Romney camp mocks Gingrich as a “Cry Baby”


Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich on Tuesday made it clear he’s unhappy that the audience in Monday night’s GOP debate was barred from clapping or cheering.

It may be a fair enough complaint from the former speaker — audience participation has helped him in the past — but his rival Mitt Romney is nevertheless mocking him as a “cry baby.”

In an appearance of Fox News Tuesday morning, Gingrich said he wished he had protested when NBC debate moderator Brian Williams asked the audience to hold their applause.

“I think it’s wrong,” Mr. Gingrich said, “And I think he took them out of it because the media is terrified that the audience is going to side with the candidates against the media, which is what they’ve done in every debate.”

    Their brawl doesn't matter. President Obama makes a great speech and lays out the strong case for re-election and four more years. He'll be out on the hustings and every where he'll go there will be record crowds. Just wait and see.

    • Airangel

      I just listened to his pretty speech..same thing as 3 years ago…all talk…I would like to see much of what he said come true but actions speak louder than words and his actions in the past 3 years has told me not to TRUST him as far as I can throw him…his is a silver forked tongue liar and the masses fall for it even though he has a dismal record. He didn't say anything about cutting spending…only about more spending on his programs, nothing about Illegal Immigration only about Amnesty.

    Well, Jinny, Troll…………you don't know anything about what you are spewing here. I lived during Newt's Speakership…and I know the man…you are just 'not dry behind the ears'…and are just another one making up things. If you can't vote for Newt…then just stay home…don't waste your shoe leather on a 3rd party….there isn't going to be one. Ron Paul said he would not…..so bye bye…night/night.. Sounds like you want 4 more Obama years…

    • Jinny

      Troll you wish! You just don't want to hear that Newt has a MASSIVE unfavorable rating. DID YOU NOT READ I do not want 4 more years of Obama? Nor do I want accountability for electing a philandering jerk of a candidate who makes me want to PUKE. How is THAT for a negative? I can name 100 people I would prefer to Newt. But if he is the republican nominee I am going to be thoroughly sickened and have to vote for a 3rd party candidate perhaps a libertarian……I don't know yet it just won't be for NEWT and it certainly won't be for OBAMA! Which creates a maddening dilemma for me.

  • Airangel

    Nancy Pelosi interviewed on CNN saying Newt absolutely would not be President…she was vehement about it…Man I would sure like himt to get in just so she can eat crow! I can't stand her! They really don't want Newt in…I have to wonder why? I have to wonder why the ethics charges? He was not found guilty in fact they say he is owed the $300K…but I wonder if he defied the gool 'ol boys and didn't play along so they got him on ethics charges….I just wonder what really goes on…seems to me he challenged them even in the day and didn't go along with the majority puppets doing the Elites bid!

    If you want to beat this Muslim dictator, you best get out there and drumup support. This is our final chance to preserve our free Republic.

  • Black9

    Mitt is the wimp, he can dish it pout by he sure can't take it. When his PAC was attacking Newt he was smiling, He is thin skinned and a wimp libral.

  • Airangel

    Newt is the only one taking on the GOP establishment and not playing it safe. I respect and admire that. He is the only one calling a spade a spade…calling Obama a Salinsky follower which dictate that you must lie and fit in to fool the masses until you have all the power….this state of the union address….was exactly professional finesse and lies, lies, lies…he basically said many things the Republicans pushed through in their bills but the Senate rejected…he as always, just tries to make it come across as his idea and take credit for it but ones he gets the dumbed down on board….he does nothing…just a bait and switch tactic!

    • msjallen

      The GOP establishment needs to be cleaned out and people with love for our country and willing live by the Constitution and find people who are willing to run for public office who believe the same. Our country is at its crossroads and we need a fresh start and get over all the PC and let people be free again.

    Hey Jinny.

    I understand your FRUSTRATION, your ANGER, your HATRED, and your UNFORGIVING toward Newt Gingrich's as a HYPOCRITE, an ADULTERER, a CHEATER, and a LIER.

    Their is a man in the Bible, and his name is DAVID. Better known as, KING DAVID. 1 Samuel 16: 12,13. GOD told Samuel to anoint David. For this is he. And the SPIRIT of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. Here is a man that GOD ALMIGHTY hand pick him to be KING over HIS people Israel, anoint him, and filled him with THE HOLY SPIRIT.

    In 1 Samuel 27: 3. David took for himself two wives.

    In 2 Samuel 5: 13. David took for himself more concubines or girl friends and more wives. And there were yet sons and daughters born to David.

    In 2 Samuel 7: 5. GOD told Nathan, saying, Go and tell my servant David, to build ME an house for ME to dwell in.

    In 2 Samuel 7: 13. GOD said, He shall build an house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever.

    In 2 Samuel 11: 1-27. KING DAVID committed a serial ADULTERY with Bathsheba. And got her pregnant, and than David had the woman's husband kill. The Bible said, And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah. And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.

    But the LORD forgave David for what he had done. The Bible said, And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away your sin; you shalt not die.

    The amazing thing about the LOVE of GOD and HIS MERCY is. David reigned over Israel, forty years. Seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.

    And David's son Solomon be came KING over Israel, after his father David died. And Solomon had 700 wives, princesses, and 300 hundred concubines or girl friends. Also, GOD had MERCY and FORGIVENESS toward KING SOLOMON.

    When a FORNICATOR, a MURDER, a WHISPERER, a BACKBITER, a HATER of GOD, a PROUD, a BOASTER, a INVENTOR of EVIL THINGS, a COVENANTBREAKER, a WHOREMONGER, a HOMOSEXUAL, a LIAR, a CHEATER, and an ADULTERER, made a CHOICE and TURN whole hearted to GOD and ask HIM for MERCEY, FORGIVENESS and RESTORATION of a BROKEN heart. GOD in return WILL RESTOR, FORGIVE, AND CLEANSE that person from ALL his or hers UNRIGHTEOUSNESS. And in that moment. He or she WILL experience the LOVE OF GOD and the PEACE OF GOD that passes ALL human understanding.

    Mr. Newt Gingrich had done that, Jinny.

    GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. AND YES. GOD BLESS NEWT GINGRICH.

      You are seriously ill. People have told me that it says in the Bible that any attempt at global govt is the work of satan. If you support CFR knewtie then you support global govt hence satan. You need a different Bible. All you evangelicals are seriously messed up to read and quote the good book then support satan. knewtie airbag is evil and will say ANYTHING to seduce and deceive. All globalist candidates have done that.

    The lame stream media in just one more attempt to choose our candidate for us. Screw them and the horse they rode in on. Glad I didn't watch that debate, I have most of the others.

  • johnny h

    Jinny: Your comments just about sum up my feelings.
    Newt has the Fixer People behind him. The Websites and media people think THEY can pick the President.
    This election is the most important ever.
    The Dems have gotten USA into the biggest financial mess since the Depression. The Republicans are capable of getting country back to financial integrity, but have a bad record a la GWB/rumsfeldt etc.
    Hard to choose this time, apart from ABO !

  • Dilbert

    Go Newt! He's the only one with the gonads to stand up to Obama and for America.

  • luvmyusa

    When I hear RINO's going against Newt, that tells me they fear him. So I am now leaning towards Newt to kick BO butt and all his corrupt administration out of office into 2012. Now Nancy P. is showing her fear of Newt. Go Newt!

  • SEAN MURRY

    you know the media is against the conservatives and it proves it is for obummer.

  • patriotrenegade

    If you like NAFTA, GATT, NAU, global warming, the "dream" act or erasing the Constitution as in knewtie's favorite "book" then YOU are NOT a conservative. You are voting for lies and hypocracy. Knewtbag is a CFR which makes him guilty of treason, and certainly NOT a "conservative". I challenge anyone to look these things up and defend this horrendous record. Get to work and stop being stupid for a change.

    I wish these two would stop the fight among themselves and start talking about the issues to fix the country. Mitt calling Newt a cry baby, that’s really important. If you have a good message, as Newt does. Why worry about weither people cheer.
    Barry has slot of people around him which if were republicans would be up on ethics charges. Mr Barry, that says a lot about you and Nancy and Harry.

    AA far as I'm concerned I wouldn't trust Newt as far as I could pick him up and toss him! I think he is a backstabbing, loose lipped gossip that only has his sharp tongue to guide him and his nonsense quips loaded with sarcasism against a fellow campaigner! He is a dirty fighter – and what you see today in his 'debates' is what you can expect if he made it to the white house – do you REALLY think he would be president when his soul is contaminated? This Newt is as corrupt as any other politician and if you can't see that, then take off the blinders and look at this poser through real lenses, not the rose colored ones. He is NOT trustworthy at all – sleezy is more descriptive and accurate! I wouldn't trust him alone even in my home – much less in the oval office! You can expect under the table payoffs along with all the other kinds of graft! Wake up and see what is REAL!!! Forget the 'clever' quips – they don't make the man!

  • tag

    I want Mitt to stop smiling all of the time and to come out of his corner swinging! THAT is what I want! Don't let this big mouth guffoff shut you down! Quit smiling – it's kinda dumb.

YOU KNOW THAT AFTER THE FIRST GINRICH OBAMA DEBATE ALL OTHER DEBATES WILL BE CANCELLED. http://WWW.SPIRITOFAMERICAPARTYRADIOSHOW.COM

  • Jan

    In the beginning of Gingrich's speeches, he did not mud- sling his opponents. But, when Ron Paul and the others started, Gingrich has a right to retaliate. The media and democrats are afraid of Gingrich since he has been in office long enough to know how they operate. Romney in my opinion is another Obama and he is the cry baby. People can't forget the past and Gingrich has apologized. Romney has already stated what he is going to do which correlates with what is already being done by O. I will certainly vote for Gingrich!!

  • Guest

    Mitt Romney is the cry baby. He is trying to buy his votes like Obama and we sure don't want another one like Obama, Mitt is a carbon copy of Obama. I don't blame Newt a bit, he should yell louder. ROMNEY WOULD NOT MAKE A GOOD PRESIDENT AND HE KNOWS THAT. I WOULDN'T VOTE FOR HIM IF HE WAS THE ONLY ONE ON THE BALLET. LOOK AT HIM CLOSE PEOPLE HE IS SNAKE IN THE GRASS.

  • Bill

    Mitt Romney for Vice President. It will be a winning Team in November.

  • Pegasus

    Apparently only the nutcases favoring the most dishonest, lying, crying, cheating, scoundral is being represented on this site. Newt has had a lot of experience browbeating two previous wives and more than likely dozens of other women. Character, honesty, common decency are very important traits and Newt is completely devoid of all. When will he show his tax records. If the Republicans vote him as their candidate, it will be the biggest landside in history of our country when Oboma destroys him. Newt is like a pit bull and he will certainly betaken down. Oboma is at least proud of his family and treats them with dignity. Its unbelievable anyone would want the woman he is married to now to live in the White House when she was his mistress for 8 years while married to his second wife. He seems to have spent more time changing wives than accomplishing anything else. His association with Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae should be investigated thoroughly and also his "ethic violations when a member of the Senate before being force to resign.

  • Cheryl

    O.K. seriously, how childish is that…. a cry baby picture? Really Romney? You don't have anything better to worry about. And the anniversary cake? It reminds me of high school. Do you really think either of those things got you votes? Grow up. How immature. Seriously.

  • jeremydjenkins31

    Jinny,
    Everyone predicts New't can't beat Romney, look at the media try to castrate every GOP candidate. They want Romney because he is the same as Obama. Obama doesn't want New't, to debate or introduce new ideas, Obama or the liberals have never had an original thought or idea. Obama has no balanced budget only added debt. The media has it all wrong, people are tired of Obama and the fairy tale media.
    I would vote for a dead tree before voting for Obama or Romney.

  • Joe CA

    I like Romeny but he is a "Candidate of the Unsure" I mean, I want someone who is successful and knows how to make money , "NOT JUST HOW~TO BORROW AND GIVE WHAT I EARN AWAY TO THE WElFARE RECIPIENTS, to those : THAT ALL THEY KNOW HOW TO DO IS DROP MORE KIDS OFF AT THE RED BLANKET GIMMI DEPOSITORY!" Is this all the Republican Party has to Offer? I for one am tired of 50% of the non tax paying, illegal imigrant, giimi state recipients doing nothing and making a living from us that do work and pay taxes. Then have the audacity to criticize those that do.
    Topping it all off being supported by the "Liberal Media"

    Sounds like the Russian Revolution song in 1918. Give all you earn to the governent and we will decide who gets their fare share! Just saying!

    I do not blame the smartes of our country. who whats to be belittled like this? No prespect any more! All we want is someone who can give hand outs to those that do not work, pay taxes, ignore illegal immigfration and are actaully afraid to challenge these malfunctioning ingrate!
