Re: Gingrich self-immolates.
This is a little scary. The premise now seems to be that if you're not running like an obsessed maniac in the presidential campaign, full time, a year and a half before the election, then you're not "serious." You don't have enough "fire in the belly."
It may very well be true that Newt doesn't have enough "fire," but I'm not sure I like where the bar for that has now been set. If this goes on, we stand a good chance of the process selecting for the wrong kind of people.
