Mitt Romney called himself a “severely conservative” Governor during his speech at CPAC. As this clip shows, even liberals like Anderson Cooper are not fooled by Mitt Romney. I won’t give Cooper too much credit since he missed the most obviously liberal issue of Mitt’s term as Governor: Romneycare.
Newt Gingrich’s speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in 2012. Go to newt.org.
As of 1998, The American Conservative Union gave Newt Gingrich a 90% lifetime conservative rating, Rick Santorum an 83% lifetime conservative rating, and Ron Paul an 88% lifetime conservative rating. So, it is obvious that Newt Gingrich is the real conservative in this race. You can see the ratings for yourself here: House ratings for 1998 and Senate ratings for 1998.
In 1998, Newt Gingrich was in the House in Georgia, Ron Paul was in the House in Texas, and Rick Santorum was in the Senate in Pennsylvania. In 1998, Newt Gingrich had a yearly rating of 100%, Rick Santorum had a rating of 84%, and Ron Paul had 88%. Those figures are interesting because Rick Santorum (84%) claimed that they had a conservative coup to oust Newt Gingrich (100%) in 1998.
It’s incredible to see how many times Mitt Romney has flip-flopped on issues. In fact, there are so many that I’ve created a huge catalogue of Mitt Romney flip-flops that grows larger everyday.
These days, Ann Coulter has come out as a strong supporter of Mitt Romney for president. Virtually every day she is out saying something in support of Mitt: “He’s the most electable.” “He’s the most conservative.” She is becoming more and more like the lying candidate who she supports.
In fact, much like the flip-flopping Mitt Romney, Ann Coulter has flip-flopped on supporting him. In 2008, she was for him. In 2011, she was against him because he would lose. Now, she’s claims that he can win. See for yourself in the videos below. We’ll call this the flip-flop for Mitt Romney campaign.
Ann Coulter now regularly calls Mitt Romney the most conservative candidate. It’s funny that, in 1994 Senate campaign, Mitt Romney said that he “was an independent during the time of Reagan/Bush.” Then, in the 2002 Massachusetts Gubernatorial campaign, Mitt Romney affirmed that “his views are progressive.” Never fear though, Ann Coulter assures us that he’s the most conservative. Sure Ann, whatever you say.
Ann Coulter CPAC 2008: “I think he is our best candidate.”
Ann Coulter CPAC 2011: “If we don’t run Chris Christie, Romney will be the nominee, and we’ll lose.”
Ann Coulter now says that Mitt Romney can win.
Not only are conservatives not going to vote for Mitt Romney, if he becomes the nominee, but they are looking to form a new party. Pretty much everything this Newt supporter, Flora Reece, says is agreed upon among Newt’s supporters. We need a new party. Could this be the time for an authentic third party, possibly a TEA Party? Has the revolution begun?
