Gingrich just predicted 400 electoral votes for * on npr
I was listening to the Diane Rehm show, and I'm almost certain he said bush would be over 400 by the end of the night. (He could have said 300, but I'm pretty sure he said 400.)

Did anyone else hear that? 300 is delusional enough, but 400 sets a new bar for sheer stupidity. He should maybe be committed.

17. I certainly laughed :)
and said reflexively "are you fucking stupid?" before realizing I should probably watch the language here in the office ... if that's what he actually said, it might be the single stupidest political prediction I've ever heard.

3. Gangreeenish's...............
mind is not solidly rooted in reality. He lives in a different place than the rest of us. I wouldn't believe him if he told me the sun was going to rise in the east in the morning.

7. Has Newt been dipping into Rush's candy dish?
Delusional. That's all I can say.

But what else would anyone expect from Gingrich? A man who will cheat on his wife will lie on national television.

8. Remember now,
repugs are very good at projection, or accusing your opponent of what you're guilty of. So if he thinks chimpy is gonna get 400ev's that only means that Kerry will get at least that many.

20. He and Pat Buchanan will need padded cells before the night is over.
Both of them are delusional as hell and unable to cope with reality, apparently.

24. Perhaps we should start a pool
on how many repub meltdowns we see on the news shows tonight.

Or perhaps a drinking game (2 shots if they have to haul newt off in a straitjacket ...)

22. Newt- the man who served his wife divorce papers
while she was in the hospital fighting cancer.... The fact that he's even allow on NPR shows the state of moral decay in this country....
