Yes, this tells me everything I need to know about the folks in South Carolina...sheesh! What were they thinking? How long will it take for them to be embarrassed by this and make some sort of excuses?

Definitely, it was party time tonight at the WH.

dixiegirl7, I'd never accuse South Carolina people of thinking. The state lives in 1862, all the time.

He has average man faults, he's overweight, cheated on his wife, lies with great precision, but speaks with such passion. He even released his tax returns. Take that Willard!!! He did honorable work for Fannie and Freddie. How'd I ever overlook this pillar of society. I encourage all republicans to get behind our next President..Newton Leroy Gingrich..Shoot, he even has the middle name of a black man..
Funny, i always thought Leroy was a French name.

Don't blame the good people of South Carolina. They did the GOP a service.

The SC voters were right to reject Romney. They know a phony when they see one. Romney ran a lousy campaign in their state, including two lousy debates. He's covered in flop sweat. The last five days, he's looked and sounded like a loser. So he lost.

We are three contests in, and Mr Inevitable isn't getting better at campaigning, he's getting worse. If Willard doesn't have what it takes to win the nomination, he doesn't have what it takes to beat Obama, or to serve as president.

And if that's the case, better for everyone we find out now.

South Carolina has a history of picking the republican nominee and Gingrich won. I think Santorum, Romney and Paul can now all get behind him. Even Nikki Haley who had endorse Romney told him and his supporters that her state will pick the republican nominee, and she would support the winner of her state which is Gingrich.

Except Gurbie, the other 3 in polls get CRUNCHED by Obama. So unless Obama is your man, your point escapes us.

I have to admit that I admire Newt for proposing all of those debates with pres Obama. In Texas, we had to endure Perry REFUSING to do even ONE debate with Bill White, the Dem candidate for governor. I guess that we all know why that was.
