It has already started... newt is his own worst enemy... he always telegraphs the real newt... he cannot help himself... even when he knows that he will suffer right wing blow back... just as he did in the You Tube video of his montage of FDR love...
http://www.businessinsider.com/hey-remember-when-newt-gingrich-thought-progressive-fdr-was-the-greatest-president-of-the-20th-century-2011-12#ooid=M5Ym40MzoHl7iiX9QcxHsPG9Rlo0C4Hi
where newt says, "I have said it before... and it always gets me in hot water with the right... but I think that the greatest President of the modern era... the Greatest President of the 20th Century... was Franklin Delano Roosevelt".
From his embracing of fdr as the best President of the last Century... to his voting for the Brady Bill and the Lautenberg Bill... to his alliance with the UN and CFR... progressivism runs long... it runs deep and it runs continuously throughout newt's career.

However, on another thread I made an observation about Reagan and that issue. Reagan was not a member of CFR but he knew that that group has sewn up elections in this country since the early 1920s, although their first huge victory was the election of Woodrow Wilson before WWI. Reagan knew that in order to accomplish his short range goals he was going to have to toe the CFR line in appointments and staffing for their long range objectives. That's why he chose GHWB as his veep. Bush was a former Director of CFR and if you'll recall he was the one who actually much later during his own Presidency coined the phrase New World Order into the modern lexicon. Then Reagan proceeded to staff every single one of his cabinet secretaries and their deputies down about six levels with CFR members. It's not like he was dancing to their tune, but he knew all the musicians and all the songs and he was willing to "hum along" in order to get the job done. HIS job done. That is a simple fact of political life in this country. I mean in addition to being CFR both the Bush's are also BONESMEN as well! Talk about elitist cabals!
Nothing of substance gets done in American politics unless it has the CFR stamp of approval and that goes for both major parties and most 3rd parties, too. Everybody knows this has been the case since the creeping incremental takeover of our government by the shadow players in the 1920's. Later came Bilderbergers. The best that we can hope for at this point is that Newt will choose a real veep with deep conservative convictions like Bachmann or Perry or Cain. Then we can only hope that he really DOES choose Bolton for State and Palin for Energy and .... well you get the idea. If he has enough conservatives (real Patriots) in his cabinet, they will keep him in line or they'll blow the whistle when needed to call out the militia to remind him from whence real power flows in a Constitutional Republic. Likewise we can hope for a more solidly conservative Congress.
