The very best part of all of this now as the Republican campaign arrives at the Florida primary vote on Tuesday is the constant crying of Newt Gingrich, who apparently thought he was the only one in the race allowed to talk smack.
Gingrich cries about everything now, from the mean things Mitt Romney is saying about him, to Romney’s money, to the “Republican establishment” trying to stop him, to Matt Drudge liking Romney better.
Gingrich even cries about new debate rules that prevented spectators from yelling out like they were watching two goons go at it in a hockey fight.
Not only has he turned back into Crying Gingrich, a cartoon character out of his own past, he has Sarah Palin crying along with him, to the point where you worry that the whole thing is about to get sadder than “Pagliacci.” That’s the opera where the guy finds out his wife is cheating on him, but still goes out there as Pagliaccio the clown because, well, the show must go on, tears or not.
The part about the wife doing the cheating might throw Newt off, but the guy’s a real trouper. So the show does go on for him in Florida, though it really did get tiresome over the weekend listening to Gingrich complain about everything that’s happened to him in the Sunshine State except old people in the left lane not turning off their blinkers.

So Gingrich gets propped up the same weekend by Herman Cain and Sarah Palin, about whom Gingrich says, "I would ask her to consider taking a major role in the next administration if I'm President."
Finally, this tear-stained clown makes us laugh.
I thought it a waste of time, and money when he threw his hat in the ring.....Too much baggage, which really Illustrates the arrogance of the republican party.

And both only cry when it about themselves. Neither has any tears for the needy or sick in America. Their attitude is, let them die. They are no use to the Collective, and do not earn their keep, thus, they are expendable. So just let them die.
Both are undeniablygross, pathetic and disgusting.

I actually hope that Newt wins in Florida tomorrow. I want the Mitt/Newt Poo flinging contest to go all the way to the nominating convention. So does Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert....
It beats broadcast television by a long shot.

Well...if they do, then I will find anther mode of entertainment. I am sick to death of looking at their faces at this point. One of them alone is bad enough, and after all these months of seeing their faces and hearing their voices and their endless lies at every turn, I'm a bit burned out on the circus. Newt just makes me physically ill, just looking at him and hearing his voice. He is almost as repugnant to me as the Devil, as he is truly a very evil person, in his heart, in his words and in his deeds. So I can only take so much of him at a time.
Stewart and Colbert I can handle, as they are supposed to be funny, so I'll stick with them for a while and give my gray matter a rest if the whole bunch decides to take it to the wire.

Back to reality - he is taking Adelson's money (and Adelson's wife's) and is hanging on to his 20 minutes of fame so he can continue to hawk books and tapes - nothing more.

#4 - Mon Jan 30, 2012 7:04 PM ESTCome and listen to a story bout a man named Mitt, He had a lot of money, but he wasn't done yet,
He said " the presidency is where I want to be," so he loaded up the "Winnie" and he drove to DC. ......Washington, that is, Lobbyists, The White House!
Well old Newt said " Mitt move away from there, you're using dirty tactics and you're suckin up my air
