We Only Have One Opponent

"For days, there's been talk of a Newt Gingrich boomlet in the Republican presidential race here in Iowa.  After Friday night's Reagan Dinner at Hy-Vee Hall in downtown Des Moines, that Gingrich boomlet talk might turn into talk of a Gingrich boom." Read the entire article here, http://campaign2012.washingtonexaminer.com/article/gingrich-big-winner-key-iowa-event.  As I have mentioned before, Newt Gingrich has consistently put the country before his campaign, indicating a proper perspective on the presidency.  On Friday, Iowa voters acknowledged this, praising Gingrich for his statement, "I am here with very fine competitors, but no opponents. We only have one opponent, and that's Barack Obama." 

For any historians in the crowd, check out this story about William F. Buckley, http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2011/11/05/god_and_man_at_yale_turns_60_111964.html.  For those who are unfamiliar, add Let Us Talk of Many Things: The Collected Speeches of William F Buckley to your reading list.  Also, view the online version of his famous publication, National Review, http://www.nationalreview.com.  Buckley greatly informs the conservative movement we know today and deserves the attention of conservatives who want to influence society.
