According to Rasmussen, Obama's favorability ratings have risen to their highest level since June 9, 2011 when the president was still riding the wave of the Bin Laden killing. The trend started at roughly the time when the GOP presidential candidates all went negative. The eleventh commandment be damned.
Newt was the last to jump in the sewer but when he did take the plunge, he splashed as wildly as anyone else. So much for being the elder statesman, the team leader, the Speaker, blah blah blah. I understand Gingrich's frustration at the attacks directed against him in Iowa. But in going negative, the Newtster lost his mojo.
Gingrich should have doubled down on his attacks against Obama and his media toadies. Instead, he attacked Bain Capital, the best attributes of Mitt Romney and the best values of conservatism. He blamed his Nevada loss on Mormons and called Romney a liar. Dohhh.
Cooler heads need to intervene. Romney can the president. Newt can be Secretary of State. Paul can be Secretary of the Treasury (or chairman of the Fed) and Santorum can get his own show on Fox.
Oh, and thank goodness Mr. vulture capitalism went back to Texas. He was a fool. Glad we vetted that guy.
Get back on your game, guys. You all do well when you point out the flaws in the current administration and the cowardice of his butt boys in the media. Axelrod is playing for keeps and the stakes are high. Another $5T (not to mention the off book entitlements) in debt and America will probably go the way of the dodo bird.
Please guys, climb out of the sewer.
