Newt Has High Hopes for 2010, 2012

Newt Gingrich offered some big predictions for the upcoming elections:
Republicans who may want President Barack Obama's job flocked to the town they love to hate this weekend and repeatedly ripped into the Democrat, an early tryout of sorts for the GOP nomination.

"Barack Obama has created at least three jobs that I know of: Bob McDonnell, Chris Christie and Scott Brown," former House speaker Newt Gingrich told a fawning crowd Saturday, celebrating recent GOP victories in governor's races in Virginia and New Jersey, and the Senate in Massachusetts, respectively.

He predicted Republicans would take back control of Congress this fall and added: "We'll elect a new president in 2012."

I'm not ready to predict big enough gains in 2010 to flip both houses of Congress, but I tend to agree with Newt that that Obama will not be returned to office in 2012.
