Comments on: NEWT INCHES CLOSER TO THE PRECIPICE http://rightwingnuthouse.com/archives/2007/05/14/newt-inches-closer-to-the-precipace/ Politics served up with a smile... And a stilletto.

None of the current group have a chance in Hades. Fred Thompson included, though he is great in the Hunt for Red October. Now if Bloomberg were to drop a billion or so into the race, maybe, just maybe the Iraq debacle might be overcome. Hell, he could offer every Iraqi in the country a million to chill out for a few years.

Chances slim to none, and slim is slouching toward the town limits. Rudy has sucked all the oxygen from the Newt corner, although Gingrich does have ideas and energy and a claque of adoring fans.

He would contribute nothing but defeat to the Republican Party - and solely in the service of his own ambition. I do not believe that this brilliant but ethically challenged man is qualified for the job. Newt should NOT run.

No thanks. I've got Fred Thompson. Newt is a distraction at best, divisive at worst, and unelectable in any case. I see no other reason for Newt running than self-aggrandizement and stroking his ego, assuming Fred Thompson is in the race at that time. Thompson is a far better spokesperson for Conservative Constitutional Federalism than Newt ever will be. The only think that could hurt a Thompson campaign is Newt firing himself like a kamikaze at the Republican Party, splitting the conservative votes, allowing Giuliani to win. Newt? No thanks.

If things continue as they are, no Republican has a chance to win. It is essentially a two person race between Barack Obama and Hilliary Clinton. In other words, who ever gets the Democratic nomination should coast to victory. Right now Hilliary Clinton and Barack Obama appear to be the front runners for the Democratic Party nomination. As things stand right now, Rudy Giuliana is the only Republican who has any chance at all of winning the Presidential election. Even his chance is a very slim one. Newt can run, if he wants.

Newt….as much as we like him, the previous comment is right…”Red Meat”
