From today's NY Times, in an article on black Republicans running for Congress, is a quote from Newt Gingrich explaining that with Democrats in the majority, Republicans are "pragmatically more open to a coalition" with African-Americans:: “Things have evolved,” said Newt Gingrich. “I think partly the level of hostility to Obama, Pelosi and Reid makes a lot of people pragmatically more open to a coalition from the standpoint of being a long-term majority party.”
Welcome to the 1960's, Newt.
