Gingrich wants to be perceived as like "Reagan", right?

So, he's hoping that Iran will go psycho and drive up the oil prices, so that Newt (Reagan) can make the "liberally-biased media" portray Obama (Carter) as weak, and the "Nuke 'em all" candidate Newt (Reagan) will "scare" Iran into backing down, if he becomes Pres?

(Then again, George H.W. Bush probably still has his ties to the CIA ...)
