Newt Gingrich is a historian, he loves this country and understands our Constitution, our system of government and the sacrifices made by patriots to create it, and the importance of maintaining it. He knows how government works and how it should work. He is intelligent, educated, and has common sense. Newt carries some baggage but the deeper we get into the campaign and the more we see and hear from the candidates, I Realize that Newt’s baggage is not nearly as heavy as I thought. He has gone to the church with his personal baggage, he has admitted to mistakes. He has been in the public eye for 35 years and has made public controversial decisions, he has cast over 7200 votes, made over 15,000 speeches, written 24 books. He has matured over these years. His original Contract with America led to CONSERVATIVE Republicans taking the US House. As Speaker they had 4 consecutive balanced budgets, welfare reform, strengthened our national defense and intelligence. The CBO had forecast a deficet in ten years of 2.5 trillion when he was elected speaker and 4 years later it was for a surplus of 2.5 for a turnaround of 5 Trillion $. They cut taxes and unemployment dropped to 4.2%. President Clinton talks of his administration having balanced budgets, surplus, and welfare reform, that’s true, but it was thrust upon him by Newt and the Republican Congress. Republicans should be apoligizing to Newt for squandering what he brought to the country instead of attacking him. I believe this can be Newt’s time, America is in trouble and we need an advocate, I believe that advocate is Newt Gingrich.
Wow! Very well spoken! I think you need to be on the campaign trail with Newt!!
