Newt Is a ‘Yes’

A Gingrich statement via e-mail on whether he’d vote for the tax deal: “Yes, it is the best deal that could be expected from a Democrat-controlled lame-duck Congress. Take the deal so that income taxes do not rise thus avoiding further economic damage. The new Congress with a Republican-controlled House can come back in January to enact a job-creating prosperity agenda the Democrats rejected.”

The chart again as it stands:
