The Case For Gingrich

My ThinkProgress colleagues' hit on Newt Gingrich for flip-flopping on Libya and then flopping again via Facebook is nice, but the fact is that Gingrich is a pretty admirable political leader.

It seems to me that we need more of that kind of leadership from Republicans, not less, and that progressives ought to welcome Gingrich's return to prominence in GOP circles. Or has he changed on this issue too?
