Establishment
attacks Newt

Viral 1988 C-SPAN video of Newt bashing Reagan is BOGUS...

RiehlWorldView.com:

"It's edited to give a false impression. What you don't see is immediately after when Gingrich praises Reaganism and the Reagan platform....
Gingrich was merely saying, Bush isn't Reagan and the GOP needs something new to sell...

 

 

Limbaugh: Coordinated avalanche against Newt doesn't match my memory of Reagan years...

"all this stuff that hit Drudge and everywhere else last night about Newt telling everybody the country goes to hell if they continue Reaganism and that Newt insulted Reagan and that the Reagan administration failed and Iran-Contra... I never heard any of that... and I was just as immersed in national politics then as I am now...

 

Drudge, conservative media drop  bombs on Newt...

... Drudge Report, National Review, American Spectator, Ann Coulter, Tom DeLay are all unloading on Newt Gingrich...

 

Tyrell: Gingrich is our Bill Clinton...

"Newt and Bill, as 1960s self-promoters, share the same duplicity, ostentatious braininess and propensity for endless scrapes with propriety and the law. They are tireless hustlers..."

 

Bob Dole goes nuclear on Newt...

... writes Dole:

"If Gingrich is the nominee it will have an adverse impact on Republican candidates running for county, state, and federal offices..."

... Gingrich and Dole were well known to be tense during the 1990s...

 

 

 

Newt

"the fact that Newt was ousted
from his leadership role
by his own party reminds me of someone else who had her own party turn on her -- Margaret Thatcher..." 
-
Melissa O'Sullivan

 

What really happened in the Gingrich ethics case...

... The Gingrich ethics case was extraordinarily complex, intensely partisan, and driven in no small way by a personal vendetta on the part of one of Gingrich's former political opponents...

...a special counsel hired by the House Ethics Committee held Gingrich to an astonishingly strict standard of behavior...

...the case was then referred to the IRS, which conducted an exhaustive investigation...

...the IRS concluded that Gingrich did nothing wrong. After all the struggle, Gingrich was exonerated.

 

Gingrich's exoneration of ethics charges...

 

Gingrich staffer admits witnesses claim was wrong...

... Gingrich spokesman R.D. Hammond says the only people the Gingrich campaign offered to ABC to refute ex-wife Marianne's story were his two daughters from his first marriage...

 

William F. Buckley nephew defends Gingrich ...

... regarding Newt Gingrich's commitment to Reagan's principles, Brent Bozell II said flatly of Newt:

"when you look at the big picture, and you look at the totality of the years with Reagan, and you look at what happened after the years of Reagan... I don't think you can question Newt's commitment to the Reagan principles."

 

 

Mitt

Romney fails to disclose Swiss bank account on financial forms...

... The campaign had maintained that it was not necessary to disclose the Swiss account in Romney's tax returns for 2010 because Romney's money manager, Brad Malt, had shuttered it in early 2010...

 

Romney 1994: I'm not trying to return to Reagan-Bush...

 

Gallup: Gingrich erases Romney's national lead...

... Newt Gingrich has all but erased Mitt Romney's 23-point lead of a week ago among GOP voters nationally... they are now essentially tied at 29 for Romney and 28 for Gingrich...

 

 

Pelosi hints, then denies she has Gingrich secrets...

... on Wednesday, Pelosi spokesman Drew Hammill said:

"The 'something' leader Pelosi knows is that Newt Gingrich will not be president of the United States..."

 

Pelosi video: Gingrich will never be president...
