“Newt might find his way back to frontrunner status now”
Newt could have brought down the house if he had used another word to best describe himself. Cheerful? are you kidding?
He should have said “The TERMINATOR !”
It would have got everyone our of their seats. We need someone to terminate everything Obama has done the past 3 years.
He was in the right ballpark, but to be honest I would have used the word “optimistic.” He distinguished himself from the negativity going on between the other candidates, but “optimistic” would have invoked Reagan and had a neat double meaning, representing his hopes for his campaign and his hopes for the country.
I loved the "cheerful" comment because it was so unexpected -- the others were trying to be so serious. But you're right, the terminator or something similar would have been great. I guess he can't think of everything. I still think Newt was at the top of his game last night.
