Dissent Among Republicans?

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich compares the current Bush administration with the Carter administration where "nothing seemed to go right". Apparently to Republicans this is almost heresy but to Newt Gingrich, it needed to be said. Newt seems to be another Republicans in hopes of the presidential ticket this coming year. He says Bush means well, and is sincere but the government isn't functioning as it should be.

What can this mean for the Republicans and their race for the white house? To me it seems to show conflict and internal problems. As with the Democrats on their differences on the War in Iraq, the Republicans and the Bush administration seem to have issues with immigration and how the government is being run. I'm actually looking forward to see which other candidates disagree with Bush and his policies and which candidates agree. So far it seems that only Newt Gingrich has openly attacked the administration and how they are handling the government.
