He has said quite a bit. Some of it is upthread.

So you’ve crossed Newt off based on LSM mantras about Freddie, an organization he recommended needed MORE regulation and should not be bailed out? What, he should have recommended the opposite?

The level of discourse on the part of Newt bashers on this thread is convincing me to vote FOR Newt.

PS Every consulting agreement I have signed explicitly includes NOT disclosing billing rates except as required by law (eg total amount for taxes and the like). Most have included a clause about not even disclosing who I was doing the consulting for or the existence of the consulting. And I have signed dozens.

So you’ve crossed Newt off based on his responses to the issue. Pretty much but I guess he can get back on it.

Gingrich Group should have a standard billing rate that is not part of any non-disclosure agreement. Further, it should be able to reveal how it billed ( hours, flat fee, retainer whatever)

Further, it should be able to reveal how many persons worked on the consulting.

Further, Newt should say why GSE's should be able to bind consultants on governmental policy to non-disclosure agreements. What IP are they trying to protect? What competitors do they want to keep from getting a strategic advantage?

Sorry if these really-not-so-tough questions for a guy who wants to be be prez bothers you.
