Gingrich Comments on Huckabee and Republican Nomination
Gingrich said Huckabee “is doing an amazing job. The more people watch him, the more they believe in him. ‘He’s very comfortable with himself’ is the phrase I hear most often.”
“People tend to underestimate him. This is a man who got over 40 percent of the African-American vote in Arkansas, getting re-elected as Governor. He has a very attractive personality. He’s a small-state person running in Iowa where I think the style of small-state Arkansas goes over pretty well in small-town Iowa.”
Sean Hannity then questioned Gingrich, “What do the Republicans need to do to beat Hillary, assuming she’s the nominee? What do they need to focus on?”
“Three things,” said the former Speaker of the House. “Be for very real change, represent clearly the values of the American people…and force Senator Clinton or the Democratic nominee, whoever it is, to choose between the values of the left and the values of the vast majority of Americans … If they do that in a positive, issue-oriented way, I think that they have a very real chance of turning 2008 into a historic referendum.”
I think he is very right on this. It is very important that whoever the GOP nominee may be, he must be positive and focus on issues and not on mud-slinging. The American people desire this, and this could very easily lead to a Republican returning to the White House.
