Posted at 3:14pm on Apr. 16, 2007 Eyes on September
By DraftNewt
So, Newt, are we still on for September?
I should jolly well hope so!
Looking at some of the polling over the Easter break, I can’t help but notice the possibility that Rudy Giuliani’s lead at the top of the Republican pack is slipping. As you’ll read from any analysis, Fred Thompson’s surge is eating into Rudy’s vote. On the other side, Mitt Romney is ploughing into McCain’s lead. Whether this is transference (McCain has been slipping in the polls for a while) or genuine conversion is debatable. The interesting analysis for Newt, and we supporters, is that chaos reigns supreme.

Fred Thompson not far behind the pack. The poll was conducted April 9-10.

Posted at 12:33pm on Apr. 2, 2007 On Iran, Newt speaks for Britain!
By DraftNewt
As a British patriot watching Newt's video on how to get our British servicemen back, it is, in short, a moving statement from a man who, I am sure as ever, should be President. It’s clear he has a strategy to deal with the Iranians that our nincompoop Prime Minister Blair hasn’t even countenanced – or he would have done it by now.
Our poisonous ‘partners’ in the EU refuse to implement trade sanctions, giving us another reason why Britain should leave the EU. The UN should go to the Wizard of Oz to ask for some balls because it’s certainly in need of something to help it stand up to Iran. I still can't believe that it won’t even call for the immediate release of our servicemen, despite Iran taking them from international waters, breaking any number of international laws. If it couldn't get any worse, our Prime Minister is too terrified of blemishing his legacy to take on the lawless Iranians, shirking his role as a statesman determined, like most conservatives, to win the war on terror. The only one who seems to have spoken out to get British troops back is Newt Gingrich!

Posted at 12:44pm on Apr. 1, 2007 Who-mentum
By DraftNewt
Momentum is one of the most dangerous forces in politics. Along with honesty, clarity and brevity, momentum can make or break a candidacy. The best thing about it, which sets it apart from the other ‘detrimental’ forces in modern politics, is that the candidate struck down by momentum has no power over it. Just muttering an off the cuff remark that you ‘may’ enter a race or are ‘thinking’ about it is enough to open the Pandora’s Box of electoral politics.

Posted at 10:00pm on Mar. 24, 2007 A Briton for Newt, the Thatcherite!
By DraftNewt
Too many conservatives in the UK, far too many indeed, want the Conservative Party to distance itself from the Republican Party. These poor excuses for conservatives, political snobs often from liberal, elitist circles that scoff at traditionally conservative values of ‘faith, family and flag’, dislike the Republicans.
That Republicans stand up for God, for traditional values, for a united nation, for a constitution, to them, is wrong, backward and, to coin their phrase, ‘illiberal’. Forever the paternalists, they want to continuously govern at any cost. They don’t care if they govern as liberals; the important thing is that they are in charge. In every conservative’s worst nightmare – British conservative leaders are all too ready to sacrifice principle for power.
