Responding to a bunch of comments on this thread:
No, he is not a credible candidate for president. The GOP would not make that mistake.
No, he would not be a good head of the RNC to replace Michael Steele. He reminds people of the old ethically challenged GOP.
Yes, he will now always be a reminder of sitting on the couch with Ms. Pelosi. We don’t need any of that.
We also don’t need any compromising on “man-made global warming” and Newt’s prescriptions for addressing that and a myriad of issues that he’s gone “progressive” on.
Newt is probably a bit more realistic as a GOP leader than Pat Buccannan. He’s a smart guy, but he let his ego and desire to be loved get in the way of using his considerable brain. And then there’s his personal life...
Excellent summation!
