Here is Nancy Reagan, when President Reagan was too sick to attend, commending Newt Gingrich: She literally says Ronnie passed the torch to Newt:
Newt is a big government conservative.
And Romney is a big government liberal.
Those are our choices, Brother.
I this Newt will at least try to shrink government, that is why the Republican Establishment is so desperate to derail him.
If he wins, and both the senate and house are Republican controlled, then when he tries, the Congress will be forced to go along or look like hypocrites and lose their seats.
Simple as that.
I know Romney isn't going to do jack crap...he's the establishment firewall to keep that centralized power.
There is a choice it's called write in.
