I think he's one of the most serious players hoping to face-off against Obama in 2012. I think his opening gambit was dull, clumsy and hardly inspiring.

I know nothing about his politics. but isn't that the guy who served the divorce papers to his wife while she was in the hospital battling cancer?

Next stop, that senator from the "Dukes of Hazzard"? Ben Jones was the name?

But he is now washed clean via his baptism in the Catholic Church, right? Don't people love a good story of redemption?

He's messing with some unknown forces if he did this strictly as a political tactic.

Alledged??? smile smile smile Although, I could care less. After all, a life devoted to public service (or in Bill's case, servicING smile ), should have SOME kind of reward smile. Why can't we just think of him as just a "lusty lad", you know, like those Kennedy boys smile .

All kidding aside, NEWT, as PRESIDENT? There's a better chance that Elvis is still alive. I'm guessing that every Democrat in the country is praying that ol' Newt gets the GOP nod. It'll be the biggest landslide in presidential election history.
