GrokTV Event: Granite State Patriots Liberty PAC Presidential Debate – “Press Avails”:Newt Gingrich & Rick Santorum

by Skip

The usual practice in politics is that after a speech, politicians will generally make themselves available to the press (i.e., "press avails") for additional questions on either what was just said and discussed, or on an agenda being carried out by a member of that media and trying to put that politician into a bad light.

Thursday nite after the Granite State Patriots Liberty PAC Prez debate was no different.   First one was with Rick Santorum:

Newt was next, and one thing that I though was quite gracious is that he took a question from a young blogger Conor (Conor’s Conservatism Corner) and made it a big deal (from the aspect of encouraging him):

As a blogger who, when blogging was still a "what is that?" event, endured the "down their noses haughty looks" of the MSM, I thought it was a great moment for young Conner to be recognized by a nationally known figure for not just being a youngster, but as a reputable blogger.

As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.
