Gingrich on the state of the GOP

Via the Daily Dish, Newt speaks the truth about today’s GOP:

“They went off the rails. That’s it. They took a majority that took 16 years to build and they destroyed it … There was a fundamental misunderstanding about how to govern. The concept of red versus blue is a tactic, not a strategy. In the long run, in order to mobilize your base, you tend to become more intense and your positions become more vitriolic, and you drive away the independents. Then you are no longer a majority,” – Newt Gingrich on what has happened to the GOP over the last eight years.
