   With regard to the NY23rd. How honorable is Hoffman? Is he good for his word? Does a pledge mean anything to him?

   “Despite having signed a pledge to support the eventual nominee to emerge from the process, Hoffman considered the possibility of asking for the Conservative Party’s endorsement to run against Scozzafavva, making it a three way race. When Paul Maroun declined Mike Long’s offer to run on the Conservative line, Hoffman approached Long and asked for the nod. Happy to have a credible candidate, Long agreed, and a three way race was on.”

   Hoffman went into the process, signed a pledge, and now wants a second bite at the apple.

   Hoffman also signed a pledge not to raise taxes. He has demonstrated that he is willing to break pledges. Well, at least pledges that have no enforcement provisions. Does that ‘no tax’ pledge have any enforcement provisions? Is Hoffman’s pledge (word) just theater or does he really mean it?

   Yep, Paul Maroun is an honorable, pledge respecting Republican, but what is Hoffman?

   Forty percent of Americans describe their political views as conservative, 36% as moderate, and 20% as liberal.

   That means that 76% of the vote would be for someone other than a liberal! If that is the case, the libs don’t have a chance in 2010! As for this past election, I smell giant fraud. There are plenty of rumbings out there about voter fraud everywhere in the last election.

   As for Newt, he is as stuck on stupid as the rest of the RINO’s. As is the case with the libs in DC, Newt isn’t listening either. The voters will be speaking up at election time and I have a feeling we will get the GOP’s attention in 2010, in time to find a true conservative candidate to run for POTUS in 2012. If not, the GOP is toast.

    What do you want to bet that the RNC & “fiscal cons” are going to push Newt the Knucklehead into the GOP nomination against Barak Al-Honolulu?

    By the way, should anyone want to know how Newt could go from Contract With America Freedom Fighter to I Loves Me Some Al Sharpton RINO, it was his sexual peccadillos that turned him to the dark side. This should serve as a warning to anyone willing to vote for a man who’ll cheat on his wife and/or get jiggy with his employees.

    I wish Newt had enough respect for the American people to stick to a single principle or pledge or vow even if it were something as basic as a wedding vow! Even that is asking too much for “family-values man Newt!”

    McCain lost my support with McCain-Feingold back in 2003. Newt lost my support a long time ago over many similar displays of contempt for the American people and American Constitution.

    No, I won’t be pulling the lever for Newt in 2012.

    Exactly. WarEagle82, you get the gold star!

    There are only a few chances we have in 2012. One is to keep people informed as to the Republican candidate the liberals want. The second is to try for an open convention instead of a rubber stamp.

    The problem is that we’re fragmented across several platforms and factions. That’s what I sought to fix with the Federalist Party Platform, which would also be a great platform for a coalition of conservative parties, as it was created by bringing together the common ground of the major conservative parties known at the time.

    I love Michelle. She tells it like it is, without sugar coating for the mushy- brained among us. You go, girl!

    I’m very disappointed with Newt. He used to be such a firebrand and now he’s gone all soft on the Left, just when we can least afford it.

    Stay out of the race, Newt. You permanently fouled your brand when you started making nice with Nancy and her buddies.

    You don’t compromise with Libs. You defeat them.

    NO Newt, especially after his latest endorsement. It is not about the R or D; it’s about returning to the Constitution and getting the gov out of our lives. The gov has mucked up enough thing already.

    AMERICAN PATRIOT gets it right. Close the Republican primary elections to crossover voters to keep from getting more RINO candidates.
    ***
    As far as Newt–he has been “jumping the shark” too often lately. Its like watching Muhammed Ali staying in the ring too long and taking too many shots to the cabesa. Its time for Newt to leave the stage.
    ***
    The only Republican candidate I see who can win is Sarah Palin. Her consistent good judgment and strong beliefs in her personal life and political actions stand out when compared to the professional politicians lack of the same qualities.
    ***
    SARAH’CUDA for POTUS–JOHN BOLTON for VP. No more RINO’s or professional politicians. Vote them out in 2010 and 2012.

    No, No, No Newt!

    I will vote for conservative principles and let the chips fall where they may. If there are not enough conservative votes to win so be it. Compromise will only lead to more dilution of our Constitutional form of government.

    I am done with Newt and with compromise period!

    Newt’s people called my house last night looking for donations.

    I told them that I had lost trust in Newt and wouldn’t give dollars to anyone who legitimized Al Sharpton. I told them my money is going to consistent conservatives and issues groups like NUMBERS USA

    As much as Newt may want to pretend that he is like Ronald Reagan, that is patently deceptive.

    Ronald Reagan was a Goldwater Conservative with a Democrat-controlled Congress.

    Newt is no Goldwater Conservative. Just the opposite. He is a Rockefeller Republican. While Reagan campaigned for Goldwater in 1964, Newt campaigned for Nelson Rockefeller‘s Presidential campaign in 1968!

    … Rush Limbaugh to run this country!! … way too polarizing

    Happy, your heart is in the right place but you ought to not reject “polarizing” figures like Rush and Palin. No matter who we nominate, the MSM will brand them polarizing “wackos” if they are to the right of Mao. We do NOT need a “consensus” candidate to try and reach 50%. All we need is to stand true to the principles already embraced by about 40% of sensible Americans and let the 40% independents choose between that and the Marxism supported by 20%. If we are fuzzy in drawing that contrast, that’s when we are in danger of losing. We should strongly stand up for free enterprise, free speech, secret ballots, traditional marriage, the right to life, law and order and winning our wars. If we nominate a candidate who’s wishy-washy on those things and tries to appeal to “moderates” by trying to save the planet from light bulbs and advocating a milder socailist dictatorship and so forth we the people will lose no matter who wins.

    As for this past election, I smell giant fraud. There are plenty of rumbings out there about voter fraud everywhere in the last election.

    Indeed. What would have been the election results with the corruption of taxpayer-funded ACORN?

    And what about the inherent fraud of Obama running for an office for which he was never eligible?

    Obama was born a British subject, and admitted to that undisputed fact.

    How can someone born a British subject be considered a “natural born citizen” of the United States of America?

    Obama is ineligible, due to what he inherited, at birth, from his British subject father.

    And for those who believe that only birth location matters, regardless of foriegn citizenship obtained at birth from a parent, I ask you:

    Which Government organization was the first to say “Obama was born in Hawaii”?

    There is definitely something “fishy” about the true answer to that question.

    Gingrich has always been the source of a love/hate relationship as far as I’m concerned.

    He’s at his best when he’s commenting on FOX, dissecting the latest insanity being foisted on us by the donks. He demonstrates on a routine basis that he’d be more than a match for any donk in a debate setting.

    But just when I start thinking that he could overcome all the baggage he’s carried since the 1990s and be someone I could vote for in 2012, he goes on some weird ideological bender — consorting with the Domestic Enemy.

    Is someone like warmed-up leftover Huckabee or Romney, or a polarizing lightning rod like Palin the best we can do?

    The good news is that at his present rate Hope-a-Dope is headed into territory where a Republican “canned ham” will have a good shot at ousting him come 2012.

    The other news is that it looks like canned hams are about all the Republicans will be able to offer up.

    Newt has more good ideas in a week than most people do in a lifetime, but ideas don’t make a leader.

    His chance has gone, and there isn’t much more pathetic than could have, would have and should have. Had he forced the issue on the government shutdown, he’d have proven that most Americans wouldn’t miss a large percentage of the Federal bureaucracy shutting down forever. He caved. The looters won.

    Newt may have some good ideas but he has an equal number of very bad ideas. And he never seems to actually implement the conservative ideas he “champions.” Remember when he was going to “defund” the left back in 1994? How’d that work out?

    Newt is way past his time. He is so far down the “big government road” he can’t see the on ramp…

     I cannot get a picture Stanley and Ollie out of mind when I see that still from that commercial.

     and Stan and Ollie are a lot better looking than the two political clowns in the picture (and a lot more worthy of attention)!
