Last year Newt was interviewed on a Christian show last year and was asked about his adultery and he explained that he said “I got so caught up in saving the country that I lost my moral compass.”
Mistake?
Then I saw him on FNC Your World and the sub-host called him out on his successful government shutdown in 1995 trying to get Clinton to accept budget cuts. Newt actually claimed that Clinton was the one to cave and accept the Republican budget.
Sorry but the truth is that after three weeks of shutdown voters were getting tired of it and then Newt made some comment to the press about getting a bad seat on AF1 and it was over. It was the joke of the country as SNL did a skit on it. Public opinion turned sharply against house Republicans and they sent Clinton the CR he was demanding all along. It was a humilating defeat as they paid government employees for all three weeks of the shutdown,.
Newt knows no ‘mistakes’. Newt knows no right or wrong. He is a very flawed individual with a huge ego.
Choice-Newt or Romney.
