Why Gingrich?

To me, Gingrich is far too "DC-Centric" for my taste. 

But there is something to be said for this point of view:

The Dems are absolutely terrified of Newt Gingrich in the White House.  He’s got their numbers, knows where all their bodies, living and dead, are buried, and has a history of doing more damage to their power than any single man since the advent of the FDR era.  Remember, it was Newt who broke their half-century stranglehold on the House of Representatives, the wellspring of legislation, a stranglehold they’ve never since really regained.  They fear him with a great fear, and with extremely good reason.

Well, Conservatives have the same sort of concerns, if it makes you feel any better.

    All of the candidates that are chosen for us have their plus's and minus's. As a patriotic American my vote will be for ABO.

    Yeah they all have their minuses, some more than others....like being a three time divorced, cheating, unethical piece of human garbage.

    Newt and Nancy don't see eye to eye on much of anything, but if there's one thing they both agree on it's that we have to do something about climate change...

    I've heard too many conservatives drop the "I would refuse to vote for him" on Newt.

    Both Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich supported the outrageous $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP bailouts...... For me this was their defining moment and simply can not be forgiven.

    Doesn't matter. Whomever is the GOP nominee, he/she can expect Dad29's vote, even if they are Newt or Romney.
