      In an article from Albuquerque, New Mexico the author addresses how Gingrich views on poverty and schools in the inner city. According to the article, a little less than a month ago at a speech Newt delivered at Harvard University. In his speech he stated that perhaps the best way to break the cycle of poverty is to have  a lot of these kids develop a work ethic. In his example he described their work as that of a cleaning job. This is extremely significant, for it demonstrates how Newt is capable of putting his foot in his mouth easily. It is important for Newt to be extremely careful about a statement such as that one. Those statements will cause him to loose voters to Barack if he is indeed the one to make it to the general election,. Newt will also have to step up his game. He needs to get better during the debates and he also needs to to have his political advisers do a better job when it comes to damage control. Lastly, this area where this article is from is a swing state, and the article i believe might clearly portray why he needs to be more careful.
