Twice recently I have come across something saying that the Democrats should recruit Newt Gingrich.
For......?
One mention was somewhere on this forum and then I saw it again today in the "Conventional Wisdom" section of Newsweek.
Newt's been off my radar for a while and I'm feeling a bit befuddled.
What's new with Newt?
I've seen his little snarly head pop up here and there on news shows. Last I heard he was "advising" -- who I don't know. I'll look into it.
Hey thanks, FreeDuck. I'm going to check that out. The last time I remember anything about him he was posing with Hillary Clinton at some shin-dig but I can't recall what it was about.
I have a really hard time picturing the democratic party embracing Newt.
If they move any further to the Right they'll get half the Republican Party in with them.
You've got a good point there, goodfielder!
I've got no problem with moderates - I consider myself to be slightly left of moderate - but Newt Gingrich!?
Ah yes! Newtie for Prezzie in '08!
Ummm. Sturgis? Are you serious or are you being a goofball?
Prolly both at the same time. But, that's just a guess. If the dems recruit anyone left of center, it chould be mccain.
McCain is funny. He reminds me so much of my brother.
My brother says he is a "republican" but when you sit down and discuss politics with him he is often to the left of even me.
Or at least very close to me.
I don't think of him as a Republican just as I don't think of McCain as a Republican.
If you didn't know, my brother is a General in the Army -- having spent nearly 30 years in it.
