I was at that event at the Nat. Press Club. It's from last summer. Newt was on fire that day. Excellent speech, as always.

To have heard it in person must have been something special...

That is the guy which both the Republicans and Americans need.

assuming McCain is elected, we'll have four years to give the republican party the moral and ideological enema it so desperately needs. Newt is the only figure I can think of capable.

When he was running for congress his people approached my father to be his chief of staff, he declined, same reason he turned down the judge bit, would not uproot his kids and move. I am more fortunate than most in my selection of parents.

I like Newt

Newt never ceases to amaze me. That was one hell of an answer.

Used to run into Newt now and then when I lived in GA...also Zell Miller. Probably two of the sharpest politicians/men I have ever met....one from left and one from the right.

Zell Miller, of course. He is both fiscally and socially conservative. Just because he is more concerned about what is right for the country than for the Democratic party does not change the facts. While I did not always agree with his position...I respected it. He always manned-up to do what he thought was right...strange for a Democrat...but I guess that can be expected from an old Marine.
