What’s Next For The Newster?

This morning with the Counter at the lower right hand corner of the Whistleblower Web Page continuing to click off the days, hours, minutes, and seconds until John Boehner’s “scheduled last day in Congress,” this morning at The Conservative Agenda, Political Insiders were asking Beloved Whistleblower Publisher Charles Foster Kane how The Blower’s little joke about the possibility of Newt Gingrich’s becoming the Interim Speaker of the House turned out.

It all began with yesterday’s Special “Chaos in Congress Update” E-dition when The Blower explained: House rules do not require that a nominee be a member of Congress, the punch line was “Do you think Newt would like to have his old job back?”

The next thing we knew, Sean Hannity was following The Blower’s lead and asking The Newster the same thing on the radio. The former Speaker initially denied any interest in a return to Congress, but finally admitted he would consider it “if he had the votes.”

“If you were to say to me 218 have called you up and given you their pledge, obviously no citizen could ever turn down that kind of challenge,” Gingrich said. He compared the scenario to George Washington’s coming out of retirement to become America’s first president. “This is why George Washington came out of retirement — because there are moments you can’t avoid,” Gingrich really laid it on thick.

“At least Gingrich is being realistic about his chances, Kane explained, “Especially after Republican House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy abruptly dropped out of the race for Speaker on Thursday when he was threatened with exposure over some sex scandal rumors. The Liberal Attack Machine can hardly wait to start dredging up some of The Newster’s old peccadilloes.”

Gingrich says he would be more likely to serve as a consultant to the House GOP than as its Speaker. He said it would “be more practical” to sit down with the GOP conference “and try to help them think this through.” “I think this is a conference-wide problem,” said Gingrich, who served as the Speaker of the House from 1995 to 1999 but resigned from his position and from Congress after House Republicans challenged his leadership. Don’t forget, Newt Gingrich was instrumental in the Republican wave that took back the House for the first time in 40 years.

“Maybe Newt should take the job of ‘Thinker of the House,’ ” Kane suggested.
