I had a lot of respect for Newt, but for me he fell off
the turnip truck for a while there. I think he’s a mixed
bag any longer. This one he sure got right, from my
perspective.
He was very good in the mid-90s. He became speaker and
things went south for him.
Then he’d make some bad calls, amidst the good ones, so
it was a tough ride there for a while, again for me.
Others may see it different.
Thanks for your thoughts Lee. Appreciate the response.
Newt is an opportunist. He was a Democrat before Roy Richards paid him to become a Republican. He has no real foundational beliefs. He simply says what he thinks will be to his best advantage at the time.
