Thomas Sowell on Newt Gingrich

Read this column. He writes: 

"Those who want to concentrate on the baggage in Newt Gingrich's past, rather than on the nation's future, should remember what Winston Churchill said: 'If the past sits in judgment on the present, the future will be lost.' If that means a second term for Barack Obama, then it means lost big time."

I agree, and I've been leaning towards Gingrich myself, because of his accomplishments in the past, and also because he can hold his own in debates with Obama.  It reminds me of 2008 when we voted for McCain not because he was the greatest candidate, but because he was the best alternative to Obama.  Right now, the candidates should stop bickering and agree that their enemy (and this country's enemy) is Obama, not one another.
