Go Newt Go!

Heh heh heh...
Newt Gingrich’s campaign says it will challenge Florida’s delegation to the GOP national convention, and at least one member of the Republican National Committee thinks it has cause. According to party rules, any primary held before April 1 “shall provide for the allocation of delegates on a proportional basis.” Florida’s primary, however, was a winner-take-all contest, so Mitt Romney is currently entitled to all of the state’s 50 delegates.

Because Florida broke the rules by going early, it has lost 50 percent of its original delegates already, as provided by Rule No. 16. But Gingrich’s allies argue this penalty doesn’t absolve the original sin: Florida’s winner-take-all status. On top of losing 50 percent of its delegates, Gingrich’s camp contends that Florida should also reward its remaining delegates on a proportional basis.

For Pig Newton.

Good to see you supporting the cause, S_McG.

Unfortunately, the big one got away.

Go Newt go,

Go by hate, go by bile
go by lies, and shameless guile.
Go by pander, go by screed
Scream and shout until you bleed.

If they had awarded on a proportional basis they wouldn't have broken the rules, right? So why would he expect them to lose the 50% AND give him some of what's left?

Are you suggesting Newt is undeserving of free stuff from suckers?

tigris said...

I am totally willing to be called a sucker if it allows me to give him a free junkpunch.

And when the odds are against him
And there's sleazy work to do
You bet your life Pig Newton
Will see it through.

Go Pig Newton
Go Pig Newton
Go Pig Newton, Go!

LIVE! Saturday at the Coliseum! Tigris vs. Newt cage match. Can Newt defend his branes,? Will his trident of truth prevail over the barbed cast net of Massachusetts feline librulism? The claws! the claws!

Get there early for aimai vs. chuckling Obamney mania!

Thou shalt never scorn a Newt,
Or your del'gate count be moot.
Newt's burn-and-crash,
Is sure to smash
The hopes of Mitt, that empty suit.

Because if there's anybody who represents a commitment to abiding by the rules as they are written and who would NEVER seek advantage outside the rules himself, it's Newt Gingrich.

Riiiiight...

Incidentally you may all excoriate me for never making a Gingrich Granny.

THIS MUST HAPPEN!!! Can her eyes bulge too?

Newt, Newt, he's our man!
If he can't do it then he'll challenge rules he already agreed to!

I was also thinking of adding him to a running Wally Gator.

Oh fuck, now I said it. That is a lot of work, if I can even find a good Wally Gator vid...

Substance McGravitas said...

Hmm, a little Cartoon filter makes him craggy.

mikey said...

Ah, you see, you need to focus.

What do you want to call attention to?

His dishonesty? His megalomania? His sense of entitlement? His hatred of and contempt for journalists?

Once you have narrowed your focus, you can put him in the appropriate dress...

Newt's bluster is that he's about to do hella better against WillardBot in the Banjostan Belt, & well, I have to admit ... I BELIEVE.

He just needs the right theme song.

I think it's fair to say that Brand Newt™ speaks a language Mitt's crowd wouldn't quite get...
