Wow, that was a LOT more song and dance & smoke and mirrors than I've ever seen at any of the Guido clubs in NJ. Fact is, Gingrich was an enabler toward the federalization of the school system and actually says he has respect for the unions. That's enough for me. He's a big government "republican" through and through.
"Even after he left Congress, Gingrich would gone on to support and lobby for a $9 trillion expansion of Medicare and support the Trouble Asset Relief Program (TARP). His support of these two bills alone makes him unqualified to be the intellectual leader of any movement that supposedly supports economic policy that protects taxpayers."
Ouch! Sounds more like an Obama CV to me.
It's much too serious a matter to overlook anything on the subject. I think that his speeches and his American Solutions website make him look like another man altogether, so I appreciate your links. I will certainly spend some time reading through them.
I heard on a radio show that newt has had some very difficult mental health issues. I don't know for sure, but if he can't handle being Speaker he sure can't handle being President.
A newt/palin ticket would be great! Two nutcases for the repugs. We'd have the Christian taliban in full force in this country.

That's cute, especially for a dumbocrat; see, I can be just as stupid.
They should maybe tap Govs. Chris Christie (R-NJ) and Luis Fortuño (R/PNP-PR) for the 2012 GOP ticket. Chris Christie would win the libertarians and the fiscal conservatives, Fortuño would also win the fiscal conservative crowd as he also is battling the unions in Puerto Rico (especially the teacher unions like Chris Christie is doing), and I am convinced he would definitely get the latino vote behind him. He spoke at the RNC event and the atendees seemed very receptive of Fortuño so we might need someone like him for the 2012 election.

Christie needs to unhinge from his progressive anti-gun mindset for libertarians to even consider him. Objectively speaking, he's also way too fat (not that it would stop me from voting for him in the event he wasn't so liberal loony RE: gun control)

Unfortunately you are right. That's the problem with Republicans from solid Democrat states. They have to be anti-gun or they won't get elected. Sad to say Fortuño is the same way as well. A fiscal conservative but he isn't exactly in the 2nd Amendment camp
There are a lot of People i would never vote for President, The one i would never, is sitting in the WH. Never say never in life, could come back and bite ya!

Hopefully he was just pandering to moderates and secretly hopes that every law abiding citizen owns an arsenal of "patriot pipes".
Given that he's a straight shooter, I doubt it.
It's such a shame that honest and straightforward people like only win elections when the country is at the cusp of failure.
