Warns GOP will lose without commitment to ‘very fundamental change’

WASHINGTON - Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Monday there is a very good chance he'll get into the race for the 2008 Republican presidential nomination, but he won't decide until after September.

"I think right now that it is a great possibility," Gingrich said. "I don't want to get into all this stuff. I want to focus on what we have to do to make America successful."

Gingrich said he plans to hold a workshop on solutions facing the country in September, after which he'll make a decision on whether to launch a presidential bid.

He made the comments Monday on ABC's "Good Morning America."

1. Mitt and Newt are my favorites. Even Hillary could beat them. nt

[IDemo]

3. OK, that's it!

Assume the position, buddy!

[av8rdave]

2. Newt is a classic case...

of being a dickhead, and being the only person on the planet who doesn't know it!

[struggle4progress]

4. Oh, run, Newt, run! Please please please run!

[Lasher]

19. Goooo Newt! I'm thinking I might switch to Publican so I can vote for him in the primary.

Boyoboyoboy that would be great! Newt and The Hamper would be a dream team!

[tomhayes]

5. Does anyone think he could actually win??

I mean, he's pretty thoroughly discredited.

The "revolution" was over by 1999 for him.

If he's the candidate it will have to be about illegal immigration, and illegal immigration alone.

What's scary to me is that he'll have 30% of the population vote for him by default if he's the candidate.

6. Please do it, Newt.

Newt Gingrich is the perfect contrast to Barack Obama. He's hateful, hypocritical, ethically unmoored, racist, chauvinist, and petty--and that's just what we have on the record already.

A year and a half of Gingrich's bullshit is guaranteed to put Obama in the White House. Plus, even if he doesn't get the nomination he'll suck up dwindling GOP crime-dollars from other candidates with a better chance.

[RedStateShame]

7. Doesn't this sound like a joke? The Republican candidates look so bad...

...that Newt Gingrich and Dan Quayle said they might run?

If either of those jack-offs got the nomination, I'd guarantee you we could see President Gravel inaugurated.

[leftwingnut]

22. Did you say Dan Qualye???

That's too funny!

Dan Quayle! :rofl:

[TwilightGardener]

8. Is this really news? He's been saying this for months.

[Bob3]

9. sure why not - there's plenty of room in the GOP clown car

sorry presidential race - how about Jeb Bush as well - make it an even dozen (is it a dozen) that'll make it 4 foursomes at the restricted country club they all are members of.

[RL3AO]

10. Why not. Rudy McRommney are not conservative enough for most conservatives

[Kelvin Mace]

11. Say...

isn't it time for you to dump you current wife for one of the aids you are currently fucking?

[TexasLawyer]

14. No, the current wife

doesn't have cancer yet!

And people say GIULIANI has family-values problems. Sheesh!



Gingrich has been married three times. In 1962, Gingrich married his first wife, Jackie Battley, resulting in the birth of two daughters. He left his wife in the spring of 1980; moreover, he finalized the divorce details while she was in the hospital recovering from cancer surgery in the fall of 1980. Gingrich married his second wife, Marianne Ginther, in the fall of 1981. <4> They divorced in 1999 amid rumors Gingrich was having an affair. A year later, he married the alleged subject of his affair, a House aide 23 years his junior <5> named Callista Bisek. <6>

12. Heh, another white meatstick Republican. . .

slather on the BBQ sauce: I'm hungry.

:evilgrin::kick::evilgrin:

13. Great news. Hilarious.

The crew of Republicans this go 'round is the most sterotypical, hilarious gang of morans I have ever seen.

The flip-flopping Mormon.
America's Mayor whose knowledge of foreign affairs frightens wingnuts.
The Crazy Talk Express.
A racist religious nutbag (Brownback)
A wingnut country bumpkin. (Huckabee)
Anti-war, anti-government, Bush critic Libertarian Ron Paul.
Anti-immigration and anti-abortion crazy men (Duncan Hunter and Tom Tancredo).
And now Newt fucking Gingrich - enough said.


BWAHAHAHAHAHAAA

[TankLV]

24. "Fucking" Gringrich - we can take that LITERALLY now!

It the only accurate adjective for him...

[truthisfreedom]

15. Heh. Funny guy, that Gingrich.

What the thugs need is even MORE potential candidates, to further dilute the support for any one of them.

[TexasLawyer]

16. Anti-war

I do have to praise Newt for his stance on the war, though.

<snip>

Polls show that the Iraq War is a big undertow for Republicans. Gingrich said as far back as 2003 that Bush had "gone off a cliff" with the Iraq War. Gingrich believes the United States should get out of Iraq as soon as possible.

"I think we have to turn over policing responsibility for the Iraqis as rapidly as possible," he said. "Pull our troops out as rapidly as possible."

17. ewww. slimed by Newt.

yup, Newtie Boy, go ahead and run- you are sure to kill off the Republican Party that way.

He makes such an easy target...how many divorces/wives? Family Values, ja sure.

[lpbk2713]

18. Good. Let Sleazebag Newt create hate and discontent among the goppers.

He's been on that clown Hannity's Dog n Pony Show so many times recently I think he must be a co-host.

[Forkboy]

20. I can vote in Republican primaries...He'd get my vote.

:evilgrin:

[Lone_Star_Dem]

23. As can I, and I admit to having the same thought cross my mind.

:rofl:

[BigDDem]

21. Please jump in Newt

America loves you; Run Newt Run!!
