So I love getting called by pollsters and the push calls and robocalls.
I got a call here in SC and picked it up and a nice live person asks me if I have a second to listen to a message from....
Obama? Biden? Palin? McCain?
(I voted for McCain in the 2000 Primary and have been on republican lists ever since)
No it was none other than.....
Newt Gringrich!! Really?
Sure I will listen to his pitch for, I assume, John McCain....
Wrong again. Newt goes into how when he was voted into Congress they had a contract with America. How he was the guardian of the taxpayers money.
He then launches into how he opposed the bailout plan and how things will be tough unless congress curbs spending etc etc republican BS and so on and so on.
Then the nice lady come on to speak to me. Wow I said, is Newt already running for President in 2012."yeah I guess" she answered.
Then she asked me if I was for the bailout. "No" I answered (though i am sure for reasons different than Newt) And then she went on how Newt was against the bailout.
I stopped her and told her as a good republican Newt should be ashamed for spending money on this and not to help John McCain. I told her that I would be voting for Barack Obama but since Newt was a turncoat I would not vote for him in 2012 if he ran. I thought it rude and why the Republican Party will loose.(had to not try and laugh)
She was speechless and tried to say how she was not sure if Newt was running for President.
That was fun and it shows how much in trouble the Republican Party is. I think the pundits would love to know Newt is calling about three days before the election.
