My guess is fellow Georgians tend to stick together.

I noticed they were always making eyes at each other. ( ~ ;

Nah, it's more than that.

Gingrich's job is not to go to Washington to make friends in Congress or with the inside the DC beltway types. He's going to do his damndest to bust up that ole boys and girls network. You know, just the opposite what others do when they get to Washington. They join the DC elitist club. Alas like Ricky, who endorsed snarlin Arlen over Toomey:

"FELLOW PENNSYLVANIA SENATOR Rick Santorum has slavishly praised Specter in a television spot. Santorum also sent his own staff to buoy Specter's team in the field, and has told everyone within earshot that the primary challenger, Rep. Pat Toomey, is "too conservative for Pennsylvania." "

So what is Rick's excuse here? That he 'slavishly' endorsed liberal Specter over conservative Pat Toomey.

Santorum endorsed Specter in a deal to get SCOTUS Justices Alito and Roberts confirmed. http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/01/mad_at_santorum_over_specter_what_would_reagan_do.html

You got that right Red Steel. Newt knows the Capitol Building like the back of his hand. Knows where the back room meetings take place. Who runs them and how the maneuvering is done.

Newt is every Congress persons worst nightmare. He knows how the place runs and he knows how to get things done there.

It will be very hard to snow President Gingrich when he takes over the Oval Office.
