Gingrich wins S.C.!

On to Florida! This has definitely become a Romney/Gingrich race ... so long Paul and Santorum may you both get in behind your choice of those left standing!

we're so fucked

In times like this I offer the following comfort.

DESIDERATA

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
And remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly & clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull & ignorant;
they too have their story.

Avoid loud & aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain & bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing future of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.


Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity & disenchantment
it is perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue & loneliness.
Beyond wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees & the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.


Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labours & aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery & broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.

Be cheerful.

Strive to be happy. :)
 
apple, your world and universe is anathema to peace, freedom, and happiness. I'll strive to do what I want while doing no harm to anyone else. you'll strive to employ soldiers to kill those who will not yield to your desires.

Quite the contrary. My world promotes peace, freedom, and happiness. We covered this before. War vs government medical. Greed vs controls on shylocks. Republicans vs Democrats.
 
right....if newt wins the pub nom....obama hands down

romney....close...but still obama

What you miss is "its the economy stupid". What Newt did to his wives is despicable... He would never stand a chance in a normal election cycle. If nothing else clues the democrats in to their likely loss, this should. I am confident that either Romney, or Newt, will win against Obama. Voters, IMO, are willing to hold their proverbial noses and vote for Newt, if need be, rather then have 4 more years of a quasi socialist, who has shown an inept ability to lead, win again. No one has confidence in Obama as shown with his high negatives in the polls yurt.

That said, republican's, make a grave mistake in defending Gingrich over his infidelities- to say "yeah, but Clinton did it", is dumb. Rather, accept that Gingrich, does not deserve the nomination on the merit of his past infidelities, but instead he deserves it on the merit of his ability to move our economy forward in a positive direction, as proven while he was Speaker.

Democrats have no trouble electing or reelecting candidates that have failed in rhetoric or life, when they believe, they are electing the right man for the job- We too should have no trouble facing our obvious hypocrisy over one issue- moral uprightness, contrasted with economic soundness, in order to save our nations economic soundness.

Obama will lose to either Gingrich or Romney- You made your prediction, I make mine :)
 
all polls show newt getting crushed by obama. Romney is the only competitive republican.

Polls don't exactly have a good track record predicting winners this far out. Nine months from the 1980 elections, all the GOP candidates polled worse than Carter. Reagan won in a landslide. In 1992, Bush Sr. was ahead of all Democrat candidates. In 2008, if we had gone with the polls this far out, we would have had a President Hillary or Huck, depending on which poll you looked at.

Romney being 'competitive' in the polls, to a sitting president, is NOT a good thing. Especially when you consider how much trouble Romney has connecting with a base. If an absolute political DOG like Romney can poll this close, your boy ain't doing too well. I'd be worried a little.

If you want another Reagan, support Romney. Reagan was a moderate governor of a liberal state who went on to become a conservative President.

Newt will lose, guaranteed.
