Newt may be a mental giant, but he will never be the Republican candidate for POTUS. He’s trying hard, though.
I don’t think so either
What’s wrong with Newt? Who is the alternative?
I realize this is the received wisdom, based upon Republican gains in the Clinton era credited to Gingrich.
I seriously question the veracity of this, given the gross overreach of the administration and the revulsion of the voting public at the time, as well as the sheer idiocy displayed by Gingrich both politically and in his personal life since then.
He's a relic, of questionable provenance. That I don't question.
