What an extraordinarily misleading headline. Gingrich never said Palin would not be the future of the GOP, rather he said there are a number of rising stars and she is but one of them.

Technically you are correct.

However Newt is a clever man. He knew how it would be portrayed in the media. It's clearly a shot at Palin.

Agreed. Only a complete idiot would not have known how his remark would be played by the MSM, particularly after the firestorm of criticism Palin has already experienced. Gingrich should have been prepared for this kind of question. I find it incomprehensible that he would not have been.

I'm disappointed in Gingrich.

BINGO.

I've lost ALL respect for this one-time conservative, no-holds-barred conservative. Newt's now drifted into the Dark Side of RINO politics. His globalist NWO masters are no doubt proud of him.

Next stop for Newt: Kissing Bill Maher's @ss on his show.

He wanted it "portrayed in the media" that we have a lot of good choices for leader.

That's a pretty weak "shot at Palin" LOL!

I'm delighted to see the enthusiasm for The Governor, but this thinskinnedness is getting out of hand.
