Des Moines, Iowa (CNN) - On Thursday, just over 17-years after he unveiled the first "Contract with America," former House Speaker Newt Gingrich officially proposed another campaign contract.
Flanked by two huge banners emblazoned with the title "21st Century Contract with America," Gingrich stood alone on stage and spoke to insurance company employees in Des Moines, Iowa. If he is elected president, Gingrich said, he'd immediately begin to act on the new campaign contract. But said he would need two full presidential terms to fully implement it.
You think that's just for him, or is he saying that Presidents should have two terms to enact their agenda? An interesting campaign plank, for sure!
I think some GOP and Tea Party operatives aren't going to like the sound of this Newt-gem.
On the other hand, President Obama might find he has a bit more in common with Gingrich than he thought.
