Newt has allot of baggage. He is the smartest guy in the room, but remember, Newt left congress under scandal, he was sleeping with ladies who worked for him while married.
I think the media would love to channel Newt into first place, then the powers to be will unleash a barrage on Newt like we’ve not seen.
I don’t mind Newt, but this being testy with the media is great for conservatives but it will turn off independents.
You are probably right about that, sadly.
