Good article...Gingrich will raise the level of the debates and hopefully raise the game of the mediocre field we have...magritte
Agree. Newt is heads and shoulders above most of the field with his encyclopedic knowledge and razor-sharp intellect grounded in conservative philosophy.
Newt has issues, he has screwed up personally, I get that.
However, his divorce record would not keep him being hired to run a Fortune 500 company because he is a proven performer.
Plus I feel Gingrich will willingly speak to these issues when confronted.
Regarding this virulent anti-Ginrich block, ( by the way, a group that the libs LOVE, since it is eviscerating one of their most threatening foes)...
I am always amazed that some conservatives find it impossible to think strategically-—I do not see Sarah Palin having a snow ball’s chance in hell of winning—although I admire her immensely-—but there is a diehard segment that will only consider her.
That naive blind and rigid thinking is what put Bill Clinton into office with just 43% of the vote because the same stubborn mentality backed the unelectable Perot, they were so wrapped in a personal fantasy that he would win.
We need—as never before—to use our most effective weapons against the liberal onslaught—being self-defeating purists will kill our chances.
