Newt praises supporters' intelligence

Presidential candidate Newt Gingrich, in a fundraising email to supporters, praised the intelligence of Americans interested in his ideas, and predicted that he would win the presidential election.

“It is truly a blessing to witness the intelligence and perseverance of the American people as I travel our great nation,” he wrote. “The people who are standing with this campaign have rejected reality TV politics, and they hunger for the kind of nuanced debate worthy of our national history.”
