Exactly. Newt can never answer a question Yes or No. He always has to be “brilliant,” to have “ideas.”

Reagan didn’t care who got the credit. He actively concealed his brilliance. He didn’t mind if people—even his fans—thought he had only three or four basic ideas—cut tax rates, cut spending, defeat the Soviets. That’s why everybody could tell you what “Reaganism” was. It was what Ronald Reagan had been saying for forty years.

Gingrich will not stop doing what he did the other day: Going off on a toot about paying schoolchildren to mop floors. The important thing isn’t that it’s not a bad idea. The important thing from Gingrich’s point of view is that it’s “transformative” and “new.” The important thing from Democrats’ point of view is that this “idea” can be instantly translated into “child labor.”
