Michael Savage On Newt Gingrich

I don't normally post articles from conservative talk show hosts, but I found this one interesting. Not because the host of Savage nation is offering Newt Gingrich ONE MILLION DOLLARS to drop out of the race because he can't win, but because he's the first of the talk show pundits that I know of, that is actually making sense.

While conservative talk show hosts like Limbaugh and Levin continue to live in fantasy land by not vetting Newt Gingrich and all his baggage, Savage has decided to put his conservative MONEY where his mouth is. Copied from Michael Savage's Website:
THE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL FIELD HAS COME DOWN TO TWO CANDIDATES WHO HAVE A REAL CHANCE OF GETTING THE NOMINATION: NEWT GINGRICH AND MITT ROMNEY. WHILE IT’S TRUE THAT ROMNEY IS NOT AS STRONG A CONSERVATIVE AS MANY WOULD LIKE HIM TO BE, THE MOST PRESSING ISSUE BEFORE AMERICA TODAY IS DEFEATING BARACK OBAMA. AND THAT IS SOMETHING NEWT GINGRICH CANNOT DO. FOR WEEKS ON MY SHOW, I HAVE ENUMERATED THE REASONS WHY GINGRICH CANNOT SUCCEED IN AN ELECTION AGAINST OBAMA:
  • WHEN HE WAS SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, GINGRICH FAILED TO DELIVER ON HIS SO-CALLED CONTRACT WITH AMERICA.
  • HE MADE ADS WITH NANCY PELOSI PROMOTING THE FALSE THEORY OF GLOBAL WARMING.
  • HE’S IN FAVOR OF AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS.
  • HE’S TAKEN HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FROM FANNIE MAE AND FREDDIE MAC, TWO OF THE MOST CORRUPT FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS IN HISTORY.
  • HE’S CHEATED ON TWO WIVES AND LEFT BOTH OF THEM WHILE THEY WERE BOTH SERIOUSLY ILL, WHICH WILL DESTROY HIS CHANCES AMONG FEMALE VOTERS.
  • HE CALLED THE REPUBLICAN PLAN TO REFORM MEDICARE “RIGHT WING SOCIAL ENGINEERING.”
  • IN A PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE AGAINST OBAMA, REGARDLESS OF HOW WELL HE DOES, ON TELEVISION, HE WILL COME OFF BADLY COMPARED TO OBAMA AND LOOK LIKE NOTHING MORE THAN WHAT HE IS: A FAT, OLD, WHITE MAN.
NEWT GINRICH IS UNELECTABLE. MITT ROMNEY IS THE ONLY CANDIDATE WITH A CHANCE OF DEFEATING BARACK OBAMA, AND THERE IS NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN THAT FOR FUTURE HEALTH, SAFETY, AND SECURITY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THEREFORE, I AM OFFERING NEWT GINGRICH ONE MILLION DOLLARS TO DROP OUT OF THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE FOR THE SAKE OF THE NATION.
Read the rest HERE.

This probably won't amount to much, but I can't help but wonder how Levin and Limbaugh will react to Savage's criticism of Gingrich by putting this REALITY CHECK out there.

That's interesting, because earlier this year, he said this...

"Romney again is worthless...no leadership whatsoever....he's not been there for us for years...he has no right to run for the presidency."

Obviously, FOR HIM, he's decided to go with the one who can win. GINGRICH CAN'T and Obama is UNACCEPTABLE!

Great stuff Bosman. It takes a true conservative like Michael Savage to get past stage one thinking, and envision the $1 billion Obama campaign shredding Newt to pieces next fall and giving Obama a 2nd term. I think the rest of the GOP voters should take note of why Savage cleverly can see the chess board, and knows what to do three moves ahead.
There is no way Newt can hold up against the Obama machine. Meanwhile, the latest poll of independents shows Romney leading Obama by over 20%. Its time to wake up GOP.

6 reasons why Newt cannot be our nominee. There's more, but these will suffice. No use beating a dead horse.

I wish Ron Paul would put his "serial hypocrisy" ad on nat'l tv.......Newt would be DONE!

GetReal said...

RW - you're right, Savage is pretty much a Romnot, and even he can see past his misgivings for the sake of our future as a nation.

Yes, the RP 'serial hypocrisy' ad would be great for national TV right about now. Anyone hear Rush respond today to Newt's assertions that he's "a Reagan guy"? I was very surprised to hear Rush remind his listeners (almost sounded like he didn't want anyone to hear, actually)that when many in the establishment were declaring that the "Era of Reagan is dead" that Newt was right there with them saying the same thing.

RW:
He said in 2010 that if Newt Gettingrich dot com wins the elections he will leave the country.

"RW - you're right, Savage is pretty much a Romnot, and even he can see past his misgivings for the sake of our future as a nation." And this also illustrates that not all Rom-nots are Gingrichites. In fact many are not. While Mr. Savage might be correct on the fact on this one, it was not the smartest thing for him to say.

I find it interesting that Savage's message was just as loud as his voice. I'm not a fan of his, but I do agree with his message in many cases. Heck, I agree with Rush Limbaugh on many issues, but not all.

The only media I haven't seen truly turn against Newt is FoxNews. Yes, some of their pundits and commentators are letting Newt have it, much to the surprised gazes of the show's hosts, but the other conservative media are putting out the warning signals.

To ignore Newt's baggage and allow him to win the nomination, is to hand the Obama campaign so much baggage for their attack ads, they will think it's Christmas.

Love or hate Mitt Romney; his baggage is much less and of a more particular kind--he is not viewed as conservative enough by some people--or as liberal enough by others. Whatever his other faults are, he is a guy who knows the value of earning a dollar, and has proven the ability to manage things. These are traits that one can use to promote oneself during a campaign where economics is a significant problem facing the country.

Newt is a smart man: he knows how to do things. but he is not a WISE man, for he does not know what not to do.

He will be a great advisor to the Next president. But no one in the world can sleep peacably if Newt is allow to push the nuclear button.
