IF Newt were to go head to head with Obama, the annointed one would be exposed as an intellectual fraud on the subjects that matter most. I don't think we have seen someone in maybe a decade who has such a grasp on policy matters as Newt does. Unfortunately, we will never get that face-off. As one of the newsies said the other night, it seems that Newt is auditioning for a high level job in the new administration if Mitt wins. (Someone mentioned he was auditioning for the VP, but if Mitt were to chose him, that would probably be a BIG mistake as the ticket would be the typical Repub ticket of old, rich white guys)
