Newt's frontrunner status proves that most of today's Republicans have zero principles. They will vote for any scumbag as long as they are not a Democrat.
Maybe a conservative Republican can explain to me how Newt fits in with the supposed values of their party, particularly the Teapublicans.
1. Social conservative (family values) - This really needs no explanation. Newt protects the sanctity of marriage one affair and divorce at a time.
2. Lobbyists/Special Interest politics - Newt is the epitome of the sleazeball cash for favors politician. The scandals with Fannie Mae and the health care industry are just the tip of the iceberg. He practically invented the current "highest bidder" legislative process.
3. Disdain for lifelong politicians and Washington politics (the Palin Real Americans remember) - Newt is the very definition of an inside the beltway Washington insider. When he is not holding or running for public office, he makes a ton of money lobbying others that are for whatever special interest writes the largest check.
Please tell me why any Tea Party type person would vote for an insider, sleazeball adulterous scumbag like Newt Gingrich?
Newt was cleared of the charges, why don't you mention that part?
Where do you get your information from the Onion? Really, I mean where do you guys come up with this stuff. The IRS cleared him of IRS fraud. He was still found guilty of ethics violations and had to pay the 300,000 fine. It was a bipartisan committee that found him guilty. Not to mention the fact that he admitted guilt.

Not only is Newt a scumbag with the women. He is also an unethical politician. He has lied and admitted to lieing. His own party rebuked him and cast him like old garbage. People seem to have short term memory problems.
"The House voted overwhelmingly yesterday to reprimand House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) and order him to pay an unprecedented $300,000 penalty, the first time in the House's 208-year history it has disciplined a speaker for ethical wrongdoing.
The ethics case and its resolution leave Gingrich with little leeway for future personal controversies, House Republicans said. Exactly one month before yesterday's vote, Gingrich admitted that he brought discredit to the House and broke its rules by failing to ensure that financing for two projects would not violate federal tax law and by giving the House ethics committee false information.
"Newt has done some things that have embarrassed House Republicans and embarrassed the House," said Rep. Peter Hoekstra (R-Mich.). "If [the voters] see more of that, they will question our judgment."
LOL. San Fran Nan didn't forget and announced to the world she hadn't and would turn over some top secret info she and her committee had dug up. She just forgot that would have been an ethics violation too so shut her big trap. What a pack of idiots we have running this country.

It must really **** you off that (in your mind) Newt is guilty of all this bad stuff ... but no one cares and Newt keeps climbing the polls ...
