Pelosi Doubles Down: Gingrich Won’t Be Elected — There is Something I Know
**Written by Doug Powers
In December, Nancy Pelosi was bragging about having dirt on Newt Gingrich. Shortly after that, she backed off.
As evidenced by an appearance with CNN’s John King, Pelosi wants to once again play the “inside information” game and can’t contain herself:
Pelosi: “He’s not going to be President of the United States. That’s not going to happen. Let me just make my prediction and stand by it, it isn’t going to happen.”
King: “Why are you so sure?”
Pelosi: “There is something I know. The Republicans, if they choose to nominate him that’s their prerogative. I don’t even think that’s going to happen.”
Geez… did something happen on the global warming couch that we don’t yet know about?
You have to watch the video to capture the full glory of Pelosi’s giddy, sophomoric attitude. She behaves like a high schooler who found the letterman jacket of the opposing school’s quarterback in the back seat of the car of the girl who beat her out for homecoming queen — and is dying to tell somebody about it just before the game.

Newt and Nancy were made for each other. Wake up pro wrestling fans Newt isn’t real.
I was shocked, shocked I tell you, when ObumbleEars in his speech tonight said that he’d sign a Congressional Insider Trading Bill that the cameras didn’t pan on Nan
She is one of the Democrats Mitt thinks he can work with in a bipartisan way.
Now they openly use extortion. It’s bayonets and entrenching tools time.
She weighs the same as a duck, and is made of wood, and is therefore….?
Let the Newt-bashing begin!!
Nancy doing her part to make sure the nomination goes to Romney.
Question 1 for Newt. What is Nancy talking about?
I doubt she could remember anything about Newt long enough to make a real revelation. Besides, by now, Romney’s oppo research team should know what there is to know.
I think Pelosi once–a really, really looooooong time ago–was that homecoming queen.
Cave people had homecoming queens?
I figured Newt making the global warming commercial with her would have been a showstopper for any future presidential ambitions. But now I imagine the easily lead GOP faithful will take Pelosi’s attack as proof the dems are afraid of Newt, and thus, they will redouble their efforts to make Newt the flag bearer this November. This should be fun to watch.
I think San Fran Nan now just repressents a lot of wannabe homecoming queens. Most of them have mustaches and answer to the name of John or Scott.
She knows something, huh? Isn’t this the lady who doesn’t know what’s in bills until they’re passed?
I couldn’t click on it. I wasn’t even tempted. The less crap I hear come out of her pie-hole, the better.
Newt’s ex-wife dropped the bomb that “he wanted an open marriage” Just prior to the SC primary and Newt won by double digits.
What does Nancy think she has that can be worse than that? Like him or not, everything there is to be known about Newt is already out there.
The Donkey party will tell you who they fear the most by attacking them early and often.
Those ethics violators know one when they see one.
Pelosi is scarred to death of Newt . . . could it be that he too knows something about her?
yes-sadly the effects of so much botox affecting the few grey cells she had one time.
Pelosi: “There is something I know.
“Solyndra Green is people!”
And people laugh at those who wrap their furniture in plastic.
Nancy: And no, it doesn’t bend to the left like Bill Clinton’s!
You can’t make me!
Put up or shut up, Nancy.
On seond thought, just shut up.
Aaaah, yes! I love the smell of fear early in the morning – reading about San Fran Nan before I’ve had my first cup of tea.
Of course what Nancy Pelosi thinks will ruin Newt in the eyes of Americans may just be something that would boost his numbers. Let us not forget this is a woman who believes that Obamacare, cap and trade, higher taxes, and every other liberal ideal is the best thing ever and that all Americans believe the same thing as she does.
I would not be surprised to find out that the day after the 2010 election when she was told that she would no longer be the speaker she ran to the callendar thinking it was April 1st.
I like what Newt said this morning:
BRING.IT.ON.B****.
Or something like that. Coffee hasn’t kicked in yet.
The Pepublican Party is made up of conservatives and people who like Newt: they think that Jimmy Swaggart was a sincere preacher, that pro wrestling is a real sport and porn is real sex. They are the mirror image of the left and mirror images haven’t a distinction with a difference.
Saul Alinsky is laughing in his grave over Newt Gingrich. Alinsky underestimated the gullibility of the electorate.
How is it that you are so well versed in the ways of science?
i know what she does not know, what was in the obamacare bill!
Ah, another ‘expert’ on what Conservatives think. You forgot to mention about Adam and Eve having pet dinosaurs 6000 years ago. Al, you’ve got us pegged.
What. a. tool.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but this sounds a LITTLE like blackmail, which I believe is illegal. Unless of course you happen to be a politician with a (D) after your name. Then I guess it isn’t blackmail – it’s just sharing with the American public exactly what they should know, right?
Boy, am I glad San Fran Nan is trying to save me from a Gingrich presidency! What ever would we do without her??
Newt is Nancy’s worst nightmare.
Almiller: The Democrat Party actually believed that hope and change meant something good,or not.
The people here, conservatives, some are Republicans, know that the Republicans are in the “game”.
Your in it just by being here.
What, exactly, would you have to know, in addition to what we already know, not to vote for Newt?
I thought the wicked witch was dead.
Pelosi: Gingrich signed an autograph for a guy whose uncle worked with a guy whose cousin only drank Irish whiskey. Therefore, GINGRICH SUPPORTS IRA TERRORISTS!
Yeah, and your point is? Hey, aren’t you the bastage lovechild of Mitch Miller? Who’da thunk he had groupies!
O.T. but related: What ever happened to all the women that had dirt on Cain? They seem to have vanished like a fart in the wind, once the Dems finished using them. The offenses were so egregious that they could not even be mentioned- just anonomous charges, hearsay and vague feelings. But the valiant press focused on it all day, every day until they achhieved their goal of forcing him out of the race. Since then they seem to have lost all interest, almost as if it was all a farce to begin with- oh yeah, there are other Republicans to destroy so they’re on to the next thing.
I know the press doesn’t work for Oblahblah (wink wink), but he manages to get elected because all his opponents have their dirt displayed in the press (sealed divorse records, etc), while they can’t seem to find anything on him at all, it’s almost as if he has no past.
Maybe Nancy was sitting on his hand during that global warming lovefest of a few years ago?
While I’m not a big Gingrich fan I agree with him when he said, “bring it on.” Nancy knows two things: jack and… um… squat.
If this were true, then why not just wait and use the information to guarantee an Obama victory?
What? She might be lying because they fear Gingrich? No, they already said they fear Huntsman and the two are nothing alike.
Dude, have you ever farted in the wind before? They magically whirl around you until you move! Especially if you’ve just eaten hummus…
Sorry, back to topic.
Nancy only knows she can maintain that perpetually shocked look through surgery.
Kill this in the bud, Newt. Fess up to or legally challenge whatever Nancy’s alluding to NOW or may you be damned for screwing our chances by gritting through it and holding out.

Pelosi: “Gingrich professes to be a Catholic like myself. But, he’s anti-abortion!”
OMG! She had turned Saul Alinsky into a Newt!
More from Newt that gives the lie to the new Newt. He is a liar and his supporters are the most gullible fools in the world.

Which brings the question, why isn’t the press demanding Pelosi spill her guts now?
Do they already know and think there is nothing there?
Or do they know, have their stories written and just waiting for the word from the raving dems to go to print for the most damage?
And the Newt-bashing continues!!
Let’s give the democrats a candidate that they can easily defeat – The Massachusetts Moderate – Mitt Romney!!
He got better……
U.S. special forces are the Best!!
Yes, OT, but damn these guys are amazing:)
I support Santorum.
I would just like to say to the Romney, Newt, and Paul supporters, stop acting like Progressives and the OWS crowd.
So and so can’t just be wrong. He has to be nuts or evil or a liar. NONSENSE.
Also, if you want to blast someone’s past do not take the side of the OWS crowd wen you do it. What Newt and Romney did with Fannie Mae, Bain, and their taxes was all legal. Stop acting like some damn Progressive and make it sound like it was immoral or illegal. THAT IS A LIE.
Let’s find our best candidate the right way and not by acting like our enemies. if we do not stop, we’ll pay for it later in spades.
Here! Here! What Fly said!
Go Ron Paul or none at all!
Pelosi’s threats could be enough to get Newt the nomination!! And I believe that’s her intent. Too bad her mother didn’t have an abortion. Nancy is evil incarnate! The “BAD SEED”!
I hope enough Americans find out about Peelousy’s “threat” and begin to wake up to the fact that most politicians (on the right and especially on the left) are nothing but a bunch of “made guys”. Be careful who you vote for. This sounds very much like blackmail to me.
A witch!
I love the Monty Python references!
If Newt had not have existed Saul Alinsky would have had to invent him. Alinsky knew that there were gullible and angry people full of passions and lusts that would rally around a “charismatic” con man looking for someone to scratch their itching ears. They are a mirror image of the leftist rabble a distinction with no difference to men like Alinsky.
Many of us (including myself) like what Gingrich says at the debates, but he is not being fully honest about who he really is and what he really supports. He’s trying to present himself as a Goldwater and Tea Party Republican, when in reality he is a Rockefeller and Dede Scozzafava Republican.
For those willing to watch, I recommend this video:
almiller:
You mean, Newt’s Obowtome’s dark mirror image?
In a sense yes. Alinsky was all about polarization and certainly wouldn’t have been unhappy to have agents, witting or unwitting, on the right to polarize further. Divide and conquer.
Newt support is a product of our leftist education failure.
Delicioso Nancy. Remember though, you live in a glass house.
Or maybe the folks in this country that support Newt are just sick and tired of feeling like we have no dog in a fight. I won’t vote for him in my state’s primary (I’m supporting Santorum), but that doesn’t mean that I think he is unfit to be President. He’s certainly more presidential than the current occupier of the WH is! And the people that are voting for Newt in the primaries are glad to hear someone stand up and fight – maybe he can give pointers (or they will just take them) to whomever garners the nomination eventually.
Lemme guess – they had an affair..with each other.
Almiller: If you’ve read anything on MM you know we see who Newt is. Most here know politicians are in it for themselves.
Newt is no different, money, power, women ,whatever their into they know they can get it.
There’s nothing new under the sun, Saul Alinsky, go back a few thousand years. It’s all been done.
why wouldn’t Imhotep know this? She’s been around for thousands of years…
Riiiggghhht, they have nothing to fear with Newt, Obama will beat him like a drum that’s why Nancy be protesting way too much. Maybe she’ll take her parting shot after Newt gets the nomination and she can ride off into the retirement sunset like her daughter said. Don’t forget Nancy will retire depending on who gets the nomination. She’s setting the stage.
Is that like Otabengay? Oh, never mind….
I’m telling you, this is the trap that awaits a Gingrich nomination. All of the stuff that is supposedly classified and cannot be released legally re the ’90s ethics probe will magically find its way via “anonymous” sources to the likes of Nina Totenberg, the WaPo, the NYT, Politico, etc.. The MSM will protect their sources, even go to prison if need be to save their boy Obama. It won’t be a personal peccadillo like the open marriage allegation either.
After hearing bits and pieces of last night’s SOTUS, I’d vote for a hunk of cheese to get this creep out of office. But I’m not wild about Newt either.
Can we just recruit Navy SEAL Team 6 for the nomination instead?
Yes angry people with itching ears burning with lusts.
And who says there is something wrong with that? Course, the “burning ears” and “lust” comments are a little over the top but I get it that it helps drive home the thought however dramatic. Angry people is dead on though.
Wait till the next thread on Obamacare…
BRING OUT YOUR DEAD, gong … BRING OUT YOUR DEAD…
That is my question too. I find Newt Gingrich very disturbing. Every day, more progressive quotes surface. He is not a conservative, yet SAYS he is a Reagan Conservative! That is a lie. What else is he lying about?
Newt is a great debater. So is Obama. So?
I am not liking that man at all. My gut tells me to run for the hills!
As long as it doesn’t involve photographs of him in a compromising position, I’m open to listening/seeing whatever Pelousy has…
Newt is a politician. Good politicians lie cheat and steal to get elected. Thats what they have to do. The ones who don’t are not elected and therefore not politicians any more.
Pander, tell different audiences what they want to hear. When challenged on previous contradictions, claim they were taken out of context and tell the current group what they want to hear.
Thats the only way you can appeal to a large enough swath of the American public to be elected to National office. It’s politics, Newt and Nancy are experienced politicians. They know.
I would have thought the following would have been enough:
1) He sat on the couch with Nancy
2) He believes in man made global warming
3) He has repeatedly said the politician he most admires is FDR.
4) He savaged Paul Ryan over his budget propsal.
We have two moderates trying to convince the base they are conservatives. In the meantime the RNC and the elites have pummeled and destroyed every conservative that has gained any popularity.
I am at the point where I believe that the day after the 2012 election the Tea Party needs to walk and form a third party. Why not? The only things the RNC and DNC have in common are their lust for power and hatred of the Tea Party,
hummmmm, not necessarily a bad idea. Timing is everything.
Have you been surfing Redtube again?
Pelosi: Newt Gingrich is a…a… master debater. There, I said it.
“Yes angry people with itching ears burning with lust”.
That sounds like something from the old comedy team “Firesign Theatre”.
Pelosi: Newt’s been hot for me for years and I’ve had to beat him off with a schtick (stick). There – my conscience is clean.
We want a fighter and we need one to go up against Obama. He is a fighter. He learned the Alynsky way and it works to some extent. Newt knows this. Romney does not. We liked when Newt hit the media. He can’t do that forever though. We need someone to fight and expose the untruths told by the other fighter in the ring, Obama, and to advocate a conservative view with vigor.
Obama has the MSM weight behind him so we must throw flurrys of punches, counter punches, keep moving, attack his weak spots, work his gut over and over till he is weakened. Then throw the knockout punch. Are you better off than you were 4 years ago?
I like Mitt as a person. He is very amicable and likable. He doesn’t appear to have immoral baggage. He doesn’t know how to fight though and he is not armed with the correct philosophy. He can still change.
If he would abandon the moderate approach and go toe to toe with Obama on conservative v liberal policies, he would do much better. And he is already a front runner. I am not sure he will get it though. He still defends Romneycare. That
wasis a major mistake.OMG! Do you know what the ethics charges were about? Gingrich’s teaching a college course. Farg me runnin. What BS. I thought he stole money from orphans or some such. This was a trumpted up bunch of BS due to Gingrich’s attack on the ethics of Jim Wright, the former speaker on real ethics charges. If the American people hear what this is about, Gingrich is a shoe in.
Pelosi: Newt Gingrich used to regularly see a dominatrix for kinky S&M. Sometimes I used a riding crop.
Typical Newt arrogance for answering Pelosi’s ad: SWF seeks young uncut stud for B&D. Watersports optional.
Nancy: “You have to nominate the Newt to see what’s in it.”
Nancy Pelosi is example #1 of why this country has falled to this sad pathetic level.
Baaawwaaahhhh – mental pictures. eeewwwww!
Anybody here listen to Glenn Beck this AM? His take on the SOTU address: oblamo wants to cut back on the powers of the other 2 branches of government, and give the El Presidente position more autonomous authority. So the wheels of justice and fairness can go fast, rather than turning slow, like the Forefathers had planned. That was set in place to protect the newly formed America from becoming a dictatorship…. well, folks, I do believe it’s here.
All of you who will not vote for the final candidate left standing for the Republicans will be voting for oblamo and his socialist schtick. he is ready to ride roughshod all over you and me, no matter HOW you VOTED. You and I are toast.
When Romney is up, Democrats are excited because Republicans are set to nominate the “weakest candidate”.
When Gingrich is up, there is talk of a secret that makes him “unelectable” (ie, the weakest candidate).
Wake up and realize that every Republican is the worst choice, every Republican policy is anathema, truth is deception, war is peace, etc.
Pretty transparent.
Ann Coulter was really pissed about Newt possibly winning. She claimed that he can not win the general. Does she know something too?
We know Anil Petra we know.
The Democrats are here to help us out of our misery etc, Obama is right, conservatives are wrong we’ve heard it all before.
You might try reading MM periodically.
Most of us have read ’1984′, which you almost quoted.
I had the distinct displeasure of meeting Ann Coulter back in 2005.
This is not a nice person….as a matter of fact, b***h would be too nice a word – don’t care what she’s p.o.’d about.
According to Rush, Pelosi’s office has now backtracked on Gingrich – they now say that she has nothing on him.
He probably should sue her for blackmail and libelous remarks.
What a lowlife Pelosi is. Geesh!
Just the stuff that we DO know about him is enough for me. No to Newt. As I said before, he is a great debater. So is Obama. So?
I’m in agreement with you. I saw her in an interview talking about Newt and she was absolutely rabid…she’s a paid romney hack. I’ve lost respect for her and many others, including Beck. If nothing else, this vetting process has done more than just vet the candidates…
I take her at her word. The Newt supporters only defense is “well she would go to jail if she disclosed any ethics report” THAT’S A DEFENSE??? Since when did libs play by rules??? Leaks are Leaks! Do you really trust that Newt does not have anything more to hide???? I think he does have other stuff! Are you taking that chance???? Character Counts people…. anybody but Newt i will vote for …otherwise I sit it out.

For Gods sake, don’t sit it out!! Are you nuts??? Do you not understand the importance of the Congressional races??? Write in Mickey Mouse for POTUS if you want, but go to the polls and VOTE. We MUST take the Congress! That is even MORE important than the POTUS.
Sorry, I don’t mean to yell, but that kind of comment makes me CRAZY!!!!
I’m passing this along without comment because otherwise I just start sputtering:
Pelosi backtracks:
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0112/71941.html
Not possible, he’s already sitting in the WH.
Misscheryl #98–you beat me to it.
If only he were as cute and lovable as the original…
Yeah but he’s still a rodent.
