Newt would reduce the kenyan to less of a nothing than he already is.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, the buck stops here. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."

~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006

I want a big eviscerate and hear the ululations of their girly-men

The risk for Gingrich is that primary voters may eventually recognize what he's up to. After all, as a purely practical matter, the point of picking a Republican nominee isn't to find the candidate who can beat Obama in a debate but to pick the nominee who can beat Obama in an election (oh, and be a good president too, a worthy subject for another day).

Makes sense.

If Newt is the nominee there will be no debates. Obama will find some way not to participate.

I can see how. He’s been expecting to run against someone to the right of him. I still don’t think the Gingrich/Chafee ticket could beat him.

Can you imagine what the debates would be like? If Gingrich is the nominee, he would treat Obama like a public works employee feeding tree limbs into a high speed wood chipper. It would not be pretty for Ø. Newt is a great debater. He wouldn’t hold anything back. He would tear the Kenyan usurper to shreads. Definitely a PPV event.

Nice to think so but Newt melted like a sack of butter when Clinton challenged him with a Gov't shut-down.

When he's under real pressure I'm afraid he won't be the lion everyone is hoping for.

Can you imagine a 2 hour debate with Both candidates bemoaning the evils of, "rightwing social engineering?"

The only issue they disagree on is that Gingrich think Pelosi is a genius and Obama thinks she is a moron.

And when he was challenged for his leadership position in the House, he quit.

Another Bob Dole look a like. Another PC opponent the MSM and the Dems have vetted completely. They all want Newt. Obama will win re-election in a walk.

If they get to debate, it’ll be like bringing a gun to a pie fight.

I remember that time. Everyone was saying "Why don't the Republicans fight back?". They were fighting back, the MSM just refused to let them get their message to the public. I remember watching Newt make a speech on CSPAN, and thinking, if only the American people would see this, we would win!

The times have changed now. We have a small, but growing new media that is not part of the Progressive MSM. We can get our message out if we have a little time to do it. The MSM has lost much of what credibility it had getting President Obama elected, and most of the electorate knows it.
