Drudge, conservative media criticize Newt Gingrich (Drudge pulls an Oprah on his loyal readers...)

Newt Gingrich better hope voters who lapped up his delicious hits on the “elite media” and liberals don’t read the Drudge Report this morning.

Or the National Review. Or the American Spectator. Or Ann Coulter.

If they do, Gingrich comes off looking like a dangerous, anti-Reagan, Clintonian fraud.

It’s as if the conservative media over the past 24 hours decided Gingrich is for real, and they need to come clean about the man they really know before it’s too late.

Funny that it is Politico covering this story, after they acted as the designated hit men against conservative candidates throughout the campaign up to this point. I think they’re just trying to drive a wedge into this divide and do as much damage as possible to the party.
