When your own party shrills
turn against you, it's time to go back to Crawford. Former Republican Speaker Newt Gingrich has gone on the record attacking Bush for "failing to win the hearts and minds" of the Iraqi people. Comparing the Iraq war to Vietnam, Gingrich laments that we've become too focused on military might, and forgotten that victory in Iraq depends on the goodwill of the Iraqi people.
For what it's worth, Gingrich also has a PhD in History.
