We lost our best defender of the Constitution when we lost Newt. I could not believe how the GOP just hung him out and left him to Rats.

Newt should have been faithful to his wife and not subjected himself to the Clintonistas' blackmail. Newt has only himself to blame.

Newt private life is his businees. I couldn't care less. I like wise didn't care about Clinton private life either. As long as Mr Elected, is doing the peoples business well and holding his oath to the Constitution then I don't have a problem.

Newt was outed because he was a real threat, he really wanted to return the USA to a Constitutional republic so Newt had to go and the GOP's hand is just as dirty as the Rats.

Among other things;like allowing himself to believe the News Media actually liked and respected him?, Like believing his own press clippings? Like playing the game mastered by the smarmiest huckster ever in the White House? Like having a tantrum over a calculated baiting insult on A1 ?Like allowing himself to be blindsided by the Government shutdown? Yeah Newt screwed the pooch badly in a lot of ways.You're right ,kristinn.His actions crippled the movement in ways we are feeling now.Had his ego been in check, we'd not be having to fight over the squishy middle as we are now.
