He makes it clear where he comes out. Interesting analysis all the same. http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/mitt-vs-newt/2011/12/01/gIQAtSfOIO_story.html |

Looks more and more like the Republicans are trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in 2012. |

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool. I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss! - Cecil Lewis | |

George Will is not a Newt fan. To an extent that I found surprising. |

Yeah, I hadn't noticed that. By the way, I meant to post Will's full column, not just the excerpt from NRO. Here it is: http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/romney-and-gingrich-from-bad-to-worse/2011/12/02/gIQArsM3LO_story.html |

Pretty much on the money. I'm not a big Newt fan, for POTUS. However I do admire him and would like him in the administration if the Rebub's win. |

Ah, couldn't wait. I think both Krauthammer and Will are pretty on the money. I have serious doubts that Gingrich can win the general, but if Mitt can somehow get the nomination I think he'll pick up a lot of independents that are now disenchanted with Obama. What's up with Huntsman, then? Does he have no personality? Will he get a shot if Newt quickly flames out? |
