O yeah, I forgot, you have all the inside scoop!! And how it is better to have four more of Obomma!
You might want to look at why ORomney received less of the Asian vote than he did the Hispanic vote.

It looks like Newt would like to change the party within, but after how they threw him under the bus until AFTER their candidate lost, I doubt they can self-correct. NOW everyone is calling for Newt to come and explain how to fix what is wrong. Go figure.

Did it ever occur to the Republican Party and those that supported Romney that he was just a ruse of a candidate? Did it ever occur to them that a legitimate candidate who really offered true and honest change would have won? Did it ever occur to them that Romney had a liberal record on taxes, Cap and Trade, gay marriage, gay rights, quotas, gun control, immigration.

Did they not notice that the "conservative leaders" tried to portray him as something he was not - a "severe conservative"?

No wonder 3 million Republicans stayed home. What was the point? Obviously, they didn't buy what Romney was selling.

Don't they know that we saw him for what he was, a Progressive who would have set the party back for decades? He would have come into the WH hiding under a mantle of being a conservative and carried out his big government agenda that he had going on in Massachusetts.

I don't necessarily endorse Marco Rubio, but he had it right that many cannot find a job and are not necessarily wanting a handout. Newt lays that argument out very well in the video during the Q&A toward the end.

And who in the world is going to work their backsides off when the government (of BOTH parties) stymies personal growth? Why not vote for the candidate who offers a cushion while waiting for the economy to recover?

I am glad he lost. Now, let us see if the Republicans are really serious about the country or if they are also part of the problem. I suspect they are part of the duopoly problem. Look at the NDAA amendment vote tally above - that shows they are part of the problem.

And if anyone wants to go the route of voter fraud, just look a little deeper at what Romney pulled off during the Republican primaries. What goes around comes around. He got his comeuppance.
