"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."
