And what do you think Newt believed his seat on the couch next to Princess Pelosi was going to lead to?
As he has explained, one of the stupidest things he has done, and long after we all saw it as pretty dumb. I may be smarter in that respect, but in other areas related to running the country, I have a great deal of respect for Mr Newts judgement in that regard and a lot less for my own.
No one is perfect except for the Savior of mankind, least of all our numerous candidates for public office. It is a primary, and it is only right that their weaknesses are brought out. The primary becomes a general election and then things get really serious. Regardless of who the winner of the primary is, I am going to have to support them if I have any particle of hope to rid this country of the present occupier.
Admitting stupidity is hardly an "explanation," nor is it an answer. Are you trying to float the idea this genius never even considered the ramifications of his self-admitted stupid action?
And what's with this "nobody's perfect" drivel? Since when is brainless stupidity excused by "nobody's perfect?"
