I know Newt is the smartest person in the entire universe, but I don't think he's going to get to the time travel issue until he's conquered global warming. Check the date the video was uploaded to youtube. It was in early November, just before Newt started to climb in the polls and both candidates were trying to get recognition. Santorum issued his challenge for a L-D with Newt on Greta's show in early December (12/3, IIRC.)
Santorum; Big government spender:

I don’t see the date you’re talking about. Josh Painter says it was Dec 10.
Wait a minute, yes I see it. You’re right, Nov 11.
What a humane event, letting them sit down instead of standing for 2 hrs.
It’s still a really good view of their differences. I watched the whole thing. Another debate between them isn’t really necessary.
Time travel, cute! LOL
My guess is Newt didn’t see Santorum as a threat and didn’t need to spend time and money that needed to be spent on Romney. Specially since they did meet one on one. I realize you don’t like that but it is as it is.
Sorry I didn’t get back to you sooner but I have had a very busy last view days.
