Newt Gingrich, Loser

Newt Gingrich, Loser
Justin Raimondo, February 13, 2011

Are we to be spared nothing? Christiane Amanpour prefaces her interview with Newt Gingrich this morning on her boring Sunday tv program by saying the Newtster is running for president and is fresh from the CPAC conference ­ he then bloviates on about how we "abandoned" Mubarak, and what a shame that is. What Amanpour doesn't mention is that the Newtster garnered a whopping 5 percent at the CPAC presidential poll.  So why is this loser given a slot on national television and the winner isn't? My theory: the liberal-Obama-ite media has a vested interest in holding up losers as emblematic of the Right. An anti-war, anti-Fed libertarian isn't politically correct. (Oh wait: she's also going to interview "later in the program" Tim Pawlenty ­ who got less than Newt in the CPAC poll.)
