No, he comes off as another college professor lecturing us - just like Obama. I'm not comparing the policy positions of the two. Just their demeanor.

I dearly wish I had more professors like Newt in my lifetime. Hearing him tell stories from American history in his various speeches has been absolutely riveting and electrifying. I'm planning to see if there are audio books or other speeches out there where I can get some really in-depth history lessons as told by him. He truly knows how to captivate, entertain and educate an audience like few other individuals I've seen.

He's an excellent college professor. I had taped his lecture series at one time - don't know what happened to the tapes (my son may have taped over them). If he wants to be a college professor, I have no problem with that. I don't need my President to lecture me on a daily basis. That's all I'm saying.

I have nothing personal against Newt and will vote for him if he's the most viable conservative alternative to Romney when the WI primary is held in April.
