Do you think House Speaker Newt Gingrich should run for president?

"I don't really think he should be president. He has too much of a mouth. I don't think a man of wisdom would use his tongue as loosely. I think we need strong moral leaders capable of leading in any situation. Someone with a loose tongue would have to have someone getting them out of trouble all the time."

"Newt should not, not, not, not run for president. I think he'll probably be a good speaker, but his politics belong in the house. He's too headstrong, too much of a loose cannon to be president."

"I think he should run, but I wouldn't vote for him. Why? Honestly just to distract from what he's doing. So he can put his energy somewhere else. Personally, I think he's a lot of hot air."

"I would rather he didn't. I'm not republican, but in the interest of the party, they have a good candidate in Bob Dole. Newt is too much like Dole and he would split the votes. I like Bob Dole better than Newtie. He's more middle of the road."

"Yes. He should run. I would never vote for him if my life depended on it. He's welcome to run though. He's an important player in the current political scene. But if he represents the future of the country,I'm getting a passport and packing my bags."
