Tonight, on CNN, the final debate before the ever so important South Carolina primary, started with a home run, a grand slam from which CNN never recovered.
The first pitch was a waist high fastball which Newt sent well beyond the upper deck.
John King asked Newt if he would like to respond to the hit piece ABC plans to air later tonight regarding Gingrich’s ex wife.
What happened next was CLASSIC Newt and it answered the questions of how conservative voters in South Carolina would feel about the topic.
Newt BLASTED the moderator and the crowd responded with a STANDING OVATION!!!
The moment, the question, the answer, the response by the crowd and the hammering of CNN is what those who saw it will be talking about tomorrow AND Saturday as voters in South Carolina head off to cast their ballots.
I predicted earlier today that the ABC hit piece would not have the desired effect and judging by the audience at the debate tonight, I was correct.
John King may well be seeking medical help right now as Newt literally tore him apart.
If you missed the moment, the winning moment of this debate…Here it is.
