So what you're saying is that none of the ideas expressed in the Gingrich article have a shred of validity? He committed crimes such as proposing a political approach that took control of the US House away from the democrats in the face of the gentle America loving honest Clinton's wishes otherwise. They haven't gotten it back since. He committed crimes such as espousing term limits, and they haven't happened. In fact a lot of voters that have rethought their position on term limits are criminals too? The stuff he, and others espoused in the 90's didn't happen instantaneously so therefore its all a failure. Given that, you're right. Let's just fold up our tents and never ever again enter the arena of ideas again. Let's just let the democrats have it all. They know best.
