You're next, Newt!


Like clockwork, the White House and the media work together to gather dirt on GOP candidates, but they don't release the dirt until and unless the candidate is rising in the polls. It is as predictable as the sun coming up in the east and setting in the west. Today they are going after Newt Gingrich, who has done well in the debates and is, therefore, rising in the polls. Here is a story noting that he made a lot of money consulting for Freddy Mac, the politically connected mortgage giant, whose practices contributed mightily to the 2008 recession: http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/11/16/8838779-gingrich-cant-say-how-much-he-netted-from-freddie-consulting
