As for the “Newt got fired from the Speakership” crap, Yes Newt made slackers in the Congress very antsy. I like that.
Those guys that got Newt out gave us two utter failures to replace Newt, Bob Livingstone and Denny Hastert, both of the “Don’t Make Democrats Mad” school of thought. Result:Conservatives got rolled EVEN WHEN we had a majority!
Item: Denny Hastert endorsed Mitt Romney almost 4 months ago. Anybody surprised???
Excellent comments. Thanks very much!
Good point! Newt was too conservative for them. Santorum painted a different pix.
