(31,706 posts)He's admitted he likes to listen to Rushbo and hate radio and was infamous during the Clinton years for his disgust of "this President". It made him one of Jack Welch's favorites on groomed his way to replace Brokaw.
I think Gnewt purposely was laid back...didn't take the bait to go after anyone and for good reason. He's currently the front-runner...and his prime opponent is doing everything to shoot himself in the foot, leg, arms and head. When that's happening, don't get in the way. He knew that Mittens had to attack and that he'd look foolish in doing so (he was) thus Gnewt was content on letting things slide last night. Now if Gnewt's numbers start to fall...the demogogue will return in full fury...

(521 posts)I did not know that. You sure he doesn't just "enjoy" in an ironic way? Kinda like laughing at idiots? He always goes on The Daily Show and mocks himself on 30 Rock, I always figured he's a pretty awesome dude.
I'm only 25, so I barely knew what was going on during the Clinton years!
