Ya, Reagans 80+ year old widow is rolled out to read a speech written for her at a Newt gala, and that trumphs Newt Gingrich's ACTUAL WORDS!??
pathetic.
At first I felt like Newt was the lesser of two evils. Now after seeing his fiery debate performances I am genuinely thinking he might be the great intellectual voice for Conservatism that we've been waiting for.
Ya, Dirkas 80+ year old dirka is rolled out to read a speech written for dirka at a Dirka gala, and that trumphs Dirka Dirkarich's
ACTUAL DIRKAS!??
p"dirka
Newt = conservative
mittens = obama= progressive = RNC = status quo
I believe she was 75 years old at the time and very ambulatory – not that you are trying to disparage her based on her age or anything like that.
Can't argue with THAT.
NANCY REAGAN: ‘RONNIE WARNED YOU ABOUT THE K E N Y A N’
Your comment made not one iota of sense.
The only torch getting passed to Newt is from Ronnie Junior.
DO NOT ALLOW THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA TO PICK YOUR NOMINEE !
Newt is the only one who will hand Obama his A $$ to him in November 2012
Newt does not play on that team but barack hussein obama is a loud and proud member
I believe that this should be a fight between Newt and Santorum.
1) Newt is able to articulate the conservative message. This is extremely important for us since the past 3 candidates did not have that ability (Dole, Bush, McCain). He's got some baggage, but I think he's probably on board.
2) Santorum is a pretty normal guy – had some bad votes, but over time has been very consistent. We'll know what we're getting with Rick.
3) Poor Mitt – smart guy, good business person, very bad speaking style, bad socialist decisions in Massachusetts. He's got that weird attack-dog thing going on which does nothing but piss off thinking people.
I wish Newt had passed it on to Bush in 2000.
You are a moron.
Eightball.
Notice First Lady Reagan did not say 'handed the torch to Ron Paul , MItt Romney or George HW Bush"
Nancy knew Ronnie the best. Matt Drudge, Ann Coulter, Mitt Romney , Christ Christie , the idiots at hotair.com, didn't know him at all.
Its funny because Newt was a Rockfeller supporter http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embed...
I want to see Newt hand it to him, on a paper plate.
There is no way Newt is a conservative. Go check your facts.
Newt has been endorsed by Reagan economist Art Laffer, Reagan son (the good one) Michael Reagan, Sarah Palin (at least in South Carolina), Todd Palin, JC Watts, Fred Thompson, Thomas Sowell and other well respected Conservatives. Newt is far and away the more Conservative of the two candidates… Not to mention that he's the one who can most effectively champion Conservative views in the general election (Romney will just be championing whatever's popular in the polls)
Because Ben Franklin was 81 when he lent his support to the ratification of the Constitution, we should throw the whole thing out, right? You're part of what's wrong with the country.
Newt takes it. She may be old but, she is still a Reagan and will carry a lot of weight with conservatives.
Go get em Honey Badger, we are expecting alot from you. Do not let us down.
That comment by Pelosi is not accurate at all – Reagan was not nearly as conservative as Goldwater, and Newt is worlds away from Reagan. Both Reagan and Goldwater would be horrified at the new direction the republican party has taken. Conservative democrats have left the now socialist democrat party and become the new republicans.
Reagan may have passed the torch to Newt who promptly extinguished it in the toilet and became a big government phony conservative. Read Drudge to see how Newt really felt about Reagan who mentioned him once in his book. Newt is nuts.
Newt was a Rockfeller supporter during the PRIMARY that both Rockefeller and Goldwater were in
Newsflash ! Goldwater won the primary,,,,,,,,,,,,THEN NEWT joined his campaign.
Is it my imagination, or since Anne Coulter has gotten involved with her new love interest, she has lost her edge? She appears ever increasingly irrational and hysterical.
Perhaps it is a hormonal thing, but at the rate she is going, she is ruining her credibility and becoming volatile.
I hope Santorum' and Romney are both gone soon so the GOP can really take a good look at its two, competing visions of conservatism:
First there's Newt: pretentious, warmonger, believes in climate change, is a big spender, wants amnesty, and wouldn't change much in the way of monetary policy if he becomes president, an ethical train wreck.
Then there's Paul: an unpretentious, principled man and only candidate with a plan to seriously cut federal spending; a man who'll go to war not for profiteering and nation-building but to protect vital national security interests and the homeland and declare it in a constitutionally approved fashion; who wants to bring the reign of the fed and IRS to a close and give our nation's future generations a chance to avoid generational bankruptcy.
In my estimation Newt and Paul represent the two directions the GOP can go in and if it chooses Newt it's decided to keep the train on the track until it reaches the cliff.
Your comment did not make sense.
What comment by Pelosi?
Bush wouldn't take it. His election was the result of a RINO uprising , not a conservative advancement
RINOS nearly destroyed the GOP altogether , thats' why Obama was able to get elected
No, what's pathetic is liberal wastes of space such as you.
You are a filthy terrorist loving douche bag… at least she has more class than that PIG Barack H. Obama is married too.
No kidding.
Whats your point he stated over and over again I'm a Rockefeller Republican. The big government wing of the party is what Newt belongs to. Just because you want to believe something doesn't make it true. Newt is a liar plain and simple. I would be happy to list the countless liberal things Newt has done if you would like. Just read anything Anne Coulter has written about him the last couple of weeks. The guy is a joke.
Yeah , you are right. She's gone off her rocker . I suspect it's from getting hit by her past words She declared Romney unelectable because of Romneycare .Hannity called her out on it. by playing the CPAC video of her speech.
She's been a basketcase ever since.
Sowell is by far the best, and most convincing among that group. I absolutely love his thinking and his books are just wonderful to read.
I need to remember he's for Newt.
and a Reagan national security advisor although his name escapes me at the moment.
Disregard the pro-Newt stuff you hear. Just dwell on the controversial so Romney can skate to the finish. It seems like Romney was the establishment offer we we supposed to be unable to refuse.
She's lost more than her edge. The last time I saw her on TV she looked like she lost her mind.
At the end of the day Newt is a liar.
He lied during that debate and I darn well guarantee you that he has done so before the debate and will continue to do so. That's what liars do. When they get in trouble they lie. Newt can't be trusted.
I don't like liars and I don't support them. In the end if Newt is the nominee I will vote for him but not without feeling sick to my stomach.
It is dated 1998
NINETEEN NINETY EIGHT
OK?
For a fact, when going into battle, a smart man won't be romantically involved.
Coulter has lost the edge.
You are asking my point? What's yours? Both men were conservative Goldwater's foriegn policy made him ultra conseravaitve……libertarian in nature
Goldwater lost the election because of that.
Newt has not done any liberal things, All the nutty Glenn Beck crap he's been telling you is a lie
For instance, when Newt talks to liberals about a mandate, he says well if you have that you must have surety bonds ie.–personal healthcare accounts'
In Glenn Becks world , talking to leftists and trying to get them to agree to conservative ideas, somehow makes you a liberal yourself
Details matter, every word in a sentence, ever sentence in a paragraph matters.
When Newt talks to liberals about cap and trade, he talks about it being "tax incentive driven" , and the 'trading" is of those incentives This is the opposite of AL Gores penalty system, where if you get taxed if you dont comply to the measures.
I will agree with that.
Newt=Lying, cheating, backstabbing, narcissistic, grand-standing, loose cannon.
Perhaps it’s full disclosure. Let me get this straight Newt one the most successful speakers in our countries history, voted and lead as a conservative and in 2012 is running as a conservative, but a comment about supporting Rockefeller supplants all of that. I guess you hope enough of us will switch our support to Senator Santorum (who I would be more than happy with) so a pale pastel wins the nomination.
"All the nutty Glenn Beck crap he's been telling you is a lie."
Ah yes!
Glenn Beck.
At one time, I sure thought a lot of him.
I did indeed learn a lot from him.
I always admit to my mistakes.
I was taken in by a charlatan.
Glenn Beck will do anything in his power, to have a Mormon President.
Having Ezra Taft Benson as Secretary of Agriculture did US enough harm, we do not need one in the Oval office.
I guess Michael Reagan doesn’t count either. Here is a thought how about his record and his agenda.
You mad?
Or do you love obammy?
It wasn't supposed to.
She may have a new book in the works too.
If Newt comes out on top, she will be there for him.
Thus far, you are batting 1,000.
More "sage" wisdom from puke-green Kool-aid. /sarc
Hmmmm.
Going where the wind blows and where the money goes.
They have an unflattering term for that.
Sadly, we may never know, as stubborn petulant children purportedly on our side, seem hell bent on nominating the at best moderate Romney.
As the epitome of "snotty" remarks, I'm sad to see Ann turning into a blatherskite.
Didn't know I was swinging, lets see if this helps you.

Drudge used to be one of my heroes. I hate to say that he has done A TON of damage to the Republican Party by almost singlehandedly shoving Mitt Romney down our throats. It was he who initially propped up Romney as a Republican savior in the 2007 election cycle. Some of the Talk Radio hosts reluclantly went along with him (he holds alot of sway with GOP intelligensia) and some of them even played along with Drudge's brutal attacks on Mike Huckabee (who should have been the nominee in 08). Now Drudge is doing it again, trying to elevate liberal Mitt RomneyCare by viciously attacking real Conservatives like Rick Perry and Newt Gingrich (although most of the Talk Radio guys are not with him this time)
Once upon a time I loved Drudge but he seems to be experiencing some sort of temporary insanity. He obviously believes that all other Republicans have to be torn down so that MItt Romney can be the GOP nominee (Ann Coulter seems to agree with him). But why? What does Romney offer?
I agree with Reagan. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jK2_trRPRk

Stories about Newt "trashing" Reagan has had me concerned lately. I'm sure that Newt was at odds with Ronnie about the deal to increase taxes in exchange for spending cuts, and most likely Ronnie's stance on immigration "amnesty".
But then, if Newt was constantly critical of Reagan as some stories depict, why would so many of Reagan's deputies and trusted advisors be giving such glowing support for Newt.
Sounds like a MSM smear campaign to me.
Rush was just discussing Newt again. He's gone over the good and bad and the recent multipronged coordinated attacks against Newt. Rush wondered if there really were people for Newt because the Republicn establishment is rejecting him. The Republican hatred for Newt is indeed an attractant for me. The Republican extablishment did not fight McCain. McCain endorsed Romney. The establishment hates Newt. There is something attractive about the establishment hating Newt, I admit it. An Obama overthrow would be sweet, but an overthrow of the establishment Republican structure and the defeat of Obama would be ecstasy!.
He said to Newt AND THE REPUBLICAN MEMBERS OF CONGRESS.
Once more Newt is trying to steal singular-ownership.
History proves that Newt abandoned the conservative cause in search of fame and fortune, selling-out over and over again.
The conservative Republicans in Congress who ALSO received the torch kept the flame alive.
Newt is a fraud and that is obvious to anyone interested in truth.
Then again, all four of these guys are frauds when is comes to the conservative movement – we need an open Convention — OR a voter uprising — VOTE for NONE OF THE ABOVE! We need a different nominee.
nailed it.
I cannot find enough of a difference between Romney and Obama that would lead many to make a distiction that would cause them to vote for Romney over Obama.
Six of one…
…half dozen of the other.
It's a pity about Glenn Beck. It's more of a pity I feel none for him.
Oh yeah Bud McFarlane… and i forgot Rick Perry too
The kind that will get mad and take their ball home.
Romney's great claim is that he has "worked" with a Democrat majority.
In my book, that makes him a "pragmatic" Republican, just like Bob Dole and John McCain.
We don't need another Rpublican who will go along to get along…
…we need a true conservative who will "take names and kick a$$".
Go check your facts.
This could go on forever.
Is too, is not,is too, is too, is not.is too. is not
I like Santorum too. I just don't think he has the orbs to take on the Zero. We need a bulldog that will dig in and not let go. I really think the only one that fits that model is Newt; and bitching ex-wives is not an issue compared to what we're facing if the Zero is reelected!
yep, from one loser to another loser!
I like the cannon part.
So Breitbart posting a video of Newt being praised by Nancy Reagan, in your world translates into Newt is "once more trying to steal singular ownership"?
Do you see little green men in your pea soup too?
There is no history of selling out in Newts history,
You are an idiot. You are a nut, Get off the crazy train that Glenn Beck has you on.
Shrill is what comes to my mind.
Folks, this statement was made SEVENTEEN years ago, before Newt went STATIST on us (i.e pro-global warming, pro-amnesty, pro-single payer healthcare, etc).
Don't be fooled.
Well hell, lets just elect them all to the Presidency.
I just heard that if Jerry Springer was a conservative, he would endorse Mitt.
Wouldn't be the first time. Arianna Huffington was a Reagan conservative in the early '90s until she hooked up with Bill Mahar, and he corrupted her mind.
I think Ann may be taking that slow step backwards.
That's been bugging me also.
It is obvious to all of us here that you don't bother with facts because facts don't bother you.
I don't doubt what you are saying about Drudge, but calling Perry and Gingrich "real" conservatives is simply not true. A real conservative promotes limited government, and those two guys have a long history of supporting many programs that vastly expand the size and scope of government. They are the typical modern day big government, republicans. With the mountain of debt and the problems excessive spending and caused and the problems government intervention has caused in medicine, student loans, auto industry, banking, airlines, housing, etc…..the last thing we need is another big government phony conservative.
Any exposure to Bill Mahar can cause sever brain damage from the diseased thinking of that reprobate. I'm sure glad BB left that hellhole of misinformation and hate and turned around from the dark side.
Newt was able to balance a budget for 4 years and lowered taxes…where is big government in all of that?
Name some big government programs Newt introduced into congress.
You sound irrational.
Read the text – it clearly says "and" not "only Newt" – but to listen to Newt it only says Newt.
The record shows that Newt did do something alone – he abandoned the conservative cause – repeatedly.
Paul, Romney, and Santorum are no better. It is a very bad situation the RNC and Romney-media/manipulators have created for real conservatives.
Wake up and smell the coffee. You are being lied to … again … by another lifelong Washington, DC hack … Newt.
Conservatives, rather than selling-out to what they imagine to be least ugly of four terrible alternatives, need to revolt and demand other candidates. At least cast a protest vote for Perry and force an open Convention. We have to be able to do better than this pitiful lot.
There is and has not been in my lifetime a presidential candidate and damn few politicians who are not liars..
The establishment is unleashing all the guns. The venerable Bob Dole, another republican loser is wading in.
For all you Romneybots out there:
Romney didn't appoint a lot of conservatives to the bench as governor, what makes you think he will as POTUS? http://gopprimary2012.com/a-look-at-romneys-judic....
"In 2005, The Boston Globe ran a story on Romney’s judicial appointments. The article stated:
Governor Mitt Romney, who touts his conservative credentials to out-of-state Republicans, has passed over GOP lawyers for three-quarters (75%) of the 36 judicial vacancies he has faced, instead tapping registered Democrats or independents – including two g a y lawyers who have supported expanded same-s e x rights.
Of the 36 people Romney named to be judges or clerk magistrates, 23 are either registered Democrats or unenrolled voters who have made multiple contributions to Democratic politicians or who voted in Democratic primaries, state and local records show. In all, he has nominated nine registered Republicans, 13 unenrolled voters, and 14 registered Democrats."
That is what scares conservatives away. That is long term damage. We have already had too many Republican presidents nominate "Trojan" conservative judges. We don't need more.
Why isn't this all over BB and Drudge?
Newt has to be able to stand up to all the potential downfalls out there which are unflattering to say the least.
Would you rather it come out now or wait for NBC to crank up their big machines?
These are some pretty big bombs that have to be defused. Better to get them neutralized in January than October.
I completely and utterly agree, but if Newt dropped out I would support Santorum not Romney.
It is just January. Newt is on the top now so he has to be vetted completely.
There are always going to be disagreements on policies within an administration. If you took video clips of everything someone in the inner circle disagreed with, it could appear they were polar opposites with the President or whoever. If you taped every politician who was on the team running against a candidate in his own party in a primary, everyone would look like a hypocrite because in the end they all "love" the winner.
The headline makes it seem like Reagan passed the torch to Newt personally as his protege or something… that's NOT what Nancy meant. Oh well, just another misleading Breitbart headline to draw web traffic and comments.
Nope, here's some more good news. http://www.thenationalpatriot.com/?p=4138
Damn, Romney. YouTube is going to be a pesky thing.
Would you describe your post as fair and balanced? Paul will also be a train wreck because he will drive backwards and not look where he is going…The only candidate looking at the road in front of him is Santorum…
If she suddenly gains 20 lbs we will know she is under the influence of Christie…
He didn't balance anything….that is another outright lie:

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statement...
http://njtoday.net/2012/01/23/fact-check-did-ging...
Don't be a sucker that believes politicians nonsense.
Pitiful is a value judgement you can make form yourself, but not for others,,,Any one of them would make a better President than the one we have now…
Yes, I would describe my post as balanced because I correctly note that Newt and Paul represent the two markedly distinct, competing visions of conservatism.
Newt and Paul offer vastly different directions for the GOP and the question becomes which way will it choose?
If Newt's given the keys to the car we're in for a Mr. Magoo ride.

I didn't agree with Reagan on illegal amnesty nor raising taxes one dollar for two dollars in cuts which I knew would never occur.
However, Reagan was as close to a pure conservative as we will ever know.
