I can't believe there's no thread on this yet, unless I missed it?

Can we discuss?

ETA: Oh shoot, wrong forum, sorry.

Well, exactly...I mean granted I haven't been on this particular forum in a long while, and then when I came on I expected the place to be SCREAMING primaries...did a double-take. Then realized, d'oh. The Elections forum.

Just...let me finish my first cup of coffee before I post anything else embarrassing. Like, "WTF. The sky is blue???"

Newt will never win the Presidency. Let me count the ways.

He's unelectable, lacks charisma, in the internets and tv age, looks and charisma do matter, whether you like it or not

He has way too much baggage for the Christian Right. He's 55 lbs of crap in a 50lb bag. Cheating on his cancer stricken wife with someone half his age, only to serve her with divorce papers while she is dying in the hospital. Not gong to fly in the bible belt. I would love to be the ad agency that makes that commercial.

He's too old

Agree with most of this. I disagree that he's too old. I don't actually think that's going to be a factor.

Too old? and people think Ron Paul can win? wow, no charisma? I disagree, but even if I didn't has it dawned on you many are saying, we don't want the damn personality candidate anymore: we want serious answers to our questions and concerns. Yes, his baggage will be the end of him, almost before he starts.
