I like Newt. I know that he isn't the perfect person. I know about his affairs. I know that he was under an ethics investigation in the 90's. I also know he was found innocent of all charges. I know that he tells things like they are. Some people call it unpredictable. I call it real. I just don't get what is so wrong with Newt.
I think people are missing the big picture. I have many, many friends who feel that Mitt Romney is the only one who can beat Obama. They don't like Romney but they like Obama less. That is a terrible way to think. Romney is the loser from the 2008. Why would we want the loser to represent us? I'm really starting to feel that it's a matter of money not an election of who has the best ideas or vision for the future.
What can Mitt Romney offer? He is vanilla on all issues. He doesn't seem to have a single strong opinion about anything. What bothers me the very most is that during one of the debates Rick Santorum was bashing Romney on RomneyCare. Do you know how Mitt Romney responded? It's nothing to get angry about. WHAT!? It's nothing to get angry about? I think it's something to get very angry about. ObamaCare is something that the people didn't want. It's more spending that we can't afford and probably one of the biggest issues to Republicans. We don't want it. How can the Republican party support a candidate who basically passed the same mandate in his state. And he still supports it!
So I started thinking, if Romney is the nominee what is going to happen. Let's just say that he is elected president. Do you know what we would be getting? Another Bush. Someone who doesn't represent what the Republican party stands for. Then after 4 years all the liberals will point their fingers and say "Look what happened. We voted in a Republican and look what happened? Nothing has changed." It won't changed and do you know why? No one really wants Romney as president! He the great compromise that both parties always talk about. He is the vanilla ice cream of presidential candidates. He is the perfect politician. He tries to say all the right things. He has the money and the connections. In the end, after 4, or possibly 8 years, of President Romney the Democrats will talk about how they gave a Republican a chance and the Republicans will say that they really didn't want him but he was the only one who could beat Obama. WTF!? Why does it have to be that way?
Personally I feel like Newt Gingrich has some really incredible ideas. It is so refreshing to hear someone speak with such passion about the USA. He wants to make the country great and he has realistic solutions to achieve those goals. Although I agree with him on the end goals I don't always agree on the path he would take to get there. However, I think this out of the box thinking is the same type of attitude that made our country great in the first place.
Gingrich is witty, educated, and knows more about the history of this country than most people. He is proud to be an American and I think he has the strength and balance to fix what's wrong with this country. He will bring government spending down and help get more people off welfare. He will repeal ObamaCare and find a solution to the illegal immigration problem. He has a big vision for the country and I think that type of thinking is just what we all need.
Why would a person vote for Obama over Gingrich?
The polls are showing that Obama would beat Gingrich. But why would a person vote for Obama? My generation, and those younger than me, want to be taken care of. They no longer feel like they shouldn't have to be responsible for anything. I went over all the people I know on some kind of government assistance. Out of all the people I know only one couple did anything to better themselves and get off the assistance. The other ones are only working part time or end up having more children. I think that right there shows that our entitlement program is broken.
More people are on food stamps now and what happens? The price of food goes up. So those who are hard working and trying to get by have to pay more for food.
The minimum wage goes up and what happened? All those people on salary are now making less money because they don't get raise but inflation drives the prices of everything else up.
Do you know why we are having a housing crisis? Loan companies were required to give loans to people who couldn't afford them. Why would they do that? Yes, it's a nice thought to help someone get a house but why was the government involved? Why are they involved now? If you lose your house, then you lose your house and you need to start over. It sucks but its reality. There is no government funded program to help you refinance. Who in the world would think that is a good idea? These people are adults. If they have to learn the hard way then so be it. That is life.
Just a few more points.
Obama is just as much white as he is black and if you are voting for him just because he is black it makes you the racist.
Financial advisor Dave Ramsey hates Obama. If you listen to his show then you would know this. If you are on the Dave Ramsey plan then you should be voted against Obama on any of his economic ideas which means you will be voting for the Republican nominee.
That is all.
