Newt Gingrich

If he runs for President, would you support him?

Yes, but I do not think he could get elected POTUS these days.

He's extremely intelligent. Was the first I heard to propse a 21st Century Transformation of State Dept.

He's just way to devisive to get elected as #1 on the ticket...perhaps too devisive for even #2.

Was thinking about this last night. I think Newt serves the Repubs best by going far right to make other Repubs look more moderate....

ATLANTA (Reuters) - Former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich said on Wednesday he would wait until September before deciding whether to run for the Republican party's presidential nomination and described that race as "wide open."

Would work but the election would need to be limited to only those who actually have gray matter in their skulls.
