McCain: "We've Got To Stop The Debates"

MR. GREGORY: Can Newt Gingrich beat President Obama? SEN. McCAIN: I think any of our candidates can, but you just showed the numbers up there. We've got to stop the debates.

George Will: "We're At The Horrid Stage With Newt Gingrich"

"Time is not Newt Gingrich's friend because the more time he has the more he talks. And the more he talks the more he says things, as he just here this morning, he said that I would love to be civil, but I'm running against a maniacal liar. Now, that's pretty strong language. I don't know if you have ever told Longfellow's nursery rhyme to your 4-y

Axelrod: "I've Always Thought That Romney Was A Weak Front-Runner"

"I've always thought that Governor Romney was a weak front-runner. I still think he's a weak front-runner.

Gingrich: "Massachusetts Liberal" Romney Has Policy Of "Carpet Bombing"

"Governor Romney has the ability to raise an amazing amount of money out of Wall Street, from Goldman Sachs to all the major banks. And he has a basic policy of carpet bombing his opponent.

Paul Ryan: "The President Isn't Leading" On Upcoming Fiscal Train Wreck

"The president isn't leading. The president isn't truthful with the American people about what kind of fiscal train wreck is coming, we're going to be.

Chris Matthews: Is Mitt Romney "Just Too Damn Rich?"

CHRIS MATTHEWS: Just too damn rich. Is Mitt Romney with his $250 million, his accounts Zurich and the Caymans too far removed to know what life in America is about? For that matter is Newt Gingrich who breakfasts at Tiffany’s and suppers off Freddie Mac. (h/t

Boehner: House Likely To Attach Keystone Approval To Jobs Bill

Fred Thompson: "Some Old Score Settling Going On" With Newt's Rivals

MR. GREGORY: Let's talk about some of the dynamics here. You have the establishment of the Republican Party saying Newt Gingrich cannot be the nominee.

He said this, "I haven't been cr
