He did do that, and it was very disappointing. But he also started the whole “drill here, drill now” campaign, and has come out strongly against cap-and-trade.
Hey, if you look at my posting history, you’ll see that I think the GW scam is the greatest threat to our freedom since the Soviet Union. I was EXTREMELY disappointed when Newt did that.
On the other hand, how many major GOP pols can you think of who haven’t at least paid lip service to AGW? I don’t recall hearing Palin questioning its validity, do you?
The only major officeholder I can think of who has been forceful in calling the whole thing a fraud is Senator Inhofe - who has been downright heroic. But he won’t be running for president.
Can you think of anyone else?

Honestly, I think that the person we are all waiting for has not surfaced yet.
I personally like Palin. I think that the media nad the democrats did such a good job of demonizing Newt, I do not think that he could win in a nationwide election.
