Interesting theory, and it makes sense. Many manic-depressives are erratic overachievers. He may have a less florid form of the disorder called bipolar 2 or something like that. Those folks are much higher-functioning when the illness is uncontrolled than full-blown bipolars are.“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

It's a shame too because I think as far as intelligence goes in the current Republican party, he is the LA Ute of candidates.Originally posted by LA Ute View PostInteresting theory, and it makes sense.

He's just too negatively wired to be Commander in Chief IMO.

Don't forget that sexual promiscuity and spending sprees (Tiffany's?) are also features of manic episodes.Originally posted by LA Ute View PostInteresting theory, and it makes sense.

Wow, those guys played The Gingrich like a fiddle.
Facing Second Loss to Gingrich, Romney Went on WarpathGive 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

I really think he was doing pretty well in his "wise man" role he seemed to have taken on. By running for president he's pretty much torched whatever repairs he had made to his reputation and historical legacy.Originally posted by Blueintheface View PostIt's a shame too because I think as far as intelligence goes in the current Republican party, he is the LA Ute of candidates.

I sense it and cherish it.Originally posted by All-American View PostSo my silent let unerring emotional support means nothing to you? How hurtful.
For anyone who never saw or missed this spectacular moment in Newt history - John Lithgow reading the ridiculous press release of May on Colbert. Priceless.

Very good article.
This was funny.On Monday, he told his supporters: “We just got word of a brand new poll from about an hour ago that says we have a tie!” The crowd erupted in a chant of “Newt! Newt! Newt!”
When reporters asked for details, Gingrich’s spokesman distributed a “Dixie Strategies” poll — conducted early last week and published on Friday.
He said there shouldn’t be “any doubt” that he will remain in the race after Florida. “The establishment in both parties is terrified,” he boasted.
Well, at least the Republicans are.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.
Dig your own grave, and save!

And this of Mitt: http://www.becketfund.org/the-canter...edal-dinner-2/Originally posted by Surfah View PostNewt is losing it. Now he's calling Romney anti-religion like he does Obama.
He shares the Canterbury Medal for religious freedom with Elie Wiesel and a few others.
