He’s actually a great debater, but I don’t trust him in office. I think maybe he could help as a consultant in a research institute like the Hoover Institute or Heritage or something like that.
Newt was my congressman before and while he was Speaker.
The problem is, he has good ideas but he has no courage. He can be rolled by almost anybody (Clinton, Pelosi . . . ) because he doesn't really believe in anything except Himself. Massive ego, no principles is a bad combination.
I agree he needs an advisory role or the VP slot where he can be a wide-ranging attack dog, which is what he does best.
Shame that such a good mind is wasted in a man with no moral framework.
