I like Newt but he only seems to do well when he is not a front runner. I can’t really explain it but he does better when he is almost a spectator. When the fire is aimed at him, he doesn’t seem to be able to “rise above it” the way he did last night. If he can keep this Newt going even when he is the target, he has my vote. Time will tell...
You may have a good point. Santorum, as well, to me had his worst debate performance last night. Maybe the hubris gets in their way. I thought Newt did great last night..but I really wish he’d ditch that purple tie.
