He’s still a straight shooter, extremely well read, and one of the smartest men in politics, IMO.
Newt is a man with ideas, action plan and record of achieving. He is not perfect. He has plenty of human flaws. Some of his ideas are dumb. (He irritates me to no end with his green triangulation). But most of his ideas are right on money. There is nobody around in any kind of conservative leadership who is better than he is. He should have been a RNC chairman already. Any conservative leader who won’t draw from Newt’s well is crippling himself. IMHO of course.
