If the GOP candidate isn't a household name by now how do you expect him/her to fare against HillBill when probably 60% of registered Dems are salivating at the thought of Bill Clinton being back in the WH again?
Was Bill Clinton a household name back in '90? No he wasn't.
Newt does have household recognition but unfortunately there are too many squishes in the middle who think that Newt's the big bad wolf.
We need a good conservative governer to come forward soon.
