The Long March of Newt Gingrich: Part Four
Clip: Season 1996 Episode 3 | 5m
Newt arrives in Congress with two dreams: becoming speaker of the House and building a Republican majority. He learns controversy is a way to attract attention and he seizes on new media, like C-Span, to attack the enemy and recruit his own political army. To defeat the Democrats, he believes Republicans must destroy their mindset as a complacent minority, willing to compromise.
