Former Speaker Newt Gingrich believes it is and he has developed a compelling approach to new and better politics not seen since the days of Abraham Lincoln. ~Cal Thomas

He believes in illegally raising large armies to kill his enemies and occupying their lands?  Or perhaps he believes in imprisoning his critics and shutting down opposition newspapers?  Or perhaps he is in favour of dissolving dissident legislatures by force of arms?  All of those would indeed remind us of the heady days of Lincoln.  Such might be the “new and better politics” that would appeal to the likes of Cal Thomas.

Oh, actually he means holding a series of debates.  How predictable and dull!
