Sarah Palin and Michelle Malkin are on opposite sides of the GOP Presidential Primary at the moment.  In an amazing split, Palin is coming to the defense of Newt Gingrich, while Michelle Malkin challenges Palin for suggesting that “The Establishment” is the only force opposing Newt Gingrich’s candidacy.  The Kitchen Cabinet?  We believe every woman decides for herself. The concentration of The Cabinet is squarely, singularly, focused on Barack Obama.  The candidate who possesses skills and character who can defeat Barack Obama…is OUR candidate.

Supporters of Newt Gingrich, who have loved his debate brilliance, are about to have to endure some heartbreak.  Gingrich, always good on his feet, has had a career equally rich in bad judgment and dangerous rhetoric.  Four days before the Florida Primary “Gingrich-flight” has begun.

Imagine if George Washington was added to the field in the Florida/CNN GOP Presidential debate.

Would James Carville find him to have a “real grasp” of the issues?  A responsible vision of the country’s future?  In the “pre-game” and “post-game” analysis of every word he spoke or misspoke,  would the revered Father of our County measure up in energy, personality, command of the stage and bear up well under the lights?

Today, former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, doesn’t mince words as he steps forward to speak about his former colleague, Newt Gingrich.   One of the most respected concensus-builders in the U.S. Senate, Dole does not often speak publicly.  Dole worked with Gingrich throughout his leadership career, and even arranged a $150,000 loan for him to help pay his ethics fine. You decide if this is a Washington insider trying to keep Gingrich out, or a warning that not everyone who wishes to be re-elected to public office…should be.
