Newt Gingrich, initially opposed to the Medicare privatizing "Ryan Budget" has gone crawling on his knees before the outraged forces of wingnuttery.
I was once of the opinion that Palin, Santorum and Bachmann would likely be the first and best harlequins out of the the GOP Presidential Klown Kar...But honestly after one week of Gingrich on the hustings, I'm saying top honors belong to Newt.
This was a particularly cowardly performance given the vehemence of his initial opposition, but we've seen this before with Newt, he howls and threatens like a spoiled brat and collapses at the first pushback.
And like Mitt Romney he can't take a "right hook".
In contrast to Former State Senator Scott Brown who floated a pro-Ryan trial balloon in Newburyport before running for cover at the first sign of rain. Wisely Brown avoided any brutal Gingrichian rhetoric when he toyed with the idea of vouchering Grandma to death. So his subsequent performance is merely the usual backdown we've come to expect from Scott. It lacks Gingrich's forays into low comedy.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, "Yes on Monday means No by Friday" with Scott.
I give him credit though, he is fixated on re-election with a forensic intensity that puts Mitt Romney to shame.
