Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman should blast Newt Gingrich, Washington insider and influence peddler

By Brent Budowsky - 11/30/11 02:41 PM ET

For details, check out the New York Times story that includes a long list of Newt Gingrich doing what most Americans call lobbying and all Americans call influence peddling.

Ron Paul should blast this to the heavens. Paul's very correct analysis suggests that some in business are not great at doing business, but great at crony capitalism, using insider access to make money. Paul is right, and Gingrich is guilty. I hope Ron Paul makes this a major issue.

Ditto Jon Huntsman, who correctly criticizes Romney for being dependent on banking donations and being an agent of the status quo. Huntsman should direct his fire, along with Ron Paul ,at the Newt Gingrich crony-capitalism, pay-for-play machine that is incredible even by the lowest standards of the greediest inside-Washington players.
