It all boils down to this: I want to know that the people leading me are better people than I am.<\/p>\n
I’ve never claimed to be a good person that I am aware of. I am far too judgemental, far too opinionated, and far too passionate to really qualify. I’ve always like GWB, not because I thought he always made the right decision, lord knows I disagree with roughly half of what he has done. But he always struck me as a decent man deep down inside.

\nI used to listen to Limbaugh every day. Then he pulled the Oxycontin bit and I stopped. Ditto for O’Reilly with the whole sexual harrassment issue who I believe at one point blamed it on his hot-tempered Irish side. It’s not that I neccessarily fault them for being imperfect in their personal lives, I just can’t look up to them the same way when they do such things.<\/p>\n
Which is why I have always LOATHED Newt Gingrich. I watched that silly-ass video of him holding hands on a park bench with Nancy Pelosi and I was hard pressed to decide who I disliked more. Gingrich has cheated on at least 2 of his 3 wives, and that’s enough to rule him out in my book. Look, I am not so stupid that I don’t realize that tons of people cheat. But if they are willing to cheat on those they publically stated they would love and hold until death do them part, what makes you think they won’t cheat on you?<\/p>\n
Anyway, Ed Morrissey over at Hotair <\/a>is talking about what a great RNC chair Newt would make. I still don’t get the love affair with Newt. Someone remind me what the Contract With America got us, except a shit load of GOP Congressmen who would let us down by running up the federal budget.<\/p>\n Wondering what y’all think.<\/p>\n PS: Looks like Malkin agrees with me for different reasons.<\/a><\/p>\n OK, so who do I want in there?
