Washington DC, Jan 2 (THAINDIAN NEWS) It seems that Newt Gingrich loves to be in the spotlight. And this time he has managed to stir up a hornet’s nest by alleging that the current President Barack Obama managed to win his seat by cheating in the elections.

In an interview with Kelly Wright, who is the Fox News anchor, Newt alleged that the Obama team won the elections because they were “able to win by cheating”.

He also said that it is absolutely wrong on the part of the government to say no to the Carolina voter identification law. Newt added that, “I think every American has a right to demand that our elections be honest and we have some way of knowing who is actually voting. That we don’t have dead people voting. We don’t have people voting illegally. We don’t have people voting who may not have the correct registration and I think it is again an example of the Obama Administration’s reliance on being able to win by cheating that they are somehow frightened of having an honest election and this is the kind lawsuit I would drop the very first day if I became president.”

He also threw some mud at Mitt Romney and the amount of money that was being spend by Mitt’s team in a bid to win the elections. Newt said that Mitt would “would buy the election if he could.”
