I went back and reviewed his record. He’s far from a big government RINO. As a pro-life congressman he was a Reagan Coalition member and Reagan Revolution fighter. As Speaker he led his new Republican majority (the Republican Revolution) to pass the Contract with America, cut the deficit, cut the taxes, reform welfare, block Clinton’s agenda, balanced the budget four years running, and extended the Reagan economy through the nineties. Not a bad job for a RINO. As a historian and an appreciator of our Christian Founding and our founding principle that our unalienable rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness are a gift of God, he’s a natural fit for the TEA Party Rebellion.

By the way, Gallup's polls last week said the same thing about Gingrich leading Romney and all others among tea party and Republican conservatives:

It ain't no fluke and it's not just NBC lies. Gingrich is killing them in the debates and the polls. Tea party folks and the conservative base are flocking to him.

You know what sparked my interest in Gingrich? A year or so ago he was on Greta’s show. She asked what his biggest mistake was as Speaker. He said he failed to teach the Republicans how to lead as the majority party. They’d been the minority party for so many years and had to play ball by the majority’s rules that when they became the majority themselves they didn’t know how to take control and be on offense so-to-speak. He intimated that the Republicans have been too accommodating and not used their power as the majority to implement conservative ideals.

And in my opinion, that is exactly why we are where we are today. We let the Democrats call the shots and get away with their underhanded tactics in every aspect of our lives. It has to stop. We need a conservative leader who will call them out and put an end to their corrupt dealings.
