I watched a little of the Republican debate and I hate to admit it, but Rush Limbaugh is right when he says that Gingrich could give Obama more of a race than Romney.
Romney leaves everybody flat. Newt is full of zingers and is always spoiling for a fight. Newt could win the moderates who say things like, “I don’t agree with him on much, but the guy has moxie.” or “I just like him.”
The same voters who turned out for Bush, knowing that he was an idiot, are the same voters who will turn out for Newt knowing that he is crazy. Meanwhile, Democrats who are tired of the Democrats muddied, and qualified Republican sounding elevator pitch could very well stay home.
I’d make the Obama / Gingrich race a coin flip at this point.
