"I'm crazy about Newt," Barbour told reporters after a breakfast at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce after he was asked about Gingrich's likely presidential announcement. "We've been friends for a very long time."

Just on a purely superficial level, Gingrich looks terrible these days. He looks old, pasty, fat, and unkempt. Literally disheveled when I've seen him. Not the least bit like a man running for president.

That picture is exactly why I will never support Newt in anything, and everytime Hannity praises him, I want to tear my hair out

Ahhh, Haley...just hush up.

I like ya a lot, but you remind me of an ex-sister-in-law who ran her mouth so much she talked herself into a divorce.

Newt, Barbour and Mitt need to get lost plus Jeb.

I mean Newt makes Huckabee look good.

If Newt is the smart ideas man that everyone says he is, he should immediately come to the conclusion that no one wants what he is selling. I agree with you He looks terrible and his dodge on his personal issues by saying he talked already about them 10 years ago is akin to Romney's spin on Romneycare.

Sorry but Barbour is just “crazy”. Can’t the Republicans run someone who at least has a chance to win? Do we really want someone who believes in Gore’s climate change BS. Please let’s run someone who could kick Obama’s butt in a debate and at the polls.
