Did you read “conservatives” were unhappy with Newt in that article? YES! it’s there. Make Newt lemonade all you want, and dump a lot of sugar in it, to make it palatable.
Yes, I did read “conservatives”. I also noted those they attributed the moniker to. Hardly rock bed conservatives in my view. More like country club Republicans in my estimation.
Again, if they were kicking Newt out so that they could govern more conservatively, what happened? Did they accomplish all that they said Newt wasn’t doing, or did they drift waaaay to the middle in order to conserve their power? Hmmm
Newt is far from perfect, but this article is quite disingenuous. Just look at the record of accomplishments between the Newt era & post Newt. The rank hypocrisy of these guys is somewhat stunning to me.
