During C-SPAN's 11/13/09 Cable Center Class, Newt Gingrich tells students that RNC chair Michael Steele is developing First Principles for the 2010 midterm elections. Gingrich, who authored the GOP's 1994 Contract with America, offers his thoughts on what the 2010 principles should be.

  • LOL, yea he was a true leader alright.

    He led a lot of interns to the space under his desk.

  • Deregulation doesn't help large corporations. They are already setup and have more leverage to react to regulation changes. Deregulation helps small businesses because it reduces the hurdles they have to overcome in order to setup.

    Money doesn't equal a quality education. California's education has increased over the last decade with some of the least amount of $ spent per pupil. At the other end D.C. schools are failing despite the money spent on them.

  • Total fake intellectual, historian my ass...he is just a good actor

  • what a phony ...compelete fraud and corporate whore

  • Dump the neo-cons. Re-read and apply the tenets of the original GOP platform (i.e. back to President Lincoln's era) as well as former Senator Barry Goldwater's platform.

    Hmmm - the contract of 1994 did not accomplish much except further bankrupt our country on multiple levels. So why write yet another contract; especially one that, yet again, is written in sand?

  • Who cares what this "family values" adulterer has to say?

  • Gingrich 2012 !!!

  • I don't know why so many people hate him. He has so many great ideas, it's the damn liberals that derailed them.

  • Newt's new Contract, clearly, is an attempt to short-circuit pro-liberty dynamics of our time, from the Paul movement, to the tea parties, to end/audit the Fed, the state sovereignty efforts et al, and once again replace it with a counterfeit agenda. You can't teach an old dog new tricks.

  • Newt's Contract in 1994 was successful, in that it worked to co-opt the momentum of the term limits, land rights, militia, 10th Amendment, etc liberty movements of the mid-'90's. It derailed all those efforts, and pulled all the focus back to the left-right paradigm, whereupon Gingrich fell on his sword and led the GOP to its cave-in to the Clinton regime after the OKC bombing.

  • GOP nazi's like gingrich have spent 8 of the last 9 years screwing the middle class!
