It seems just barely conceivable that the Newtser could get the nomination, buy the odds are against it. He didn't do well in the debate last night. There is perhaps a 1 in 5 chance he will win in FL. And he almost has to win here in order to get the nomination.
True, he is pussy whipped. True, he is a conniver. He is smarter than Juniorbush, but he also seems to have a gene that makes people hate his guts. He is generally a smartass and thinks he is the only genius in any room he occupies.
He would not be at all likely to beat Obama.
