That's right Jane!
One thing I'm noticing is that if Newt isn't aggressively speaking people take it as he's, well, melting down. Not at all. He is reasoned and he handles the media as well as any candidate I have seen in the past two or three decades. I'm sure that comes from being relentlessly attacked the entire time he was Speaker of the House.
Were Mitt to have gotten the exact same questions as Newt got tonight he would be an ash heap.
Lastly, I like that Newt hit on the Moronism tonight. First time I've heard him mention that. Good, and I wish he would start referring to him as Bishop Mitt Romney every time he mentions his name.

They said weeks back that was part of what they were going to do—try and paint Gingrich as emotionally/mentally unstable.
Heck a Romney supporter was poking at that here today.
I think it a silly move because Romney doesn’t come across as the most stable himself. He also seems almost stiff and afraid of people. He seems to draw back. Very uncomfortable. He can’t wait for this campaigning and being around the people to be over. He just wants to be president.
There’s the funny word video dealy (the one like the Perry pretzels for the jet engines deal) of Mitt and at one point he slightly wraps his arms around himself and rubs, he wasn’t dressed any more lightly than the others and no others acted cold. No, Romney has some mental stuff—watch him.
Perry was the most at ease around people, shaking hands and just talking. Also, recall when Mitt put his hands on Perry? They are doing this to Newt on purpose, trying to make him doubt himself. When it is Mitt that is a mental defect.
Mitt has no business running this country, none.
