Gingrich PAC: ‘Don’t let liberal Republican establishment pick candidate’
Winning Our Future, the Super PAC acting on behalf of Newt Gingrich, has launched this ad in Iowa – an appeal for the most conservative heart of that state’s GOP:
The eye-popping message:
”Don’t let the liberal Republican establishment pick our candidate.”

Do you have any other unoriginal rocks from Fox Propaganda News Network?

I think it’s obvious that the GOP could run the now-deceased Cheetah of Tarzan fame as their candidate in 2012, and most would agree that voting for a dead chimp would be better than voting for Obama.
Is it any wonder that the same crowd is willing to cast their support to Newt Gingrich, who is only a few clicks down the food chain from the venerable Cheetah?

Please run Cheetah.
I don’t recall any embarrassing situations involving Cheetah in the last few decades….
And The President will still win in a landslide!!

A dead Cheetah is a saner choice than a live Romney!

[...] Jim Galloway took notice of the last line of a new Gingrich ad urging Iowa voters to not “let the liberal Republican establishment pick our candidate.” It’s all depends on where you stand I suppose. [...]

Newest polling data for Iowa shows Ron Paul with a narrow lead over Romney. Newt is trailing by double digits.
FiveThirtyEight.com has Paul with a 56% chance of winning Iowa, Romney at 35% and Newt at 3%.
Iowa as a caucus state has some interesting voter registration quirks which could quickly shift the numbers at the last minute but the monentum for Newt is currently in full retreat. I don’t see the ad above as something that will be particularly effective in reversing that.
I think Newt needs to try and secure a solid 3rd in Iowa. Should his slide continue and he finishes worse (bested by Bachman or Santorum), he will have some money issues heading into SC and Florida and his expected wins there will be much narrower margins than currently anticipated.
Not ready to count Newt out just yet, but the “Cain” bounce appears to have a very limited shelf life.

Cheetah was known for screeching, biting, spanking his noodle and throwing feces at people when he was ticked off.
Come to think of it, very much like many of our human politicians today.

People that vote for Obama are either stupid or just Black Prideful Racists. And sometimes both.

Wouldn’t it be the opposite? The further an object is away from the viewer, the smaller it appears.

A lousy low life POS that engages in name calling to then whine about being called appropriately by name is a phony hypocrite incapable of civil discussions.

And the racist anti-Christian Obama haters always have to rear their ugly heads. Obama is a Luar must have never read any of the Gospels of Christ. Pity the pathetic, delusional racists living among us.

It takes a low life POS to know a low life POS! You must really be smarting from being out thought today that you have to go so low. But then isn’t that what the far right is all about? Sling mud at those who stand up to your twisted take on American Democracy!

Oh, creep, now? You are the one who needs to grow up! You are the one wallowing in the mud and cussing. But then maybe you are one of Newt’s buddies who was at the K Street trough with him for the last ten years, and you’re used to the slime. Does someone pay you what to say the way Newt was paid what to say for the last ten years? Call me all the childish, immature names you want if it makes you feel better for a moment.
