If Gingrich is the nominee, Democrats should focus 100% on the House and Senate

Absolutely. There is no way Gingrich can defeat Obama. He comes off as a complete assh*le, and will bring down every Republican running for Congress. America can say hello to Senators Heitkamp, Warren, Carmona, and Donnelly if Gingrich is the nominee, and another tenure for Pelosi as Speaker of the House. I would like to know what these purists are smoking that makes them somehow think Gingrich can win.

Remember they said this "unlikeable dysfunctional damaged goods asshole" "stood no chance".



Guess the Pubbies who made that assumption in 1992 wrong in that assumption?



Lesson learned" Assuming your candidate is going to win because the other guy is flawed" has the karma to come back and bite you in the ass.

Gingrich is no Clinton. Unlike Gingrich, Clinton actually had a likeable personality, and was able to articulate solutions to the economy that didn't make him seem like a radical liberal like Democrats had been accused of nominating since Carter. Gingrich talking about ending child labor laws, and how poor people are in their situation because they never had any positive role models in their lives is not going to get him elected.
