I must say that, for once, Mr. Otis Page has made a point that I can agree with (“Gingrich presents a two-party dilemma,” Dec. 15). With his record in Congress demonstrating no ethics whatsoever, with his total willingness to accept millions of dollars for endorsing the most corrupt corporate criminals both in the United States and in other countries, and his unlimited capacity for delusional arrogance whenever he steps in front of a television camera, I think it is entirely possible that Newt Gingrich might make an attempt to “assume dictatorial powers” if he were elected president.
I’m sure he did not mean to, but Mr. Page has given us the strongest argument in favor of keeping President Obama in the White House for another four years that I have yet heard during this entire election circus.
