"Newt did say to cave short term to Dems to avoid an immediate crisis."

Don't negotiate but cave short-term?! What kind of double-speak is that?! Oh yeah, the GOP bending over to take another one.

At first glance it sounds reasonable, but after that it makes no sense.

What is short term? Four years?

Never understood the attraction to Gingrich. He talks tough, but in the end, he sells out like the rest of the liberal Republicans. They don't understand that, with the Dems, “compromise” means “capitulation.”
