Pro amnasty...
Pro Individual mandate..
Pro global warming (he was for it before he was against it)

There is more.

Newt, while conservative on some things can easily be impeached on others.

Hmmm. He has a plan to solve illegal immigration that is rational and workable. This is a practical leadership, hardly “amnesty”.

He toyed with the idea of an individual mandate for health insurance, but never proposed legislation and only offered it as a thought experiment.

He has written that global warming is man-made in the past, but offered market solutions (instead of big government take overs) which is a brilliant way of creating stifling the socialists and uniting the country on the environment in a way that doesn’t hurt the economy. He voted against cap and trade.

There is nothing wrong with someone changing views on a complex issue. Many people were mislead about this 15 years ago. He now has the correct position.

But the New York Times thinks he's conservative, that should be enough for anyone...
