The 'Great Debate' - Herm vs. Newt

It's being called a 'modified Lincoln-Douglas' debate. Modified being Lincoln and Douglas actually knew what they were talking about and Herm and Newt don't.

Newt is the 'dinosaur of Republican politics. His 'Andy Warhol' 15 minutes were back in the 90's.(http://www.house.gov/house/Contract/CONTRACT.html)

He was forced to resign his Speakers post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/govt/leadership/stories/gingrich110798.htm)

cheated on one cancer stricken wife (http://lonestarbear.blogspot.com/2008/09/newt-gingrich-who-left-1st-wife.html)

and of late, flip-flopping on issues (http://theweek.com/article/index/213461/newt-gingrichs-libya-flip-flop-what-was-he-thinking)

and making unintelligible remarks (http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Politics/The-Vote/2010/0913/Newt-Gingrich-Did-he-go-too-far-with-comments-about-Obama)

And Herm got in just to sell books and try to get Glenn Beck's old spot on Fox.

The Texas Tea Party Patroits are sponsoring the 'debate' and it will be covering the 'entitlements', Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

So far no national broadcast of it.

A Texas Tea Party event and Presiential Candidate Texas Governor not invited.

Ummmm.

A tea party group is  calling for US Representative Bachmann to quit  :

But they have also endorsed Governor Perry.

And US Representative Steve King (R-Ia) will emcee of the 'great debate'.
