Gingrich will never attract the college-educated crowd. It was under his Congress that the most educated areas such as NJ, Eastern PA, Long Island and South FL moved sharply toward the Dems. Check out the 1996 trend map and you'll see.
The Ohio strategy will work best nationally and in Virginia. I dont think there's much resistance among even upper-middle class voters to bringing millionaires tax rates back to the Clinton era or a tad higher.
Wonkish can't possibly think Gingrich will play well in Montgomery County Pa, In Jefferson County CO, In Loudoun County, Va.
Surely he can't be that naive.
Jeffco will go republican. I live there. The Senate race was barely lost there because the entire race was run on abortion (good strategy for the deems but what to screw the public on what matters- the ECONOMY), AG, SOS, Treasurer all won it though and Suthers won in a landslide AFTER challenging ObamaCare. There also is a significant mormon population in north Jeffco that will obviously vote Romney, but will come out in masses against Obama.
