Let’s face it -Newt did our party a favor by, in essence, dropping out of the race before it even started. Before he opened his big mouth, he might have managed to split the Republican ballot, thus sticking us off with another “John McCain” style candidate. Now that he has revealed himself for the liberal that he is, he wouldn’t get the job of dog-catcher on the Republican ballot. Hopefully, the backlash from this entire thing will make him realize his day in the sun is over and we are taking our party back.
You were useful in the 90’s Newt, but its another era. Step back and get out of the way.
Watch out for the talking heads though. Hannity and Rove are spreading oil on the water and saying this was no big deal and that threatening seniors would be the death knell of any GOP candidate. Brit Hume was far more harsh and labeled it a serious misstep.
