Wrong. Newt is heavy baggage and un-telegenic and he’s so yesterday. The government shutdown under Clinton where Newt lost, and was booted out by his own party will come to haunt him to say nothing of his myriad ethical problems. According to CNN, he also loses the female vote in spades. Obama will win in a landslide. Forget Newt, he’s just dividing the anti-Romney vote.
CNN. I will go with that.
The way I see it he was forced out of congress from the liberals who hated him for getting things done. The repubs were scared of the media & the other rinos could cared less. A fine to him about writing a book. Wow. Now, they all do it. Yes, he’s been there though he is a brillant person who I think the nation needs at this crossroads.
Oh, save us the histrionics!
“...After only four years with his Party still in power, his own members forced him out...”
Oh yeah, and many of those Republicans are still in Congress. They are part of the ongoing problem of business as usual in Washignton, D.C.
Under a Republican president, they added over $3 trillion to the federal deficit, shunned conservative policy in favor of Beltway influence-peddling, and so damaged the GOP brand that we lost the majority Gingrich had worked years to forge.
Do you really think I give a damn that Newt’s fabulous colleagues think his reemergence would be a disaster for Republicans? No.
The elections of 2010 were NOT a merit promotion; the Republicans were the only alternative in town!
He has done more to put Ronald Reagan’s conservative policies into government practice than anyone else presently running for the Republican Party presidential nominee position. I usually ignore endorsements, as they’re usually quid pro quo arrangements, but Gingrich is now endorsed by Michael Reagan, Art Laffer, and numerous other former Reagan administration officials.
Newt Gingrich is pro-life, pro-2nd Amendment and loves America and understands its citizens. As a historian, he thoroughly knows the U.S. Constitution and our nation’s history.
He allied himself with Ronald Reagan to build the Reagan Coalition, the Religious Right, and the Republican majority (together the Reagan Revolution) which directly led the downfall of the Soviet Union, the Contract with America, government reforms, less government, tax cuts, a balanced budget, and the great, long-standing Reagan economy.
