Gingrich Says Electing Speaker May Not Be Enough

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-GA) warned that the House GOP conference poses a “very real danger” of electing a Speaker and then in a few weeks going “back into the same mess,” The Hill reports.

Said Gingrich: “There’s a very real danger that the House will elect somebody, and three or four or five weeks from now, you’re going to have a group of people blow up and decide to go back into the same mess. So they need to pick somebody to get stability.”
