Newt Gingrich Predicts Dems Could Lose The House Because of Bernie - www.foxnews.com

Excerpts from article:

...Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., told "Hannity" Friday that while Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., has a "distant possibility of winning" the presidency in November, there's a much better chance that his candidacy brings an end to Nancy Pelosi's tenure as House Speaker.

...So, it could end up being one of the great historic campaigns in American history." Host Dan Bongino suggested that Sanders' campaign is similar to those of George McGovern, Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis, all of whom lost on emphatic fashion to Republicans during the late 20th century.

...Gingrich agreed, adding that former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg has tried to make that exact case. "The challenge here is something very different -- Bernie Sanders essentially is a bumper sticker," he said. "It is a 'Gosh, I'd love a nice future where I didn't have to pay back my student loans, where everything was free, where somebody took care of me.' -- And Sanders represents in that sense a sort of a myth.
