Newt Gingrich Wants Sarah Palin to Tone It Down

Sarah Palin has to “slow down and be more careful and think through what she’s saying and how she’s saying it,” Newt Gingrich, a potential opponent of Palin’s in the upcoming GOP presidential primary, said on GMA this morning. Just off the top of our heads, for example, she probably shouldn’t have said that the Obama administration “represents as great a threat to America as Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union once did,” or that Obama is an “authentically dishonest” con man with a Kenyan worldview. Wait, our bad, that was Gingrich.
