Gingrich also had too much spineless RINO opposition in the Senate with Lott, Graham, McCain and Frist.

The House would pass it, the Senate would stop it. (Impeachment) Or they would vote for the largest tax increase in the history of the nation.

Yeah, Gingrich has his flaws, but I think he really wanted to do the right thing. Republicans in Congress got scared by the incessant press attacks and demonization of him and ran away like mice. Reagan was able to survive the press demonization and Gingrich was not. Gingrich being driven out was the turning point and where Congress was lost.
