Presidents are selected, not elected. Gingrich may not be 100% consistent in his conservatism, but he is not beholden to the banks and other corporate interests as Romney and Obama are. What the reasonable voices on the right call “erratic”, “chaotic”, and “undisciplined” is simply an inadequate obeisance to the interests that control both parties.
One of these interests is the media establishment, which includes Drudge. They have much to lose with a Gingrich presidency.
So much for that bastion of freedom: a free press.
The canard that we must vote republican or face ruin doesn't resonate with me any more. Republicans have been as ruinous to the Republic as Democrats have been.
But seriously, will Newt make any difference?
And what does the media establishment have to loose with Newt?
