1) OK, so what was Newt doing by going on this particular show? He can pick and choose his venue and interviews, yes? Why would anyone who KNOWS that Gregory is a left wing hack (and I’m certainly agreeing with you - he is), want to do his show unless it is ‘necessary?’ Net result: Newt is showing he’s not ready for prime time.
2) Newt, being a creature of DC, should have recognized the tactic(s) and responded the way DC creatures respond to these types of questions. He didn’t, he fell into the trap. Net result: New is showing he’s not ready for prime time.
Newt isn’t ready for prime time. And to not put too fine a point on it, he’s not remotely the guy the country needs now.
No sound byte sucked out of Dau'd Gregory's nether reaches is necessary.
