Newt, Don’t Run

National Review

Today, Newt Gingrich is set to kick off his latest ambitious project. His “Solutions Day” is aimed at coming up with a “broad set of nonpartisan solutions” that will move the government “from the world that fails to the world that works.” This Saturday, over a dozen workshops will be held nationwide to tackle a range of issues, from tax reform and reducing bureaucracy to conservation and space policy. This effort perfectly fits Newt’s reputation for bold thinking and innovative policy ideas. He is less well-suited, however, for the presidential run he continues to flirt with.
