In a sign that Newt Gingrich is emerging as the latest not-Romney Republican presidential frontrunner, Alexander Burns
highlights an email beginning to circulate that attacks Gingrich for
his “history of off-message and ideologically erratic comments.”
“The
email is a reminder of the challenge Gingrich faces ahead of him, if he
really has to go through the same level of vetting as other credible GOP
presidential candidates — like Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann did when
they were on the upswing in the polls. But it’s also a sign that
Gingrich’s rise is being taken seriously by his opponents inside the
party.”
