He was snookered by the left who wanted to use him for leverage to push their wild plans. He agreed in principle to invest in alternative energy.

But Newt is so smart, this is impossible, he must agree with Pelosi completely, he's just sorry he got caught.

Or he's so dumb that anyone can wrap his ego around their little finger, and get him to do whatever they want.

Yep, this is the guy we want for President.

Your point makes no sense. Santorum destroyed his career in the senate because he stood by Arlen Spector when the conservatives begged him to support Pat Toomey. He got snookered and made deals with liberals. Romney made it clear he was a moderate, even liberal in his earlier days. He voted for Paul Tsongas. He did put liberal judges on the Mass. high courts because he had to make deals with liberals. We see his whole past clearing up before us.

I know Newt’s record as Speaker and Minority Whip back in Reagan’s day. It’s there clear as day. I can also trace what happened relative to the clean air initiative and what he was looking for and what he did when the liberals pushed their plan. It’s all in the record. He made a good faith effort to work together with the liberals and even sit with Pelosi but he when the truth came out of what they were pushing he made no deal. He got snookered to sit down with her but that was as far as it went. Can you say the same for Romney and Santorum?

I can see you don’t want Newt, but you might be better off looking at his entire record in governance and as a private citizen in comparison to the other candidates before trashing him.
