THE “SOUTHERN STRATEGY” WILL RISE AGAIN!
Former U.S. Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich is weighing in on a South Carolina education race – backing the widow of race-baiting GOP strategist Lee Atwater in her bid for S.C. Superintendent of Education.
Gingrich – who won the 2012 South Carolina GOP presidential primary – has endorsed Sally Atwater’s campaign via this web video.
“She has a big heart and a good head,” Gingrich said in the spot, referring to Atwater as a “personal friend.”
“We’ve known each other for a long time,” Gingrich said.
Atwater – a former federal educrat – has extensive GOP establishment connections in Washington, D.C. thanks to her late husband, Lee Atwater.
As such, we suspect this won’t be the first big-name endorsement she rolls out in her campaign … assuming other prominent elected officials like Gingrich are willing to overlook Lee Atwater’s controversial legacy.
“Newt Gingrich is a close friend and his support today means the world to me personally and our grassroots conservative movement here in South Carolina,” Atwater said. “Newt’s strong support will bring more attention to our growing grassroots momentum for the June 10th primary.”
Here’s the clip …

Atwater is running for a largely ceremonial office, as S.C. Superintendents exercise little real control over the Palmetto State’s worst-in-the-nation government-run school system (local school districts and the S.C. General Assembly wield the real influence).
Still, the race has drawn multiple challengers – including deputy superintendent Charmeka Childs, liberal pro-bureaucrat lobbyist Molly Spearman and social conservative activist Sheri Few.
Atwater’s late husband is famous for pioneering the “Southern Strategy,” in which GOP candidates learned to more effectively message their deep-seated racism.

“she has a big heart and gives good head” –still a little horny, are ya’?
He won’t know that until his current wife is on her death bed.
“She has a big heart and a good head,”
While Newt has no heart and a giant head.
+2
Well speaking of his heart, he looks like he has Congestive Heart Failure.
Newt, without a doubt, the biggest HYPOCRITE that has ever lived!
But he is SO MUCH smarter than Obama…you HAVE TO admit that, don’t you???…
Newt was GREAT back in the mid-90s, Contract With America era. You cannot take that from him. He was the de facto president, because he whipped Clinton to pass Conservative policies…
But that was Newt’s Zenith. I thank him for that, because the country was freer and more prosperous because of his work…
But he needs to relax, and teach, because he is a brilliant, brilliant man. I’d love to see him debate Obama, just see him wipe the floor with that Dumb@$$, Obama…
Other than that, his personal political life is likely over…
GrandTango — How in this universe can you “upvote” your own comment?
He was proud of it.
:-D
I LMAO. NOTHING p!$$#$ off you Gang-safe-mentality Dumb@$$#$ thinkers more than when I get support from other readers..
And it is ESPECIALLY hard on you, if it’s a comment you are indoctrinated to resist…
You HATE Newt…but he saved us from Clinton…and you HATE for that too…but if you are not brain-damaged, you know it’s true…though NONE of you have the guts to EVER admit it…Hahahaha…
I love P!$$$!*ng all over the little myths that you people are fed by the people who control you…I LOVE it even more when you get P!$$#d off…..Hahahaha
“when I get support from other readers..”
Are you referring to Pene Pequena — who lives in that dark closet at the back of your head?
Like I said: I love it when you Dumb@$$#$ are faced w/ material you cannot handle…
It’s like that report that confirmed Conservatives are better lovers than little-weenie, effeminate Liberal men…
That one really F*#ked w/ your heads..some of you still P*$$ all over yourselves when I remind you of that truth…You are so predictable…Hahahaha….
Ever hear of a sockpuppet?
I wish you’d use a little lotion!
Man, Newt sure wiped the floor with Romney and Obama in 2012!
Look at the country,,…Sadly, Obama has wiped the floor w/ us…
When Newt won (Contract With America) we ALL Won…
But I’m guessing you are not even big enough to admit Obama lied (“You can keep your coverage if you like it, and it will cost less”)…will you???
Newt wasn’t feeling well – he didn’t get any sleep at all on the cruise with his wife, and that led to a sour stomach.
“I have a big hard and she gives good head”?
On the other hand, Mrs. newt is amply endowed to give “nose”!
Nothing like a chick that does nasal!
Shifty Henry posted a few weeks ago that he had actually seen it done.
Oh hell, Enos!!!! I missed that one. We need to get someone on here who has been and done (from both ends and maybe both nostrils, too). Is the left tighter than the right or vice versa? Do nostril hairs add or detract from the experience?
Enquiring minds want to know!
Also, if she has a bad cold while you are having nasal sex with her, can you be charged with “Buggery”?
The Amazon river dolphin or boto has been reported to form up in bands of 3–5 individuals enjoying group sex. The groups usually comprise young males and sometimes one or two females. Sex is often performed in non-reproductive ways, using snout, flippers and genital rubbing, without regard to gender. In captivity, they have been observed to sometimes perform homosexual and heterosexual penetration of the blowhole, a hole homologous with the nostril of other mammals, making this the only known example of nasal sex in the animal kingdom.
Do you think that the Eskimos know something we don’t?

That is so damn FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!
Conservative movement in SC. Who actually listens to this BS other than Tango?
Sally Atwater is the most likely candidate to shake up the agency, get rid of a few dead beats and actually help schools improve. The rest have a social agenda or education consituency/status quo they will try to protect. Now if she can get Sara Palin to endorse her, she’s in. But I expect the price has gone up from the Nikki days. Or if she can sleep with Fits. That seems to confer magic powers…
It’s okay, Bush endorsed her too. Not THAT Bush…. “no new taxes” …. THAT Bush.
Hey Will, you dumbass! She’s already recieved an endorsement from President H.W. BUSH, so this ISN’T her first big endorsement as it is. You are an idiot!
Who cares about Lee’s position on anything. He’s not running, she is. Have the decency not to judge her by what her deceased husband used to believe. Sheesh.
She was married to it and as GOP women tow the line of their husband’s ideology it has merit. She, however, has none.
You think she would have any of these endorsements without Lee’s last name? No, while she may be a fine person she is not only not qualified for the position but also has NO connections within the state. We need to keep Washington out of South Carolina!
Eva Braun runs for dogcatcher.
Who did Delinda boink to get this endorsement?
Has Atwater found anyone from inside the state to endorse her?
Rove smiled warmly in her general direction.
Sally Awater is the right choice for SC’s education system. She will bring a new level of understanding and genuine dedication to fight for our students and teachers.
New Leadership for our Education Department!
New Leadership in 2014 for South Carolina!
Sally Atwater for S.C. Superintendent of Education!
