-Democratic strategist Paul Begala on Newt Gingrich, who has surged toward the top of the Republican presidential primary field in recent polls. Begala, a veteran of the Clinton White House who sparred regularly with the former House Speaker during the 1990s, said history suggests that Gingrich’s “bombast” will wear on GOP voters.
“God bless him, the more people get to know him, the less they like him. Voters do not like this man.”
