Yes, perhaps her campaign would have been better if she turned the tables. Of course, Newt did and it helped him for a long time, didn’t it? He was good!
Yep Newt understood what to do with DUmb gotcha type question. Also consider giving the WTF facial expressions back at the reporters.
The worst the candidate can do is make it a wash where it does not hurt the candidate, or score good like Newt did. :-)
