Newt Gingrich Positions Himself as a Reagan-Style Conservative

HeadlineJan 30, 2012

Newt Gingrich, who picked up an endorsement from former presidential candidate Herman Cain, has attempted to position himself as the true conservative in Florida’s race.

Newt Gingrich: “We ran a moderate in 1996, and we lost. We ran a moderate in 2008, and we lost. I think the only way to defeat Barack Obama is to run a solid conservative, who can make the case for our values, our beliefs, our programs. I’m very proud to run on a Reagan-Gingrich record and to say I want to be the best job-creation, paycheck president in American history, by focusing on jobs.”
