Yes, he certainly does. He doesn’t have the record to back it up. That is my biggest concern with Newt. He has rhetoric without the record

Rhetoric without the record? Were you born in the last five years? Do you remember the 90’s when Newt was speaker and what he accomplished? In office??
I’m not sure we’re talking about the same person.
Ok, so Romney worked at Bain capital or whatever he did ...whatever. IN OFFICE we see what he did ...governend like a moderate liberal, ok’d every liberal cause from gays to abortion, raised taxes and everything else in between. THAT is Rom’s record ...I’ll take Newt’s anyday over that. Newt is and was entirely conservative.
The very little I understand about Bain Capital is he bought companies in trouble and got rid of what was the problem and turned them into productive, profit-making companies. He did it by shutting down non-productive parts and getting rid of employees that weren't needed. IOW, they closed and layed off employees that were not cost effective.
Assuming I'm close to understanding what Bain did, the thing I don't understand is that his record in government is doing the opposite of what he has done in his business career.
How can he run for POTUS and not be talking about shutting down the Depts. of Ed.,Interior, Energy, etc. That's what he would have done with a business...IF I come close to understanding what he did.
Of course, he has many other issues that I could never vote for...'cept against Obama...who has many more issues.
