I just heard Mark Davis (local talk show guy) say that he was afraid of Mitt’s tendency to move to the left when challenged.
Me, too.
However, when Newt won the House in the 90’s, he lost focus.
His own compadres described him as grandiose, hyperbolic and a disaster at administrating.
Tom Coburn said, in Breach of Trust, “After the shutdown, however, he was like a whipped dog who still barked, yet cowered, in Clinton’s presence.”
Now, if elected, Newt would not have to content with a president in the other party. However, he would have to contend with constant criticism from the libs and the press.
Could he be steadfast this time?
We won’t know until we know. Do we want to take that chance?
