“Gingrich is sacrificing himself to take Romney down, imo”
That’s how it appears. A worthy objective, if Newt can pull it off.
Here’s how I see it.
Newt had great success by basically taking the attitude that he was going to make his points and not worry about traditional tactics. He - naively - believed he could do it on ideas alone.
Then Myth and PuPaul poured $5 million dollars worth of lies into Iowa and it damaged him badly....and woke him up.
So now, it’s ends justifying means. And like you I blame him not one whit. Let Newt do what viscerally feels right to Newt. If that’s retribution and letting the chips fall where they may to take down scumbag Romney, so be it.
I was with him when he was at 3% in the polls and I’ll be with him until he hangs it up. Besides which his strategy may have the beneficial side effect of giving Charles Krauthammer a coronary.
GO NEWT!!
