Wayne is an old friend," he said. "If only for his leadership on the Chesapeake Bay, he was a person worthy to be in Congress.
That's one hell of an endorsement. It was almost as tepid as former Lt. Gov. Michael Steele:
In 2006, "the American people basically slapped us upside the head," he
said, adding that they demand "we get it right. ... We cannot get there
by trying to beat Republicans."
Sure enough Mike. The American people justifiably slapped the GOP upside the head precisely because we supported the likes of Wayne Gilchrest, Arlen Specter, Lincoln Chafee, and a slew of hogs who had bellied up to the Bush-endorsed trough of "borrow and spend". The party of Reagan had totally abandoned its principles of fiscal responsibility and small government.
While I certainly am disappointed at Gingrich even appearing at a (pre-primary) fundraiser for Gilchrest, at least Newt didn't lower himself by claiming that Gilchrest is a man of principle.

My boss is great guy, sometimes I think he might be too nice.
One thing is for sure, that no matter who did what, at the end of the day all the problems are his, flat out and he'll be the first to say so.
Instead of blaming everyone but yourself, why don't you fess up mayor?
Newt & Steele have lost a lot of credibility yesterday. It's a real shame when poeple you trusted, supported & campaigned for, stick a knife in your back.
GOPAC can kiss my back!!!
I don't care what they said or didn't say. The fact they were both there cheering for that Liberal Wayne, is shameful.
