“Newt is the most fearless guy to run for the white house since Reagan. He knows how to fight...”
Reminds me of a story: When people submitted to President Lincoln that General Grant could not possibly be a good soldier, he replied, “I like him; he fights.”
When they charged him with drunkenness, Lincoln jocularly proposed that they ascertain the brand of the whisky he drank and buy up a large amount of the same sort to send to his other generals, so that they might win victories like him!
Botton line: Newt is not afraid to wade in and mix it up, and at least for me, that trumps any of his so-called “baggage”. A junkyard dog will not win any points at a dog show, but he’ll sure save your bacon, and that’s what we need right now.
What he said.
