A new Rasmussen poll show Newt Gingrich beating Obama with Likely Voters.
The Newt Gingrich surge has moved him to the top of the polls in Iowa, big gains in New Hampshire and now a two-point edge over President Obama in a hypothetical general election match-up.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely Voters finds Gingrich attracting 45% of the vote while President Obama earns support from 43%. Six percent (6%) prefer some other candidate, and six percent (6%) are undecided.
And for those of you still on the fence, here’s 11 reasons why Newt will be the GOP nominee.

Fat dog beats O
47% want to eat the dog
Woof!!!!
Newt 2012! I have made up my mind, with Christie or Rubio as the VP
Newt gets destroyed by Obama in the general election. Newt has no charisma, no good will, lots of baggage considering an electorate which spends more time worrying about how to vote for American Idol than who should be president.
If you want elect-ability the best bet is Romney. If you want a slim chance of winning but at least a fiscal conservative you go with Ron Paul.
Do you think that the big economic news today, right before Christmas, right before the campaign season is coincidence? Wall street has appropriately chastised Obama and now they can help him win. Better the dupe you already control than the one you don’t yet control.
A pile of doggy doo doo has more charisma than Newt and bams combined. A pile of doggy doo doo will beat bams in 2012.
Now if we could just find a pile of doggy doo doo interested in being potus.
You might want to look at Christie’s recent ban on hydraulic fracturing before getting too excited about him. It was a craven submission to the anti-drilling crowd.
yeah christie is OUT
Amazona,
As you know I’m still not sold on Gingrich and may never be. Regardless of that all of the candidates currently in the Republican race are infinitely superior to the dimocrats.
I’m also not convinced that Obama is going to run; no candidate that was serious about running for president would be as detached and aloof as Obama. He didn’t even bother to make a show of supporting the Super Committee; he’s made a spectacle of himself with conspicuous consumption at taxpayer expense; he has made no effort to muzzle the First Mooch in her daily hypocrisies and his class-warfare has not been a successful strategy for a national politician in years. Notice I wrote “successful” since dimocrats still play this with regularity but the poor results indicate that it’s a strategy best left to subordinates and not heralded from the party head.
Some have proffered that the president’s boorish behavior is that he is so convinced of his own infallibility he doesn’t believe that he needs to groom for the interview; he believes he’s entitled to the job so why try to impress anyone? He has his loyal brain-dead minions (like our trolls) that believe they can win by demonstrating who the biggest ass is. (Notice how “james” entirely misses the fact that Rasmussen is the most current poll?)
Oh, and I just love the George HW “Bush had more charisma than …” Really? George HW Bush demonstrated charisma ??? Oh, and Nixon was a terribly charismatic fellow as well! And carter and LBJ, people just couldn’t stay away when George and Jimmah and Dick and Lyndon were at a party! This ain’t a s t r e a c h at all, is it?
Count of stupidity,
. (Notice how “james” entirely misses the fact that Rasmussen is the most current poll?)
notice how you forget to mention that the results are AVERAGED and that’s what the table is showing. you forget to mention that the rasmussen poll is of LIKELY voters, NOT registered voters.
I take it that you will stay home if Romney wins the nomination as he is bound to do….??? At least have a little dignity like GMB does and stick to your beliefs….if you have any.
good G*d, you have got to be the stupidest person in the world; the thread is titled; Newt Beats Obama in New Poll
Notice how “james” misses that Rasmussen is the newest poll, and then maks a complete ass of himself, again.
notice how I stated that the Rasmussen poll is likely voters while the OTHER polls are Registered voters.
seriously, quit now, and run for the hills….you’re making an ass of yourself.
Well, dolf, the left-leaning lemmings may go for charisma two times in a row, but I wouldn’t bet on fooling as many people as got suckered in last time by fluff and platitudes.
And Barry’s so-called ‘charisma’ has proved to be as much an illusion, or fabrication, as his much-vaunted eloquence. Both are wearing thin, with the reality, charisma-wise, of an arrogant, petulant, surly, manchild with a massive sense of entitlement and an overblown ego.
Obama had more charisma than McCain.
Bush had more charisma than Gore or Kerrey.
Clinton had more charisma Bush Sr. or Dole.
Bush Sr. had more charisma than Dukakis.
Reagan had more charisma than Carter or Mondale.
Arguably, Carter had more charisma than Ford.
I see a trend.
baldoek
Obama had more charisma than McCain.
HOG WASH !!!!
O had a drooling MSM, mind numbed robot, looters & takers and 99% of the “BLACK VOTE” (see mind numbed robots) .
mcLame was a has been, washed up RINO. millions stayed home….
baldork
Clinton had more charisma Bush Sr. or Dole.
HOG WASH….AGAIN………KKKlintoon was elected by the LEAST percentage of votes ever in the history of the US.
The NUTCASE perot ran as a third party and pulled huge percentages away from GHWB giving the WH to the lying, disbarred, adulterer, molester, cheating, impeached, fined pervert.

check out this link….looks like Rasmussen is the outlier….and what Poll does Libbs choose…..drum roll…….THE OUTLIER!!!!
Obama will run over any candidate not named Romney…..Romney, he will just beat by a decent margin…same as he beat McCain perhaps.
barky is toast. Burnt toast. Joe choo choo has a better chance of being elected class clown of Mz. Browns 2nd grade class at ps 39 than he does of getting reelected.
Can’t wait to see who the repub establishment wants though. My guess is Romney Mitt but I think Newt is acceptable to them. After all, you want establishment repub combined with no back bone Newt is your go to guy.
FORE!!! When does round 89 begin? Or does that have to wait until after the next vacation?
wait
the Mooch, kids and the posse have to see the rest of the world on OPM.
minus buddy er reggie Loooove the regime’s “BODY MAN” ( ahem!!)
I still think that there is time for one more flavor of the month. Who could it be? Think my gal Michelle has pretty much tossed it in and is angling for a vp slot. Probably Romney Mitt’s if you look at the way she has been attacking his opposition lately.
Santorum? Very outside chance. Huntsman? Only if Romney Mitt falls over dead and the D.C. establishment needs a replacement. Perry make a comeback? I think he overdosed on tardasil. LOL!
The Cain train derailed big time and is awaiting the wrecker to put it back on the tracks. I know, It is so obvious, Thaddeaus McCotter.
Yes McCotter 2012!
McCotter who?:
mittens/michelle = mcLame/palin redux UGH!!
right now it is ANYBODY BUT Obummer or hitlery.
SADLY…..right now it is ANYBODY BUT Obummer or hitlery.
fixed
yeah Cain is burned toast.
The 2012 prsidential election is up to the repubs to lose. We got a donky whose approval ratings are lower than jimmuh could imagine and unemployment hovery around 9-10%
The hope is gone and change was for the worse. We have a dailey reminder of what the average bams voter is and wants every time you read a story about the ows crowd.
This should be a shoe in for the repubs. This shouldn’t even be a fight but it will be. The repubs could not find anyone better than a serial lier or a serial adulturer?
GMB
we could and did but the communist left, dontRAT party (see communist left) gangster unions, anarchists MSM (see all above) all but destroyed them with scorched earth policies on their personal lives.
They left the one man they wanted alone for now, but will reign hate and venom upon him during the election.
(think Palin)
yet the slime ball, druggie, sodomite, commie gets a pass.
welcome to AmeriKa.
Which begs the question, why do we allow the opposition to define our candidates. Why are we playing thier game? Whats in it for us?
We are going to let the donkyrats destroy this country because idiots like mika and rosanne say bad things about us?
No wonder the repubs are in such sad shape.
Got 3 bucks to waste? The mooch and barky want it. Maybe you even get to sit down and eat some arugula with them. LOL!

OR
his looting illegal aunt living on OPM = US TAX payers (not OWS looters)

I just might donate $3.00 to see the look on barry and the Mooches faces.
He brought WHOOOOOOO?
Drudge
GINGRICH 45 OBAMA 43…
Amazona,
I don’t know the reason Christie banned fracking in NJ, but I would be surprised if it was kow towing to a special interest group. I would like to hear his reasons though, and then would like to show him what’s going on in ND. Outside of that, I still haven’t heard any plausible reason why anyone would vote for Obama again. Like Count said, Obama seems so detached lately, that I sometime wonders if he even cares. I would still like to hear from Obama, or one of his minions, on what his plan is for a second term, or does policy matter anymore in liberal circles.
barkys plan for a second term.
1. Golf. As much as possible.
2. Vacations. As many as possible.
3. Spend OPM. As much as possible.
There ya go. The 2012 donkyrat platform in on tidy sound bite. 🙂
Forgot about the 1700 calorie hamburgers. barky might want to buy a few more of those on the tax payers dime. He seems to be having a problem keeping his weight up. He is looking pretty guant nowdays.
I think you nailed it
Obama embarrasses himself again:
In a press conference this evening, the president referred in stumbling fashion to the “English Embassy” in Iran instead of the British Embassy.
Don’t worry yourself about it there. At the “English” embassy they all speak “austrian” so they will be able to translate. If they can’t then it’s a onw way trip back to one of the 57 states on the intercontinental railroad with Joe “choo choo” Biden as the head conductor.
GMB
choo choo, to man in wheel chair……..“stand up so we can see you” Woooooo Wooooooo train crash a comin.
Rumor has it the choo choo used to be a stage maniguin on that old laugh in tv show? Anybody know anything about that?
That’s not fair Cluster, Obama’s grandfather liberated the English Embassy during WWII.
Let’s not forget that Obama’s aunt and uncle are here illegally. And doesn’t it warm your heart how the Obama’s have welcomed those two in their home.
cluster
dont forget the Mooches mother is living there on OPM also, and gets to partake on all the vacations, free food, and every thing else, nice gig eh?……Grifters R us
This one could get interesting
The Obama Administration has abruptly sealed court records containing alarming details of how Mexican drug smugglers murdered a U.S. Border patrol agent with a gun connected to a failed federal experiment that allowed firearms to be smuggled into Mexico.
‘Stop This’: Eric Holder Scolds Reporter for Asking About Calls for His Resignation
“You guys are behind it.”
If fast and furious had been a Dubya operation, do you all suppose that Thomas and all his sock puppets would be screaming for impeachment by now?
The liberal outcry would be deafening had this been W’s blunder.
hollering for his arrest and conviction….Oh wait
communism and demographics trump all.
John Cornyn Makes AG Holder Squash Fast And Furious “Bush Did It Too” Argument.
Everyone else seems to understand “Bush did it too” is pure crap.
And, speaking of crap; Wally’s brain ….
Already proven false $hit for Brains!
So far, 52 members of congress have called for ag holder to resign. Nothing will come of it but it would would be interesting to see what the Newt admistration would do after the fact. Does anyone think Newt would have the balls to pursue charges against holder and even bams after he looses the next election?
No
and neither will any one else.
waterboarding = Horrific crime,
targeting & Killing US citizens = Ho Hum
Mao must be soooo proud of this regime.
yes, I remember when the libs were screaming that terrorists were not being tried in a court of law nor were they given their civil rights.
Then, obAMATEUR killed a US citizen in an airstrike not too long ago.
We were met with joy and jubilation by these same liberals! It is amazing how attitudes change depending on who is in the White House.
Just like GITMO is still open.
we are still in Iran and Afghanistan
the Patriot Act has been renewed.
etc etc etc
Golly gee whiz, this Obama fellow sounds awful, from all the comments I see here he must be reviled. I bet all you big manly man conservatives are brave enough to put your money where your mouth is huh? According to all of you he has spent all of his time on vacation with his unattractive wife who eats too much and spends all the country’s money on fancies and whatnot. Unless that isn’t really true and you all happen to be living in a moronic echo chamber not connected with reality. I would put a few dollars on Obama to win any of you tough guy conservatives do the same?
Whats the matter Thomas? You still upset that bwany is retiring? 🙂 Don’t worry, I am sure mass will send someone even more repugnant to take his place.
Are you up to the task? 😛
I am sure mass will send someone even more repugnant
I thought O was already a senator?
OOH congress…….
it could be a good follow up for 2012,
rains made MILLIONS and MILLIONS at freddi/fanni.
buddy Love next head of freddi/fanni ?
“waterboarding = Horrific crime,
targeting & Killing US citizens = Ho Hum
Mao must be soooo proud of this regime.”
Yes remember when Mao banned water boarding and then targeted US citizens for drone airstrikes? You all remember that right? LOL
the dark mao, not the yellow
“According to a tweet from NBC News’ Jamie Novogrod, Bachmann responded to the recent raiding of the British embassy in Iran, by saying that if she was President, she would close down the U.S. embassy there.
There’s just one problem: The U.S. has not had an embassy in Iran ever since the Iranian hostage crisis, when revolutionaries from the budding Islamic state held 52 Americans for 444 days.”
Yes how will Obama beat this pile of Macarthur Genius Grant nominees?
a Tweet?
bird brain leftys “tweet” chirp is right.
Ill bet Michelle said that before taking her breathalyzer in the 57th state located in asia, hawaii.
yup geniuses all right.
a three-letter word: jobs. J-O-B-S, jobs.” –Joe Biden, Athens, Ohio, Oct. 15, 2008
Face it Thomas. If barky and the choo choo were repubs, you would be going to town. 🙂
Govenor Tardasil 2012!!
According to a “tweet” from GMNC Nobody cares!!! Can you translate that in austrian for us please?
stand up first so we can see you…..
I think I’m a Newtster!?!
im an oldster
LOLzer!!
I don’t care how many non existant embassies my gal Michelle wants to close down. If she is still in the race when the primaries reach Illinois in march, she’s getting my vote.
The Bach(super)mom 2012!!!
mine and Cains in Fla.
Let’s close the North Vietnamese Embassy whilst we’re at it Michelle.
What a moran.
Someone please tell me. With boener the chief stooge in charge of the repubs there is no need for the donkyrats at all is there?
http://politics.blogs.foxnews.com/2011/11/30/road-averting-christmas-time-government-shutdown-may-exclude-conservatives-0
This is one of ours? LOL fricken LOL
GMB,
Boehner is doing what any adult, rational moderate GOP member does….COMPROMISE and move the country forward. It’s about time he ignored the rookies in the house GOP caucus, they are a cancer to our society.
On another note, what does it mean when you say one of ours? Are you claiming that you are more of an American than me? or Boehner? or anyone else who disagrees with you?
I’d like an explanation on that egotistical point.
What was meant that boener casts himself as a conservative republican. He is not. Compromise when you lock one idealogical wing out of negotiations? LOL
You are stretching again.
on the contrary. Boehners record speaks for itself.
and he is locking out the teaparty wing because they aren’t interested in compromising.
how many times have YOU said the time for compromise is over? well that’s exactly why Boehner decided to “lock” them out. to me, its more like putting them in timeout and teaching them who is a rookie, and who is the speaker!
If you say so Thomas.
Rule 406. 🙂
Who’s the real Newt? The guy talking now or the guy talking then?
http://www.nationalreview.com/campaign-spot/284472/newt-gingrich-said-iwhati
are you planning on voting in the general election GMB?
I have voted in every election since I turned 18. That does not mean I have cast a ballot for every office though. Both in 2004 and 2008 I skipped the presidential ballots and will do so again if the the repubs nominate another progressive. Never again will I vote for the lesser of two evils as they say and I do not expect anyone else to do so.
Which has caused me just a little bit of trouble with a couple of other so called conservatives on this blog. Unlike you, I attack repubs and donkyrats almost equally here. I have yet to see you say anything bad about a donkyrat. Despite loads of evidence of cronyism, corruption, and outright criminality, the donks get a pass in your book.
Despite 8 years of GWB being called every name in the book, you get outraged when bams is called Ochimpy.
Yes, I do plan plan on voting in 2012. And yes I will probably skip the presidential slot once again. Unless either Ron Paul or Michelle Bachman is on the ballot. Or maybe the conservatives can hold the repub convention hostage and broker a true conservative like Sarah Palin or Scott Walker as the candidate.
Here I agree and disagree as I have voted ever since I turned 18 but I will take the lesser of two evils and try to get any advantage in the House and Senate to make the PotUS lean towards my direction.
The thing I do not understand is why everyone thinks Conservatives need to compromise to get elected as it is not the whishy-washy “Independents” that elects people based on moderate or centralized beliefs–it is the positions of the candidates that do not try to be something to everyone–those that actually believe in what they say.
Here is a good read by someone I really like & trust in this arena–Thomas Sowell: http://rightwingnews.com/column-2/lessons-of-history/
I can not bring myself to vote Ron Paul (but he would be great in dismantling the Fed) and I really hope Cain is not toast after a scorched earth series of attacks (with the first 4 directly linked to Axelrod and the last with a track record of this kind of attacks) because Cain and/or Bachman are the two in the race I am hoping survive. That and wondering if Palin would join back in.
DB
Cain is burned toast, and Bachman is poling @ 3% so not a chance.
which is sad.
the marxist press is indeed a dangerous lot.
