Newt's interview with Wallace just ended in my time zone. I am convinced that Gingrich sees the Pub's situation at present better than anyone I have yet to hear. His appreciation of the problems facing those working for a return to majority status in the Congress are indicative of a brilliant observer and proof that his leadership back into majority status in '94 was no fluke. I'm looking at him in an increasingly better light for '08.

The msm/DBM would go all out to destroy candidate Newt,IMHO.

They would work against him harder than anyone, not that he could win anyway.

We think in terms of the smartest guy will win,trouble is that doesn't always happen.

Newt is the worst nightmare of the msm/DBM. They realize he knows every trick they are trying and is always one step ahead of them. Besides he is a common sense conservative--that is like a silver bullet/wooden cross to the msm--they would die a horrible death dealing with him.

A candidate like that could ruin their day, they would do anything to prevent him from getting elected.

Too many skeltons I am afraid and the religious right will never go for a twice divorced three times married man.

I love Newt and there is no question that he's the most articulate and intellectual conservative politician living today. I don't give a damn about his divorces and look forward to watching him crush opponents in debates. The left and the media couldn't destroy the great communicator, Ronald Reagan, and I predict they'll not be able to destroy Newt either.
