Newt was a great teacher of history and conservative philosophy. One of the greatest assets for conservatives.
What happened? Why flush principles so easily? Parading with Pelosi in favor of global warming, fighting like hell to elect a leftist as a republican?
He’s lost his mind or principles. And my trust.
I can’t see him as a leader for conservatism anymore.
He is one of the people undermining the good fight, and a serious threat to it now.
Newt want to run for president. His "move to the center has been one awkward misfire after another. First he sits on the sofa with a tyrant Pelosi. Then he refuses (prior to the election) to attack Obama - although he now admits he was wrong about him. Now, he backs a left wing Republican. All bad moves which only served to make conservatives ever more wary of him.
More importantly his sense of the attitudes of the American voter is atrocious. Newt moves leftward at the very time the American voter is moving to the right.
Perhaps Newt should stop taking political advice from his wife.
