Newt Gingrich and Nancy Pelosi on Climate Change
Newt Ginrich on Paul Ryan's Health Care Proposal
Dana Milbank from the Washington Post wrote an interesting post about former House Speaker and 2012 presidential candidate Newt Gingrich. In the post he stated that Newt Gingrich is entirely "too moderate" in the field of presidential candidates and doesn't do an adequate job of posing himself as the anti-Mitt Romney. Milbank gives examples of issues where he waffles on such as climate change when he made an appearance with former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to warn of the dangers of global warning. Back this past May he said the budget plan that Republican Congressman Paul Ryan put forth amounts to "right-wing" social engineering. Newt Gingrich has also supported individual mandates that require Americans to purchase health insurance.
The problem with Newt Gingrich is he's too wishy-washy. You can't trust what he says. I find it very astounding that he's risen to the top of the polls regarding Republican candidates. Gingrich is no alternative to President Obama. If he wins the Republican nomination next year, I guarantee you Gingrich will lose handily to President Obama. Gingrich has way too much baggage he carries with him. Gingrich is a brilliant man and does a good service when it comes to dispensing his intellectual knowledge when writing books. However, he has no business in politics. He's spent 20 years in Congress. He's proven that he's no principle conservative. He's nothing but a tool of the globalists. Gingrich is not a counterweight to President Obama. If Gingrich wins the nomination, then I project a third-party candidate will run giving a voice to conservative values and that will split the conservative vote. However, regardless whether there's a third party candidate or not, Gingrich will not win the presidency. As much as I'm not favorable towards Mitt Romney, I would much rather vote for Romney than Gingrich. Gingrich has been in politics for a long time. He needs to leave politics alone and devote his time to serving this country in other ways. Click on the above link to read Milbank's perspective on Newt Gingrich.
