Gingrich Outshines Romney, Santorum on Energy Policy
newt.org ^ | March 23, 2012 | newt.org

All three candidates joined Tommy Tucker on WWL Radio in New Orleans this morning and discussed the topic of erosion in Louisiana affecting the nation’s energy supply. Governor Mitt Romney admitted to not being “sufficiently briefed” on the issue. Like Romney, Senator Santorum also admitted to not being familiar with the issue.

Newt, on the other hand, responded to the same question from Tucker by outlining a two point plan for maintaining and revitalizing Louisiana’s offshore drilling and energy industry, admitting it is an issue on which he has been “briefed again and again.”

Additionally, Newt gave a speech today ​in Port Fourchon, the “Gulf’s Energy Connection,” on an extensive American energy plan and the need for an increase in offshore drilling, including in Louisiana.

Trip Gabriel from the New York Times tweeted about the huge difference in knowledge.

Elsewhere in the News Santorum is an Idiot, an it doesn’t matter if he wins a State, they don't count. Besides he wants to force women to have babies.

Just trying to save the Santorum haters a little time.

I dont care about post 8, or Newt, or Santorum. But every time I see your posts, you’re talking down to people, and it’s pretty annoying.

So you don’t care about any of this - and it annoys you - and yet you come around and feel the need to comment. Insanity?

Sorry but that’s kinda dumb, exactly how long do you think the average interview lasts?

If he had a plan, it should be posted someone, especially on newt.org.

Is that your only complaint, you expect every candidate to have every plan posted on their website?

Who’s your candidate, I want to compare your candidate’s ‘plans’ posted on his site against those plans currently posted on Newt’s site.

Let’s see if your candidate has a plan for the erosion control? I’d bet your candidate isn’t even aware of the issue much less have a plan for it.

My point was the article was stupid for bringing up a plan with no details on a very specific issue of erosion in La that a President cant fix.
