More information is always preferable. I know nothing about the guy right now.
Okay, forget all of the T.V. shows I mentioned.....didn't you watch the '88 Dem Convention? If not, why not?
Keynote speakers and those who introduce the party candidate for president,of both parties, are the people you need to pay attention to; always has been so and Bill was THE ONE ( which is WHY his terrible performance had to be quickly countered ) to watch that year.
There isn't going to be a "white knight"! So just forget all about that.
Personally, I'd LOVE to see Haley Barbour run, but he says that he is NOT going to do so.
"McCain? Esther Esther it's the big one I'm coming to see you honey, i'm coming to see ya!"
Actually, it's Elizabeth. Esther was the sister Fred definitely didn't want to end up with. ;-)
Sort of like a McCain presidency? :)
Newt's value isn't in actually winning, his value is in shaping the debate.
On that score, no one in the field of twenty can touch his grasp of the issues.
McCain vs Newt in a debate....Tee hee
"What about Rick Perry?"
See #14 on the list.
McCain's ship sailed in 2000. He looks like hell now and has pissed too many of us off.
THE HORROR!
McCain was a much better candidate in 2000, I won't dismiss him, but he just ain't one of us so to speak.
Repeal the 21st Amendment. Senators, though they think they're better than the Exec Branch, have no business near 1600 Penn Ave.
I think even the Dems agree with this.
Ooops. 17th, not 21st.
Damned fingers.
"What about Jeb?"
What about putting a hole in my head, filling it with C4 and running away fast.
Ooops. 17th, not 21st.
Yeah, prohibition has already been repealed......
"Money is the crack cocaine of politics"
Sen McCain on his way to a fundraiser....
Heck, as long as we're trimming back Constitutional amendments, how about repealing the 19th?
And I've always been a Poll Tax fan.
" Romney too Mormon (sad we as a country haven't matured beyond making religion an issue for a candidate.)"
You are soooo right. Wouldn't matter if they were Wiccan, or into Santeria, or were Satanic, or Muslim. Just get over that religion thingy people! And if they believe they will be a God with their own planet (maybe now!), no problemo.
Newt will NOT shape the debate! People here said that about Alan Keyes as well and they too were dead wrong.
I doubt that Newt will run and he shouldn't.
1 vote against Jeb.
Actually yes he will, just based on name recognition alone.
Alan who? Isn't that the guy from the Sean Hannity show?
In this case, almost all the sisters are fugly. =8-P
