GOP Insane If They Nominate Newt or Romney

It is my considered opinion that if the GOP nominates either Romney or Newt to run against Obama, they are absolutely crazy.

Look, we have three wonderful issues that are fair game for whoever the candidate is. Those three issues are TARP, ObamaCare, and the stimulus. With either Romney or Newt, we lose two of those issues. Why? Because both Romney and Newt supported TARP, and both candidates are on the record as being in favor of a government-run "solution" to our health care problems that include an individual mandate! Romney actually imposed such a system on his state when he was Governor, and his plan was used as the blueprint for ObamaCare. With Romney as the nominee, we lose what is potentially THE major issue of the race!

But Newt isn't any better. He was expressing support for an individual mandate as recently as a few months ago... and that sort of eviscerates any attempt by Newt to attack ObamaCare in any way, shape or form. And Newt has additional baggage that he is voluntarily creating, baggage that will be easy for even Obama to attack. I'm speaking of Newt's insane proposition to arrest and impeach any judges that issue rulings with which Congress and the President disagree. Good heavens, has the man even BOTHERED to read the Constitution? What he wants to do is AT LEAST as bad as approving of indefinite imprisonment without trial for US citizens living in the United States... and that's something that was recently passed by both Democrats and Republicans, with Obama likely to sign the dumb thing.

With either of these two men as candidates, we lose some pretty huge issues that could otherwise have been used against Obama during the election. Newt and Romney have Z E R O credibility on these issues, because it's well known that they have SUPPORTED THEM!

I am not arguing in favor of any particular candidate, here. I am simply pointing out what we LOSE by choosing either of these two men for our candidate. We would be crazy to do so.
