Yes, because it will be one hell of a fight to overcome the GOP establishment. I have said for many years that we first must kill the elephant and grow us a new, conservative one before we can truly slay the donkey.
I think Newt has got his safari suit on, his elephant gun loaded, and he is out hunting old, diseased elephants who are ruining the terrain. He is making way for new, healthy elephants. The donkeys soon will be cowering in the corner as they will soon be trampled.
DITTO! I like it.
