PUHHHLEASE!
You guys honestly think Gingrich would have passed that terrible Healthcare bill? What’s more, do you think the democrat congress would have even ATTEMPTED to pass it knowing Gingrich was the POTUS?
Yes he has some bad records. He also has some very good accomplishments. The Contract With America won republicans the congress for the first time in 40 years and they kept that promise. They also balanced the budget (which clinton UN-rightfully takes credit for).
I WOULDN’T trust a candidate whose own healthcare policy was the basis for Obamacare.
He may not have passed as far reaching a plan as the Rats, but he in on the record saying that Romneycare mandates are a good thing and he was on a crusade with Hitlery not too long ago for Fed Gov't involvement in health care. Gov't controls on peoples medical information in the name of "progress". Plus his clients he was lobbying for were beneficiaries of this bill passing.
How many Repubs do you see with Newt at this rally for his brand of health reform? I just as soon my Conservative candidate was not more comfortable with Hitlery and Pelosi than with Paul Ryan and Reagan.
