uh ya, you‘d be correct I’d have to change my actual name to Conservatarian. Do you think they had internet back then where people thought up epithets to use as screen names for an internet magazine – do you think they had to change their names legally to post? Strange questions come from improper assumptions,.
YepImaNeoCon – why does Ron’s insistence on having only Congress declaring war not conservative? To have the constitution followed in all matters domestic but when it comes to foreign policy you drop the constitution and say he’s liberal? Ally with none and trade with all so conservative it’s founding father style. That Iran is not nearly the magnitude of a threat that Soviet Russia was, super liberal! Why is letting Israel have its sovereignty not conservative? Why is telling Israel they can fight for the borders they want; they can control their own foreign policy; they can punish those who attack them as they see fit all a liberal stance now? Nice try YepImaNeoCon, go play with Kaydee and sing war songs k? :)

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 2:38pmTruth is YepImaNeocon I‘ve seen other fellow Paul supporters put you in your place multiple times and I’ve done it myself. Go ahead, do the comeback… there, you did it. I’ve seen all your BS about Ron Paul, we all have, you don’t shut up ever about it. It always takes your usual format: assertion = truth. Sorry, don’t work that way sugarplum. You can’t substantiate one of your claims how Ron Paul ACTUALLY is not conservative without myself or other Paul supporters drilling you on your miss-use of comments, misunderstanding of what he said and many many many other little tricks of the neo-con trade. Kudos for actually bringing up Anarcho-Capitalism. Tell me all the benefits and drawbacks of that system over our current Fasci-Capitalism. Do tell me why you’re such a knob-slobber on the Keynesian Economics – you do realize Lord Keynes renounced his own economics in old age right? Soon enough you’ll come over to the Austrian Economist camp, oh ya, we‘re so liberal over here we wouldn’t allow the government to touch the market. Course your idea of conservatism is… who’s your candidate? Doesn’t matter, that candidate would allow government tampering with the market if it’s Romney, Perry (though Perry is quickly becoming a Paulbot), Gingrich, Santorum and if it’s Bachman well, for the patriot act are ya then? Good little laddy. And if you like Huntsman, well right on, though he has less of a shot than Paul by far.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 12:38amBachmann hit it right on the head: Newt Romney. There’s no real difference between the two. They’re both advocates for big government. Like Ron Paul said, do we really want to go through the campaign having a candidate who has to explain whether he’s for or against the individual health insurance mandate? We have a lot better choices in this race than Newt Romney. Ron Paul, Rick Santorum, Michele Bachmann…all clearly against government-run health care. Any of them would be better than the Newt Romney circus.
What really separates Ron Paul from Michele Bachmann to me is the Patriot Act. She’s for it, he’s against it. The Patriot Act is a trampling of the 4th and 5th amendments of the constitution. Bachmann is willing to steal our liberty for the promise of keeping us safe. Our Founders warned against that. I’ll trust the Founders on this one. With all of the government power seized with the Patriot Act, who will protect us from the government when it becomes criminal? Some, like myself, would say our government is already criminal. And we want to trade our constitutional rights so our criminal government can protect us? That’s a joke. Next thing you know they’ll be scooping Tea Partiers off the street and hauling us to Gitmo without even seeing a judge because, after all, VP Biden said we’re “terrorists”. Careful about trampling others‘ rights because in doing so you’re jeopardizing your own.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 12:59am@Miami: Newt’s problem is that he is not only very intelligent, he‘s very arrogant in that he thinks big government can work as long as it’s implemented by someone as brilliant as himself. When he was first accused of being for the individual mandate (either by Paul or Bachmann), he denied it. Then other candidates like Santorum chimed in agreeing with the accusation and Newt had to backpedal and admit to being for it back in 1993 because “all conservatives agreed” the individual mandate was the better alternative to Hillarycare. Santorum promptly stated that he was around back then, was a conservative, and was against the mandate. The facts are right there. Newt was in favor of the individual mandate before he was against it. Like I said, I don’t want to spend the next 11 months listening to Obama attack him on this and Newt having to explain himself. Will Bachman, Paul or Santorum have to explain such an inconsistency in their record on health care? I think not.

Posted on December 11, 2011 at 1:06am@Truth: Exactly. Bachmann’s rebuttal of Santorum was great. It wasn’t what she accomplished legislatively. It was that she had the courage to stick her neck out and fight. What she did may have been more important than any legislation. She rallied Americans to stand up for the constitution and fight Obamacare tooth and nail. She may have failed in that the legislation passed, but not without arm-twisting and bribery among Democrats that completely exposed what a corrupt and unjust law they were passing. Without her being front and center, maybe we would have never heard about the Cornhusker Kickback, the Louisiana Purchase, or Gator-Aid. Her putting this issue front and center may ultimately save this country because the chances now are much better that the law gets overturned because of how the left had to twist itself into a pretzel to pass it and now they’re tripping over themselves, contradicting themselves as they defend the law in federal court.
Santorum may have been in the minority back in the 90′s, but the Democrats weren’t nearly as radical back then as they are now. Anyone with a brain knows that Bachmann was never going to get constitutional legislation passed with the communist Pelosi as speaker of the house.
