It’s Newt. He has his definite weaknesses, but so did Reagan, who would have been excoriated by some purist whiners here

No Newt for me. Not another McCain and a repeat of 2008

All Newt did was win the House back in 94 , force Clinton to reform welfare, and balance the budget.

Your analogy to McCain is nonsense, just because he sat on a couch next to Pelosi he's some kind of marxist?

Newt isn’t as conservative as I’d like, but he’s vastly more conservative than McCain.

And McCain’s campaign was basically a six-month-long concession speech. Newt will fight hard, and fight to win.

Newt is great at expressing the ideas of conservatism very effectively which will advance the cause even if he continues to stumble in non-conservative ways as he sometimes has.

At his current age he comes across quite genially, so all the media efforts to demonize him are disproved by watching him.

Putting Newt into perspective on the political spectrum in the past 50 years, compared to the GOP nominees he’s less conservative than Goldwater, slightly less or the same as Reagan, and more conservative than the rest (based on how they governed, if elected).
