I’m not impressed with any of these people. But will say, Newt is slickest, and probably smartest person on the stage. Never thought I’d vote for someone named after a lizard.

Oh, Merry Christmas!

LOL! Newt is a nickname. His name is actually Newton.

A newt is an amphibian, a salamander. For part of its life cycle it is green and lives in the water, for the other part it is red (called an eft) and lives on land. Maybe there's some symbolism there.

“Never thought I’d vote for someone named after a lizard.”

Technically an amphibian, if that helps. Nevertheless, an amphibian has more authenticity than a hologram though, so yeah. Newt in a heartbeat over Romney.

I believe that Newts amphibians and not lizards.

Either way, I wont vote for a lizard or a newt or a Newt Gingrich.
