Self described "Newt Groupie" Flora Reece says she will fight for Gingrich all the way to the convention in Tampa in August.
Ms. Reece says that she and other "Gingrich" conservatives have discussed the possibility of breaking from the GOP and establishing a separate "Conservative" party if Mitt Romney is forced on them by GOP Establishment.
Sinclair News spoke with Ms. Reece at Newt's "Victory Party" in Orlando Tuesday night as the campaign watched the FL GOP Primary results come in.
FOX News called the primary for Mitt Romney as soon as the polls in the western Florida panhandle closed at 8:00pm ET. ~ read more

now here is another interesting case just posted to the third circuit's website.
it also involves private investigator, mark gravel, investigating a city employee.
we might submit an La. R.S. 44:1 et seq., public records request for all the surveillance video and private investigator files.
the city's stance in this case is inexplicable, considering that alexandria mayor, jacques roy represented pineville, la., fireman stephan jones against the city of pineville and the pineville municipal fire and police civil service commission [docket 220,225 "c" petition for declaratory judgment and injunctive relief] in his wrongful termination case.
the stephan jones pleadings contain some fine legal writing by the mayor.
anyway, within that request we would also want the invoices and cancelled checks to see just much in legal fees etc., that the so called gold law firm soaked the city of alexandria, la., taxpayers for. including the $721.50 that the third circuit assessed against the city of alexandria for all costs of this appeal.
kudos to ninth judicial district court judge harry randow.

congressman rodney alexander, apparently stealing a page from the david vitter playbook.
tonight we received what we thought at first glance at the caller id was going to be a robo or sales call to learn that it was an invitation to listen and participate in congressman rodney alexander's live telephonic town hall meeting.
we didnt bother to try and ask a question or participate in any of the polls and as with david vitter, we do not support this treasonous, traitorous rat.
however, we do find these events to be pretty ingenious and think that more politicians at all levels local, state and federal should put them on.
we received this clip this morning via an email forward captioned:'What Do You Think About The Safety of Cell Phones Now?': A Must See Video
Wow, cell phones are sure versatile aren't they? Scary!
