Newt Gingrich: Republicans Have ‘Zero’ Ideas For Health Care

Posted by | August 15, 2013 13:13 | Filed under: Top Stories


There is no “replace” for the stated Republican goal of “repeal and replace,” and Newt knows it.

Gingrich, who was speaking at the opening session of the Republican National Committee’s summer meeting, fielded a question about “Obamacare” and recalled that Republicans were able to block Bill Clinton’s health care reform effort in 1994 because they had “a positive alternative approach” to health care.

But Republicans today have nothing comparable to offer, Gingrich told nearly the 200 state party chairs, operatives and activists gathered in Boston for the conference.

“I will bet you, for most of you, you go home in the next two weeks when your members of Congress are home, and you look them in the eye and you say, ‘What is your positive replacement for Obamacare?’ They will have zero answer,” Gingrich said.
