This is not thermonuclear. This is very mild criticism compared to what Newt will face if he gets the nomination and runs against Obama. It is better that Newt deal with this stuff now rather than in October for the first time.

The MSM will go very negative on Newt, and any other candidate for that matter. It will be a thousand times worse than the mild criticism he is facing now.

If he picks Palin as his VP running mate you’ll see thermonuclear unlike anything seen before by the Left.

I agree with you. I don’t see this as scorched earth. So he criticized Reagan? So did G.H. Bush and he went on to become president. This is all they’ve got??? And Rush is hysterical about it.

This isn’t criticism. It is flat out lies.

Granted the attacks will be worse in the general election, but Gingrich will not be getting attacked by Obama in the fall for having criticized Ronald Reagan. He won't be getting attacked from the right.
