Mutiny on the Gingrich
Top aides to former House Speaker Newt Gingrich have resigned en masse, Fox News has learned, imperiling the Republican's 2012 presidential campaign at a crucial time.

Among the senior staff members Gingrich is losing are spokesman Rick Tyler and campaign manager Rob Johnson, along with other strategists. Insiders say Gingrich and senior aides were unable to agree on the direction of the campaign.
Nobody wants to watch him commit suicide.
Aides to Congressman Weiner, this is how you do it...

#1  Not surprising that his popularity with Republicans and the Tea Party are about on the level with the popularity of Plague.

#2  Realistically, I doubt that Newt had has much of a chance. A lot of baggage. However, if he were the only candidate running against the ONE, I would have to vote for him.

#3  Hey, Newt - this is what's known as "getting knocked upside the head with a cluebat."

Pay attention.

#4  And he's a lousy SF writer too.

#5  To quote Mark Levin, "I'd vote for an empty orange juice can before I would vote for Obama".

#6  I still wish we had the choice for voting for "none of the above." That choice would win, hands down.

And probably do a better job.

#7  ...which is exactly why the ruling caste will ever permit it.

#8  Basic Campfire 2012!

#9  That is what happens when you believe uncritically in the Global Warming Craze™.
