I wish Newt Gingrich would tell us exactly how he feels.

In this article at Eaminer.com he gives us his perception of candidates for the Presidency on the Republican side.

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.

While I might believe there is some truth to the former Speakers words, I do not perceive him as the saviour of the Republican party.

What I found most interesting and agree with 100%, is his assessment of these “debates” we are being subjected to.

“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.”

Well said Mr. Gingrich, well said.
