2012 Newt Gingrich Doesn't "Particularly Dislike Mitt as a Person"

Posted by Paul Constant on Fri, Aug 10, 2012 at 8:04 AM

Add this to the stack of glowing Romney endorsements:

Man, nobody likes this guy.

"I'm a well-wisher, in that I don't wish you any SPECIFIC harm."

Yeah, but who would want a Gingrich endorsement, anyway? Two uglies don't make a pretty.

Newt is just there to rile up the rural racist segment of the base with his collection of "I'm not saying the word 'nigger' because that's racist, but I mean niggers and the nigger president." code words.

And since Newt hates anyone who doesn't attempt to bring to life that shriveled lump of flesh tucked away somewhere around the overhang and the chafing, it's hard for him to speak well of Mittens.

Also, Romney is much better at being a crook than him. Jealousy must eat at the back of his eyes.

@2 My thoughts exactly. I would consider it a badge of honor for Newt Gingrich to hate my fucking guts.

Well, that's not exactly a ringing endorsement. But then, how much is Newt Gingrich's endorsement really worth?

@1,4: Yes, one of my favorite Simpsons quotes ever.

I said this about someone and they recently tried to hug me and I brushed them away. If you're at a point in the relationship where a handshake is too much someone feels QUITE disrespected as it relates to them being human.
