“Gingrich and Romney are virtually identical in my book no as well. Gingrich=Romney=McCain=Dole They are all pretty much the same. I admire much about every one of them but they are all flawed deeply philosophically.

I’ll take Bachman, Santorum or Perry.”

Blows my mind! Gingrich is far from perfect, but certainly far more conservative than Perry or Romney.

Romeny, we all know what he is. Perry, he supports a dream act in his state and runs high deficits. Gingrich is the last Speaker to balance a Federal budget.

He balanced the budget? thats like so 15 years ago...just today he says

GINGRICH: Well, it depends on what you’re subsidizing. The idea of having economic incentives for manufacturing goes back to Alexander Hamilton’s first report of manufacturing which I believe was 1791. We have always had a bias in favor of investing in the future. We built the transcontinental railroads that way. The Erie Canal was built that way. We’ve always believed that having a strong infrastructure and having a strong energy system are net advantages because they’ve made us richer and more powerful than any country in the world. But what I object to is subsidizing things that don’t work and things that aren’t creating a better future. And the problem with the modern welfare state is it actually encourages people to the wrong behaviors, encourages them not to work, encourages them not to study.

good look with that balanced budget with this version of newt
