Gingrich – A Savant
I think that history’s judgment will tend towards Gingo as a savant, of sorts. If one can be a savant of mendacity, Gingo’s precisely that. He is, at best, slightly above aversge for Lake Wobegon. Yet, he’s not “responsible” – none of us are – for innate intelligence. As a savant of mendacity, though, he doess make the absolute most of what he has, and is of Olympian stature when compared with all others. Nixon may now sleep soundly and, finally, peacefully.
