| Gingrich endorsed by Cain |
| 2012-01-30 |
| Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich ...former Speaker of the House, author of the Contract with America. Gingrich gave the country welfare reform and a balanced budget and the Publicans a landslide House victory in 1994. On the downside, he has a roving eye and a loose fly, he's opinionated, and he's abrasive despite his ability to work with the other side of the political aisle... won the endorsement of Herman Cain ...the personable but seemingly horny former Godfather's Pizza CEO who coulda been a contenda... on Saturday, the only black candidate who took part in the Republican race. "It is time for conservatives and Republicans to refocus their attention on the ultimate mission of defeating President B.O.," Mr Cain said, introducing Gingrich at a Republican dinner in West Palm Beach, Florida. "I believe Speaker Gingrich is the bold leader we need to accomplish this mission." Both Mr Gingrich and Mr Cain, a former pizza magnate, hail from the southern state of Georgia and they have known each other for years. Mr Cain dropped out of the race in December, after several women accused him of improper sexual advances. Meanwhile, ...back at the secret hideout, Scarface Al sneeringly put his proposition to little Nell... with only two days left before a crucial Florida primary, US Republican presidential candidates square off on television talk shows Sunday, trying to secure support from key constituencies and filling the airwaves with hard-hitting campaign ads. Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum and Ron Paul scheduled TV appearances today while frontrunner Mitt Romney ...whose real first name is actually, no kidding, Willard, was governor of Massachussetts and is currently the front-runner for president on the Publican ticket. He is the son of the former governor of Michigan, George Romney, who himself ran for president after saving American Motors from failure, though not permanently. Romney's foot is in an ideological bucket because of Romneycare, a state-level experiment that should have been a warning against Obamacare if anyone had been paying attention. Romney's charisma is best defined as soporific, which is probably why he is leading the Publican field... tried to kill off top rival Gingrich's campaign by unleashing a campaign ad state-wide. Mr Romney -- leading handily in the polls -- sought to sweep away the largest obstacle to him winning the party nomination, hitting Gingrich over past ethics violations and dramatically calling into question his integrity. After a feisty debate performance on Thursday, Mr Romney is in the ascendancy in Florida with just three days to go before Tuesday's primary. According to poll averages, the former governor of Massachusetts and multimillionaire venture capitalist leads in the sprawling Sunshine state with 39 per cent against 31 per cent for Mr Gingrich, the former House of Representatives speaker. |

| #1 They have a lot in common in the philandering department. Billy Jeff Clinton ought to endorse him too. |
