The Inexplicable Political Suicide of Newt Gingrich: WTF?

By John W. Lillpop


Talk about a WTF calamity!

Perhaps the only way that Newt Gingrich could have muffed the roll-out of his presidential campaign with greater devastation would be by endorsing President Obama for reelection!

Some will argue that that is actually what the former Speaker of the U.S. accomplished with his cutting remarks which included an apparent endorsement of the mandates set forth in ObamaCare.

Referring to the Paul Ryan’s deficit cutting proposals as “right-wing social engineering” added to Newt’s desperate act of political suicide.

How in the world can a man of Gingrich’s alleged intelligence and vast experience in national Republican politics blunder so grievously?

Surely Newt must be aware of the fact that the Republican Party is in the majority in the U.S. House, with a good chance of winning majority status in the U.S. Senate after the 2012 elections, due in no small part to public outrage over the socialized entitlement called ObamaCare?

Indeed, ObamaCare has unified Republicans, inspired independents to rethink their allegiances, and has painted President Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid as the reckless scalawags that they are.

ObamaCare has been ideological mana from heaven for the GOP—and Newt Gingrich aligns himself with Obama, Pelosi, and Reid?

WTF, Newt? Have you lost your bloody mind?
