Gingrich is a RINO. I used to like him back in the day, but not so much anymore. We need fresh faces. The party is shrinking and guys like Gingrich are not going to help bring in new voters.
I agree Gingrich has become a RINO and he also sounds meaner the times I heard him speak before the election, and not in a good way. I thought Steele once dissed the Republican party too.
Gimgrich is wrong on some issues like global warming but labeling him a RINO is too simplistic. I do agree with you that we need fresh faces. I like Newt working in the background.
