Newt Gingrich: Frankly, not Mitt Romney's biggest supporter.

Listen, I really liked Gingrich, and I even preferred him initally. I do believe he got a bad rap from the media, in the sense that he didn't get preferential press that Romney got. However, part of it is his past and goofy things he did support, that just publically, he should have had the common sense not to suggest- even if they sounded good. I remember him getting a TON of trouble over his idea to open orphanages again. This was in the eye of facing how many kids in poor urban areas, are left to be raised in situations that would create unequal opportunity- in the sense of unstable environment with bad influence, vs. stability and under theory, positive influences. Just a can of worms. I LIKE that he could get both sides of Congress to work together. However, Mitt nailed him at the Florida debate. And I was thinking it reluctantly way before Mitt said it. Newt was going from State to State promising things that we can't afford. The Moon Colony made me shake my head and say to myself, "I can't believe he thinks people are that stupid". Mitt said,(not a direct quote, my paraphrasing) "you can't go from State to State and promise these things with our federal deficit and expect people to believe you". We have that already with Obama. All the broken promises. And the fact is, Solyndra, is Obama's "Moon Colony". Anyone with half a brain would have done simple market research and found out that even his devoted followers were not interested in creating a market for green goods right now. The technology is too expensive. Obama's people didn't buy the stuff, to create demand, and bring the cost down. All I can say is Newt needs to face that he may have not had the media's preference, but he shot himself in the foot.
