How the Gingrich stole the nomination

Newt is the front-runner on national polls, and we don’t have much left until the Iowa caucuses. He reminds me of stained dresses, Macintosh Performa, presidential cigars, Windows 95, the government shutdown, and worse; Grunge music. Is he really the best guy we can muster? I thought the Republican party disliked elitism. This guy is a historian: can you get more elite than that?

If what we needed for president were a professor-like talking head, I would be perfectly fine with the one we have right now. I suspect many will feel the same way when the election date comes. The Republican Party can choose the most conservative candidate on Earth; but if that person is not electable, it means NOTHING, which brings me to another point:

Newt is not even that conservative. He cheated on his wives (plural). He took money from Freddie Mac. He is actually compassionate towards the illegal aliens. His own party kicked him out of Congress. He is anti-global warming, just like Gore.

Mitt Romney needs to make the point that he is the most electable and viable candidate out there. One may think this is easy to do since it is true, but he hasn’t been able to do it yet.
