Not going to happen unless Newt wants to debate himself or Ron Paul.
Anybody that's honest, whether they support Newt or not, will freely admit he's the best debater in the game.
Debates are useful for winnowing the field. Much less so than when people are familiar with the candidates. And totally useless when the opponents avoid them.
The potential backlash for ducking a debate is far less than the backlash for getting creamed in one.
For those who salivate at the prospect of a Gingrich-Obama debate, be assured that the Kenyan's handlers will keep them to a minimum or even avoid them altogether. Gingrich could beat Obama in debates even if Obama's people pick venues, pack the audience with syncopates, pick moderators which are even worse than syncopates, and give him the questions in advance. Do you think Obama's handlers don't know this?
