Gingrich Says Budget Deal is Good Politics

Newt Gingrich told ABC News that the bipartisan budget agreement is “brilliant politics” that will allow Republicans to keep the heat on Obamacare and avoid the terrible optics of more government shutdowns.

Said Gingrich: “I think this is mediocre policy and brilliant politics. It doesn’t get them what they want on policy terms, but it strips away the danger that people will notice anything but Obamacare. And the longer the country watches Obamacare, the more likely the Democrats are to lose the Senate.”
