Gingrich wins SC

Quote from pspr:

I still think Romney will be the eventual nominee.

But, if it were to be Newt I can see some problems with his history as Speaker. Hillary has files of all the antics he did causing himself to be censured (or whatever it was). That means Obama has all that info.

Then there are 3 personality problems I see with Newt.

1) He has a sharp edge and doesn't have any patients with those he believes have wrong him. He is a "get even at any price" type of guy.

2) He comes up with some very good ideas but he also comes up with plenty of hair brained ideas. Like his idea to ignore Supreme Court decisions he doesn't agree with and talk of getting Congress to hamstring the courts. He was even a proponent of Manmade Global Warming for a while.

3) And finally, with the power of the Presidency I think Newt will wield that power with reckless abandon. We probably won't like many of the things that Newt tries to do while President. I think there would be a high risk of eventual impeachment even from a Republican Congress. It would be a battle royal like none other in the history of the country.

Romney might not be as well spoken nor have a history of leaning far right but he is the sane choice among the Republican candidates.

I knew it might happen, I have to agree with you about Newt's failings. He is a loose cannon, no matter how his campaign may try to paint it. And, I don't think he'll be the type to listen to reason from his 'people' - and will surround himself with 'fans fof Newt' if he were ever to make it to the White House.

This will provide some fun for a while, that's for sure.

Hope you don't trade or bet that way. At least you'd be in the lower half who don't pay any income taxes.

Ron Paul? I started listening to his speeches.

Yeah Manson has some baggage but no offshore accounts and standard prison-issue underwear. :D

If you had a $200 million net worth, you would have investments around the world, too.

Prison-issue underwear??? I don't see the correlation.

Ron Paul tries to leave out a lot of his crazy ideas in his speeches. He's not dumb, just crazy.
