Gingrich: Obama makes me irrational

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0112/71336.html

“I’m here to implore one thing of you. I think you’ve missed the target on the way you’re addressing Romney’s weaknesses. I want to beg you to redirect and go after his obvious disingenuous about his conservatism and lay off the corporatist versus the free market. I think it’s nuanced,” Dean Glossop, an Army Reservist from Inman, S.C., said.

“I agree with you,” Gingrich said. “It’s an impossible theme to talk about with Obama in the background. Obama just makes it impossible to talk rationally in that area because he is so deeply into class warfare that automatically you get an echo effect. … I agree with you entirely.”

Um, Newtie...you've always been irrational.

Gee Newt, "some people" might say those self-identified weaknesses sort of disqualify you from being President. Perhaps you should end your campaign and use the leftover funds to consult with a good psychiatrist? You might still have a chance at a normal life.

I'm sure no one else on the planet would fluster him to his normal point of irrationality. Right?

Putz.

Is *STRICTLY* the fault of Fox, Limbaugh, and the GOP.
