Fight for control of Republican Party has begun
There are a series of behaviors, a series of attitudes, a series of crony-like activities that are not defensible, and no Republican should try to defend them. The danger for Republicans is to pretend this isn't fundamental or to pretend that they can get by passively without undertaking real reform.

1. You know it's bad
When they're admitting it rather than ignoring it. I'm guessing he realizes how fucked they are, and that they can't ignore it anymore. He is probably trying for another publicity stunt, much like his "Contract with America"

2. You know things have gotten to a sorry state when Newt
is sounding reasonable. He was the most hated man in America during Big Dawg's last term. If Newt is their good guy, we all better find a country to go to.

that he's going to run for president-allowing as how it's a good thing for people to ask any question (multiple marriages} of their future leader... (chuckle)
What a hypocritical ass!
Cspan's lurch to the right is so sickeningly transparent.
