[Interesting Times]

The quintessential example of establishment angst came Thursday from Bob Dole, the former Senate majority leader and 1996 Republican presidential nominee. Hours before Thursday’s GOP debate, he released a letter — circulated by Mitt Romney’s campaign — attacking Gingrich and pleading with Republican voters not to make him the party’s nominee. There is much rich history behind that letter.

Perhaps Gingrich's classic line labelling Dole "the tax collector for the Welfare State" touched a nerve.

as someone said the other day, ‘when was the last time that we have heard from Dole?.. he could have been speaking out against Obama these past 3 years, but he waits until now to go after Newt.

“Perhaps Gingrich’s classic line labelling Dole “the tax collector for the Welfare State” touched a nerve.”

That Gingrich remark, and Dole recent remark are an example of “what goes around, comes around.”
