An attendee at the Heritage Foundation / Republican Study Committeee retreat in Baltimore sends along these notes:
Last night, ex-Speaker Newt Gingrich told RSC members they had two choices. to be content in the minority or to work every minute of day to earn it back. Gingrich saaid he was a hated member of the minority "for good reason."
Ex-Rep. Tom DeLay gave an "intriguing" presentation about degree to which liberal organizations like Moveon.org can control elections and showed a chart about how many different groups (hundreds) are associated.
Both Delay and Gingrich said that the RSC must seek to be the mouthpiece and the conscience of the Republican caucus, because no one else will.
Up next: Ex-Gov. Mitt Romney.
