WASHINGTON (Map, News) - Dismissing the GOP presidential field as a "pathetic" bunch of "pygmies," Newt Gingrich hinted Monday he might step in to beat Democrats Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama.

"If, in mid-October, it's quite clear that one or more of the current candidates is strong enough to be a serious alternative to a Clinton-Obama ticket, you don't need me to run," the former House Speaker said at a breakfast sponsored by the American Spectator. "If it becomes patently obvious, as the morning paper points out, that the Democrats have raised a hundred million more than the Republicans, and at some point people decide we are going to get Hillary unless there's a radical change, then there's space for a candidate," he added. "So you'll know by mid-October one of those two futures is real."

Asked by the Examiner if he was prepared to commit to a run, Gingrich said, "I'm perfectly happy to do what I do," he said. "Whether that leads to the presidency is the country's problem, not mine."

Gingrich mocked Republican presidential candidates for subjecting themselves to a May debate hosted by Chris Matthews of MSNBC's "Hardball."

"You're watching an utterly irrelevant, shallow television celebrity dominate everybody who claimed they want to lead the most powerful nation in the world," he said.

Gingrich ridiculed "the idea of 10 or 11 people standing passively at microphones," and said he refused to "shrink to the level of 40-second answers, standing like a trained seal, waiting for someone to throw me a fish."

He added: "These are not debates, these are auditions. By definition, the psychology of an audition reduces the person auditioning and raises the status, for example, of Chris Matthews."

Pressed by The Examiner about whether his political baggage renders him unelectable, Gingrich compared himself to a famous French statesman. "This is like going to De Gaulle when he was at Colombey-les-Deux-Eglises during the Fourth Republic and saying, 'Don't you want to rush in and join the pygmies?'" he said.

"I have no interest in the current political process. I have no interest in trying to figure out how I can go out and raise money under John McCain's insane censorship rules so I can show up to do seven minutes and twenty seconds at some debate." Still, he said he might enter the race before the deadlines to "start filing petitions.

I have until now been in Newt's corner but his scorn for McClain as a "pygmie" forever relegates him to the dust bin in my estimation. John may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer but compared to the opposition but he is head and shoulders above the rest. Q.E.D. Take that professor!

Rick Tyler, Press Secretary for Newt Gingrich said:
Sammon's story is yet another example of how our political process is broken. Gingrich when asked by Bill about running made a simple historical analogy. He likened his interest in joining the race in its current form to Charles de Gualle�s interest in joining the Fourth Republic, a political and governing system which he disdained. The comparison is fitting. To solve France�s innumerable problems required dramatic reforms that could not be realized from within the then failing political system. America has seemingly intractable problems. What is needed at the core of the presidential race are bold solutions and bold leadership that transcend partisan political posturing. It was clear to anyone in the room that Gingrich was referring to de Gualle and the analogy of a broken political system and not to any of the candidates running for President. Sammon ignored the important analogy, and choose instead to focus on the banality of horserace politics.

In regards to Examiner Reader at 12:04 MST who said the other candiates should be forced to debate Newt; That is the American way, (just the US part of America, not Canada or Mexico, the other part of America)to force people to do things. I wouldn't waste my time debating Newt. He won't even go see "Sicko" (the movie) so how can he debate anyone. He only knows about things he wants to know about.!!!!!!! I feel sorry for anyone who gets colon cancer because they couldn't afford a colonoscopy because Newt didn't push universal health care through when he was speaker of the house. Thank-you Rush Limbaugh, (illegal drug purchaser)for brain washing the American lemming (public) into thinking we don't need Universal Health care because it doesn't cover heart transplants. Those of you with polyps better pray for a miracle.

Bush should resign! Give us BACK the Republican Party. Now! The Republican Party flourished under Reagan because he talked �The People�s Language.� Blue collar and White collar Americans supported him because he took the complex and made it simple. The general (non-elitist) public enjoyed more freedom and opportunity under Reagan than ever before. He defeated Dimmie (short for Dimwit) Carter with the term �Misery Index.� He asked, �are we better off under Carter, or worse off?� Newt (I can support him), Ron Paul (I�d rather have him) or Governor Mike Huckabee (I�d love to see him as nominee) will have to run AGAINST Bush. Forget the party. Bush fails now, because he talks Globalist/Elitist language. If Bush prevails, the Republican party is doomed. Bush should gracefully resign "for personal reasons," (do it for the good of the country) and remove the stigma from the party. Give the new challengers a sporting of a chance, if it any longer exists.

Newt admittedly has character problems. Many will refuse to vote for him simply because of that. This narrow minded thinking may well cost us the next term. These voters should remember, we are electing a President, not a Pastor. He is natural man and not a Messiah! Newt is undoubtedly the most innovative thinker in modern political times! His public reputation will probably prevent him from developing a sufficiently wide spread popular support. However, he should not be written off yet. His brilliance has energized the Republican Party many previous times, and it will surely happen again.

Excellent point examiner reader.

A few farmsand a couple of factories and some decent housing would have made all of the difference. Did Newt ever propose anything like this when he was speaker of the house?
