Gingrich supporters: Don’t let Pelosi take your vote away

Obviously, Washington is terrified.
I didn’t even have to look. As I switched on the computer this morning, I knew exactly what the header on Drudge would be.
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) phrased her words carefully, but she still set herself up.
Notice Pelosi made her ambiguous threat in an interview with CNN’s John King? King was the moderator Gingrich unloaded on during the South Carolina debate. This is not circumstantial. Pelosi told King Gingrich would not be president. “There’s something I know.”
Notice how King dropped the ball? What kind of journalist wouldn’t drill her on that? Obviously, Pelosi is trying to influence the outcome of the Republican Presidential Primary in Florida.
Pelosi bordered on blackmail with her statement.
It's obvious what candidate Pelosi doesn't want President Barack Obama to run against.
If you support Gingrich’s platform of tax reform, regulatory reform and downsizing Washington, vote for him anyway. Here’s why.
Media continues to claim Florida is a winner take all state—that the delegate counts will not be awarded proportionately. This is may not be the case. [See note in followup.]
If the Republican National Committee goes by its own rules, delegate counts must be awarded proportionately.
One of the few media outlets to point this out is National Public Radio. According to the RNC rules, the delegates must be awarded proportionately. This is important because we may end up with a brokered convention. If nothing else, casting a vote for your candidate will give him a shot at influencing who does get the nomination.
Power brokers in both parties appear to have made a pre-determination on who the Republican presidential nominee will be.
The mobilization of bias in this election is the same as that employed to elect Obama.
Don’t let Pelosi or anyone else take your vote away.
Back the man you believe can fix the mess Pelosi and her Party played a large role in creating.
How long did it take the political class to admit Gingrich was the target of a witch hunt when he resigned as Speaker of the US House?
Finally Byron York at The Washington Examiner admitted the same thing I have told you—former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich was cleared. Now we have a threat from Pelosi that borders on attempted blackmail.
Maybe somebody should tell former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney. Gingrich was cleared.

Gingrich has responded to Pelosi's bizarre statement, saying, "Put up or shut up...bring it on." Gingrich gave the response during the Washington Times' 'America's Morning News' program.
Gingrich also summed up what many of us believe: "If you're a leftwing Democrat, the prospects of a Gingrich presidency are a nightmare."
On the matter of awarding Florida delegates, I am attempting to get clarification on this matter. The Republican Party of Florida website published information about the delegate counts, but it's not clear to me whether advancing the state's primary will result in the Republican National Committee forcing proportional degate count awards.
Here's an article I wrote after Florida broke the rules by changing our Primary schedule. That article has background on this matter.

As anticipated, Pelosi is backtracking. She may have considered the legal implications. Or not. Government has a tendency to give high ranking Dems a complete pass. Rep. Murtha (now deceased) comes to mind.
