Newt is not trust worthy, which is why lost in 2011. Once he was great and to this day deserves our respect for his past efforts. Sadly he is no longer the man he once was.
Cults of personality (and of ANTI-personality) continue to exist.
As some of us tried repeatedly to point out in 2012, Gingrich is the quintessential beltway insider.
It was ironic that many on FR have wanted to see him debate Obama. They claimed that would the debate of the century. However, Gingrich lost to the guy who lost to the guy who lost to Obama. Gingrich lost BOTH of the Florida primary debates to Romney.
