Question

“I would bet for most of you, you go home in the next two weeks while your members of Congress are home and you look at them in the eye and you say, ‘What is your positive replacement for Obamacare?’ and they will have zero answer,” Gingrich told state party chairs, activists, and operatives at the Republican National Committee summer meeting. “We are caught up right now in a culture – and you see it every single day – where as long as we are negative, as long as we are vicious, as long as we can tear down our opponent, we don’t have to worry, so we don’t.

“This is a very deep problem,” he added. “I’m being totally candid with you.”

Newt is right..Republicans should worry, they can&#x27;t just tear down their opponents and be negative. They need to start playing the power game better than their opponents.. keep fighting hard and be extra vigilant,,,because evil never sleeps..

they all need to go and take their term limits and graft with them....they have destroyed any respect politicians ever had if they had any.

Newt is right about the GOP having nothing besides being anti-Obama but the reality is that the GOP base only wants to be anti-Obama and that is who GOP politicians are afraid of.

Funny thing is that he mentioned nothing like this during his run for President. Only thing I remember is that he would put a man on Mars and make gas $2.00 a gallon???
