1/21/12, "Newt Gingrich Wins. What It Means." Erick Erickson, RedState.com
"Newt Gingrich’s rise has a lot to do with Newt Gingrich’s debate performance. But it has just as much to do with a party base in revolt against its thought and party leaders in Washington, DC. The base is revolting because they swept the GOP back into relevance in Washington just under two years ago and they have been thanked
- with contempt ever since.
Adding insult to injury, the party and thought leaders now try to foist on the base a milquetoast moderate from Massachusetts. Newt Gingrich can thank Mitt Romney and more for the second look he is getting. Base hostility will now be exacerbated by Mitt Romney’s backers now undoubtedly making a conscious effort to prop up Rick Santorum to shut down Newt Gingrich."
---------------------------
UPDATE: John Batchelor wrote of Gingrich, the "Fat Elvis," and expanded on the topic via Mr. Batchelor's appearance on Tuesday morning's Dom Imus show.
- Batchelor said Gingrich harasses congressional members, many of whom have no idea who he is and why he's bothering them. One or more members told Batchelor that Gingrich tells some if they don't do what he wants,
- Long live the delusional, media addicted, establishment elite who silently watched Soros ascend to the Oval Office and the destruction of America, right?
