Seriously? Unintended consequences of Gingrich who lost every major demographic in FL, failed to get to the 50% mark in his own home state of GA after massive ad buys and campaigning, lost badly in his own backyard, his “southern strategy” is up in flames, his big ideas like “permanent moon based colonies in eight years” is something we don’t hear anymore except as the stuff of SNL Unintended consequences of what?
