GINGRICH AS A CANDIDATE LEADER FOR THE INSURRECTION. Gingrich feels like picking a fight: " I think the Republican establishment believes it's OK to say and do virtually anything to stop a genuine insurgency from winning because they are very afraid of losing control of the old order." While one could only estimate the appeal of a "genuine insurrection" to the Republican establishment, where would Gingrich lead it? To the moon collecting rocks in his ice bucket? To my back yard? I'll call 911. There are plenty of good cops around.
