I suppose it's perversely appropriate that Newt should have to apologize for the one thing he ever got even kinda right in order to get back in the good graces of his party. You can't have anyone in a gang of psychopaths show even the slightest compunction or it starts to highlight just how fucked up the rest of 'em are.
I'm getting kinda worried that if Newt continues this run of bad luck and fuck-ups, people will start to feel sorry for him and it'll actually work in his favor.
Mitt looks like a shoo-in, but the wingnuts (aka "the base") will either stay home, or go for one of their darlings running as a third party candidate. Leading to the best right-winger winning in 2012: Obama.
What a useless simp.
