It's speculation, but worth thinking about:


I think about it everyday. I see it happening. I write about it. I speak out about it as do you and many others.

There is a thing called momentum and right now O has it. It is going to take an enormous push back to stop that momentum.

Unfortunately, the tea party and the elected tea party candidates have never begun to fight. They said they would fight but haven't. Recall when Rick Perry came out swinging. Folks rallied to him quickly because he said he is a fighter. He pooped out quickly. Americans know this is a fight. They are looking for a fighter.

Gingrich has something Perry and the others lack. Gingrich has displayed his fighting qualities and it is working for him. The vote yesterday proved that. It is working because Gingrich has excellent strategic awareness and outstanding tactical prowess.

The DNC's and MSM's lack of situational awareness actually helped Gingrich. Prior to the vote they did not understand what Americans seek in a leader now and they still may not get it. Their attacks helped prove that Gingrich has faced adversity on every level of life and always fought his way to favorable results. The more fights the DNC and MSM prove Gingrich was in previously, the more people will love him. It may seem counter-intuitive, but it is how it is.

It will be a stark contrast. Prissy Obama offers none of that.

Many Americans know they need a fighter. So far only one fighter with a long history of winning showed up. Fortunately he is doing well.

Take a close look at Gingrich's features, his style, his wisdom and his wit. Give Gingrich a bowler hat, a cigar and a vest and you have a potential new Winston Churchill who once said, "You have enemies? Good. That means you have stood up for something in your life."

Churchill also said, " Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the Gospel of envy. I think Gingrich understands these things on a practical level.

When John King and CNN tried to start a fight with Newt, they succeeded. Newt obliged, accepted the challenge, and cleaned their collective clocks right there in their own house. The more King spoke in those first 5 minutes, the more Newt hammered him and CNN. I don't think King or CNN will ever be the same.

We have one other politician on the national level with similar fighting skills. His name is Allen West. I have great hopes for him.
