Captain Ed interviews Newt Gingrich on 'American Solutions Day.' Some excerpts:
On Republican consultants: "Let me be clear. I think Republican consultants are mostly very stupid. I think they have no education. I think they have no sense of history."On African-American voters: "No group in America has been served worse by government than the African-American community."
Also, this: "Other than Huckabee, none of these [Republican] candidates have the gumption to place themselves in the middle of that [African-American] environment ..."
On the current crop of candidates: "The most sobering thing about where we are right now is that the most effective candidate in the race is -- Hillary Clinton. ... Her answers are wrong, [but] she is a serious, competent, formidable person."
Doesn't sound like someone who isn't running to me...
