I bet he pulls off a do-se-do* with Romney or Newt, before they know what happened, and the MSM will be picking the tune.

I will have to dig to find the article, but it is on tape, and undeniable.... not vague at all, but the smoking gun......

he will probably burn mcromney, but newt has been down this road before... he will be a little tougher nut to crack

There is one potentially serious drawback there: the congressional aides.
(I’m not sure if they stay in place until specifically replaced or not, but let’s assume that they do.)
If that’s the case then the congressional aides will be training the new reps, and I don’t trust the bureaucratic types: the only power they have is to make one jump through hoops, so to increase their power they a) increase the number of hoops, and b) lie about (invent or omit) them.
