Why is everyone jumping on a headline and first sentence, which represents an opinion of the liberal author of the far left Cox News Service Austin America Statesman’s newspaper blog (though there is little difference today between these and supposedly “mainstream” media)?
Here’s what Newt actually said (from couple of paragraphs down, not the opinion of Bob Deans) :
“Senator Clinton is a very formidable professional. She works very hard. She has thought a long time about this,” Gingrich told reporters at the National Press Club. “The suggestion that she would not be capable of this is just wrong.”
Does that sound like an “endorsement” to anybody? I think it’s pretty obvious and timely warning from Newt to the base not to take Hillary lightly as a candidate. He is the only one talking about real issues, real problems and real [conservative] solutions... while others are trying to pretend that while “they are not Ronald Reagan” they are closest of the field to Ronald Reagan and ready to assume his mantle.
I am not a Newtbot, but he has yet to disappoint me this election cycle, though accounts, which have no resemblance to the truth, of what he SUPPOSEDLY said or done by the media and many on FR, do. It sounds like any article ABOUT him and what he “said”, needs a translator.
Next thing you know, he will say that “Medicare will wither on the vine”... [feeble attempt at humor on my part here].
Brilliant people are often either misunderstood or sabotaged by spreading falsehoods and innuendos. I believe the left knows who presents the biggest problems for them and does its best to destroy them early and often, while sugarcoating and presenting us with false choices the way they had done with current crop of GOP “frontrunners”. Why so many of us keep falling for it and don’t look and think deeper, I don’t know.

Yep, that describes her.
