Something I didn’t know about the removal of those Iowa Supreme Court judges last fall:

GINGRICH WOOS EVANGELICALS AS HE EYES PRESIDENTIAL BID

There is probably not a second in any given day in which Gingrich isn’t scheming of some way to chart his future political success. In this case he laid groundwork in Iowa for his likely next election bid well in advance of any announcement.

Yet getting Obama to reverse himself on DOMA was like pulling teeth. Gingrich is nuts but we’re still making the deal with the devil with Democrats. GITMO is still open and we’re still pouring in trillions into the military-industrial complex in Afghanistan and Iraq. We also never got a public option on health care and instead decided to force people to buy health care from multi-national health insurance corporations who are only still raising their healthcare premiums. Now. While I agree that Gingrich and his ilk are even worse. The alternative, i.e. Democrats, aren’t much better.
