Gingrich's 2012 campaign leaves him with mixed legacy
Washington (CNN) - Newt Gingrich will leave the Republican presidential campaign with a mixed legacy and a campaign deep in debt.
The former speaker was left for political dead last year after his top campaign advisers quit over a disagreement on the direction of the campaign and its financial structure. But he came roaring back in late 2011 - due in part to a Republican electorate that was not sold on Mitt Romney's candidacy. It is the past few months, though, for which he may be most remembered - for staying in the race for too long, rather than for the big ideas he espoused on the campaign trail.

Hypocritical blimp.
America is a total stupid if mitt wins this election.
Go ahead and back they loser like you, Newt Mitt. Thank God that President Obama will win re-election in Nov 2012...
He'll be back. Back on FOX. It's an election year. Newt is too big of a talent at rattling off scathing diatribes and those infamous Gingrichian verbal admonishments to let go to waste. Besides, he needs the money. He'll either be working for Romney or FOX.
Newtie will always be known to me as the hypocrite who led the charge against Clinton for getting a BJ while he himself is a serial cheater and adulterer.
Now go hide under that rock you crawled out from Grinch.
OBAMA 2012!
Newt Gingrich will leave the Republican presidential campaign with a mixed legacy and a campaign deep in debt. Newt just didn't have enough MONEY to run the hole race. VP for Newt. Remenber the history on the Republican Party.
