A large number of idiot children here seem to forget that without Newt there would have been no Congress to lose.Can't agree more. Newt was the driving force, intellect, honed political skills that moved the conservative movement into Congress in 1994.
Newt is so far from perfect, as ALL politicians are. I'm speaking from a perspective of being a religious social conservative. We don't elect Popes or pastors to political positions, we elect politicians, warts and all. Newt is heads and shoulders above any politicians currently trying to influence the conservative movement
A lot of these children, as you say, will be astonished to figure out Newt will be the one who drives the barbarians out of the gate if we can mange to still do it.

Yeah, the Newt haters came out in force on this one. I watched him this morning and I thought he was brilliant. He said what no one else has been willing to say.
I see a bunch of people talking about Tom Coburn, but I must have missed his courageous call for the President to destroy North Korea's rocket.
Newt is not my favorite pol, but he is one of the best minds in the nation on foreign policy and has a better grasp of what's going on than most of those much vaunted Conservatives on Capitol Hill.
Next administration; Newt as Secretary of Defense and Bolton as Secretary of State.
