The Churchill - Gingrich comparison has been discussed on prior threads. Several writers have noted the similarities of their journeys of early success and ignominious time spent in political exile.
The comparisons have not included their beginnings i.e. Churchill’s aristocracy, military adventures, Parliamentary victories vs. Gingrich’s modest childhood and professorial accomplishment which contrast strength of will and character.
Their life stories are both compelling for the perilous times in which they lived and how their countrymen looked to Churchill for inspiration and now to Newt for common sense and purpose.
Churchill wasn't for sale to the highest bidder, like Newt.
The biggest difference was that Churchill always put what was best for Britain first and foremost. Newt's decisions are based primarily on what’s best for Newt.
