Former Republican presidential candidate and Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich said on Wednesday, the morning after President Obama’s re-election, that his prediction was “wrong.”
“My personal guess is you’ll see a Romney landslide, 53 percent-plus in the popular vote, 300 electoral votes-plus,” Gingrich said on Monday night on Fox News.
Gingrich added: “Remember that there are two mandates that came out of yesterday. John Boehner and the House Republicans do control the House of Representatives, which is first in the Constitution. And which has a right to say, ‘Gee, we have a mandate, too.’”
