Gingrich already did a tour of the country with Al Sharpton promoting education reform. It had the members of FR in an uproar and they said they'd never vote for the guy...how quickly people forget.
A little 'drive by' attack on Newt, eh? Seems that is a regular part of your posting history.
Here's some facts about Newt promoting education reform (that's a GOOD and needed thing) ....
Yes, Newt should have known better that 0 is a total liar and owned by the Teacher's unions that would never let this happen. But what Newt was promoting, the increase of and financial support for charter schools, was right and conservative.
You've got to do a lot of selective forgetting and revisionist history with Newt.
Btw, Michael Steele when head of RNC was thoroughly vilified on this forum when it was rumored RNC made a donation to Sharpton. It was never documented or proven, but that didn't make any difference because of the opportunity to bash Steele.
