What do you remember? - I remember the incredible victory in the '94 election - I remember Gingrich saying Clinton, "made him melt." and he let Clinton do whatever he wanted. - I remember Gingrich told the entire conservative House that they needed to abandon conservatism starting in 1996, and the rest of leadership had to mutiny so he didn't completely abandon it. - I remember he single-handedly saved by having his own bimbo eruption when Clinton was under impeachment. That was unfortunately, the defining moment of conservatism. It;s not fair, but from that moment on most Americans considered conservatives lying hypocrites. Conservatism has never recovered. If that hadn't happened, we wouldn't have President Obama today. - I remember during his run at speakership he and his mother acted like jerks, making Republicans look like jerks, reversing everything Reagan had done. -I remember he started out as a Rockefeller Republican and never changed and ran against Reaganism in '76. -I remember he went on apology tour with Nancy Pelosi in 2006, because it was trendy and apologized for the evils of conservatism (He did Obama's apology tour before it was cool) He said that conservatives were lying about global warming because they were greedy. -When conservatives cost his handpicked candidate Dede Scozzfava an election he posted a rant on his web site about how terrible conservatives were.

What do you remember? You can't deny any of these things, because they are true.

I think you left out his rant on Ryan’s ‘right wing social engineering’ comment. Thanks, Newt, with friends like you, who need enemies?

Sounds like a caption of the Young and Restless.

He followed the constitution to have Clinton brought up on charges while others tried to have him removed for their political careers. Don't forget that, buddy. Newt never blamed the standards for making bad choices like Mr. is did. So, you are a weak person for buying the spin. I'd like to see you and the others up there doing 1/100th of what the man did over his career.

All true. You remember well but Newt is still able to hit home runs out of the park but then strike out when the game win is in view. He is inconsistent, not reliable and unpredictable.

He could be a great President if only he could figure out how to stay on the message that galvanizes Americans and so make Americans proud to be Americans as well as curious to know more about conservatism.
