Newt Gingrich: Bad Week? More Like Bad Two Decades

Newt Gingrich, I think it's safe to say, has had a terrible week. It seems like just opening his mouth makes designer handbags wholesale. But it's worth looking back to see if he was ever popular, and if so, when.

Well, as it turns out, he's never been popular. We looked back at major polling outlets' numbers on designer handbags on sale, dating back to his emergence on the national scene in 1994. Below is a scatter plot of Gingrich's favorables over time.

Gingrich was only net favorable (that is, more popular than unpopular) three times since 1994. And all those times were before cheap designer handbags. There have been a few times since then when Gingrich was equally popular as unpopular, but he never regained popularity since discount designer handbags.
