Newt has a few problems, but one thing is sure, he is right on MOST of the issues. He is also highly intellectual about the process, smart as heck, plugged in to the media, and able to make long term plans. He also can articulate very effectively. Neither Bush nor McLame was able to speak without sounding like a stumbling mess.

I, for one, would love to see him become more of a mover and shaker than he already is.

We need to be rid of RINOS like Romney and we need to be rid of them QUICK before we end up stuck with idiots like that. We need someone that understands conservatism and is willing to advocate for it, not someone like Romney who’ll flip and flop with every wind and will only mealy-mouth conservative principles as long as it benefits him.

I say we get Newt moving. Or, if not Newt, then someone like Mark Sanford. But GOD help us shed Romney and Huckabee and Giuliani.

Oh, and I forgot to say, I don’t see him as being the party presidential nominee. He is better in planning stages.

A few problems? Now that’s and understatement! Newt wimped out and supported the bailout. That alone disqualifies him. Some of us also remember that he also supported the prescription drugs boondogle, probably the most significant expansion of the welfare state since LBJ.
