Newt Gingrich wins South Carolina primary

[andym]

81. Newt is the most dangerous GOP candidate

Even with his high unfavorables and his sordid past, he is capable of firing up the right. He is also quite a capable debater and is passionate. He can think on his feet. He actually believes his right-wing rhetoric, unlike Romney who appears to be an opportunist. That said, the election will hinge on the economy in the two months before the election.

The best thing about Gingrich, is that it gives cover to Obama to be more populist and I hope he continues to move in that direction. Because if President Obama gets fired up with populism, he will likely win.
