Reagan was a big admirer of FDR in his youth. People do change opinions over 30years.Such was Gingrichs faith in President Reagan that in 1985, he called Reagans meeting with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev the most dangerous summit for the West since Adolf Hitler met with Neville Chamberlain in 1938 in Munich.
Measured against the scale and momentum of the Soviet empires challenge, the Reagan administration has failed, is failing, and without a dramatic change in strategy will continue to fail. . . . President Reagan is clearly failing.
Thus Gingrich concluded as he surveyed five years of Reagan in power that we have been losing the struggle with the Soviet empire. Reagan did not know what he was doing, and it is precisely at the vision and strategy levels that the Soviet empire today is superior to the free world.
