Were true Conservatives duped into nominating an unprincipled and spineless Mittens Romney?

Newt resigned in disgrace from Speaker of the US House of Representatives for a good reason. Let sleeping Newts lie.

Superfan" probably hates my political leanings, but he's correct. "All" Republicans do not admire Gingrich, of course. Not since the late 1990s have "ALL" Republicans loved Gingrich, although many supported him with real fervor back in 1996.

In almost any question in YA Politics, the word "ALL" is a red herring. It's a weasel word, it represents a virtual impossibility, and it tends to discredit every question that contains it. To answer your question, though, most politicians on the right, left & center -- including Romney - are considered more likeable today than Gingrich is.

Gingrich's serial adulteries, his love of below-the-belt rhetoric, his shifts in religious beliefs, his apparently total sexual hypocrisy during the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal, and his legal sanctions for past political improprieties all marked him as a GOP politician with a truly troublesome past. The GOP voters in the primaries selected Romney, I think, because they knew that Gingrich had far too much negative baggage to win against Obama. Most GOP voters were apparently hoping that Romney would be more electable, even if they didn't love him that much.

I'm a biased leftist, so I could be wrong about this. But go back and reread the media coverage of the Romney / Gingrich rivalry, and I think you'll find that Superfan's analysis is basically right. - democratic socialist.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
