Newt is excellent on solutions from energy to reforming civil service and making their pay compatible with the private sector, to education, the borders, the middle east and having Jeruselem as the capitol of Israel and dealing with Iran, education, etc. There is no contest between the other candidates and Newt when it comes to solving or turning around the problems we deal with..check out Newt.org
I don't disagree with you.
But there are too many people on this board willing to chose a candidate based solely on his debate performance -- and projecting that to a debate match-up with Obama (which smply won't happen if Newt is the candidate).
