How can the neocons urge Newt to become the latest musical chairs loser, . . . didn’t Sarah Palin say she voted for him?  One public opinion poll tells us that 43% of Americans believe it is time for another candidate to get into the race.  Hmmmm!  Who might that be?  Where could an alternative to the three establishment sock-puppets be found at this late date?  Hmmmm!  Maybe we will have to go back to the Royal Family – the Bushes – for such a selection.  Who might that be?  Who would be available that we haven’t yet heard from?  Hmmmmm!  Brother Jeb?  (Just turn to the final page of the script to see if this is where we’re headed!)
