Newt was the primary motivator in developing the Contract with America for the 1994 election. He made a legitimate effor to enact each portion of that contract. Yes, due to the lack of Senate commitment and veto's by Clinton, much of the contract was not passed or negotiated down. But, the segment of government that he led, the house, was tried and true committed to execution of that contract.

Dust off that contract and post it on the wall. Doesn't it accurately represent what the Tea Party is all about?

Newt was the featured speaker at NYC’s first Tea Party rally on 4/15/09. There were 15k people on the south side of Cit Hall park who heard him.

“But Newt has very little to do Tea Party ideals other than his early years and Balance Budget measure.....he is a Washington insider”

Which is why this surprises me. Have some of the Tea Partiers been replaced by moderates?

imo, Newt is better than Romney, Paul or Huntsman, but he IS a moderate! He endorsed the Republican radical LIBERAL congressional candidate Dede Scozzafava in NY’s 23rd district (rather than conservative Doug Hoffman), and Newt calling Paul Ryan’s plan to fix Medicare “radical,” are just a few examples.

Newt is not a liberal, but no way is he a Tea Party type of candidate UNLESS the Tea Party has changed since 2010.
