How Republican conformity is ruining politics

By Michael Gerson, Published: November 17

In the GOP’s whack-a-mole primary process, Newt Gingrich is about to get thumped by conservatives.

The cause is likely to be climate policy. It is not only that Gingrich appeared next to Nancy Pelosi in a 2008 commercial calling for “action to address climate change.”

A year earlier, Gingrich argued, “The evidence is sufficient that we should move toward the most effective possible steps to reduce carbon-loading in the atmosphere.” To that end, he supported “mandatory carbon caps combined with a trading system, much like we did with sulfur.”
