Oct. 7, 2011--Newt Gingrich addresses the 2011 Values Voter Summit.  Gingrich managed to get a couple of swipes at the "elite media" in the opening of his speech.  He focused his remarks on judicial supremacy, declaring "[it] is factually wrong, it is morally wrong, and it is an affront to the American system of self-government."  Closing his speech, Gingrich stated, " I am here to ask you to be with me, to ask you to be with me for eight years, to ask you to stand side by side to make sure that we once again reclaim America from the forces of socialism, from the forces of class warfare, from the forces of secularism, from the forces who would let -- try to get us to not teach our children about the history of this great country."  [transcript]
