Newt Gingrich represents more of that connectivity to the working class

Yep, he's a regular Joe 6 Pack.

No different than the Palins or most of us, Newt came from a lower-to-middle-class background. That makes all the difference in understanding with how regular Americans live their lives.

Gingrich was born at the Harrisburg Hospital in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, on June 17, 1943, as Newton Leroy McPherson.

In 1946, his mother married Army officer Robert Gingrich (1925–1996), who adopted Newt.[7]

Gingrich was raised in Hummelstown, near Harrisburg, and on military bases where Robert Gingrich was stationed.

In 1970, Gingrich joined the history department at West Georgia College as an assistant professor. In 1974 he moved to the geography department and was instrumental in establishing an interdisciplinary environmental studies program.

"Yep, he's a regular Joe 6 Pack."

We revoked his membership when we found out about the Tiffany's account.

A man that puts his campaign on hold to take a cruise and a half a million dollar shopping trip to Tiffanys, really doesn’t make too much connectivity to me or mine. I wouldn’t say he was wrong to do do it if he can afford it.

But then neither does Mitt. Santorum comes in closer.

Compared to Milt he’s Fred Flintstone and Ralph Cramden combined.
