Yes, good point. I've long felt that the two most influential Republicans of the modern era, without ever attaining the White House, are Gingrich and Mitch McConnell.

Given his goal of owning the libs lock, stock, and barrel, I suspect he relishes the fact that millions of them aspire to piss on his grave once he is gone.
