  Considering Newt's political relevance is pretty much on its deathbed, I assume he'll be serving it divorce papers.

  One highlight of this interview, and it's not in the video in teh Jezebel article... Newt informs Kelly that Republicans are leading democrats in early voting in Pennsylvania (and Florida).
  
  There is no early voting in Pennsylvania.

  I love that the Republicans say they're winning in FL based on the number of Republicans who have votes vs. number of Democrats. While it may be true with the Congressional elections, I wonder how many are voting party allegiance in the Presidential election?

  You know what's messed up about that clip?
  
  Calling someone Mr. Speaker who hasn't been the Speaker of the House for 20 years. I mean **** is that anyway?

  They still call Jimmy Carter "Mr. President." Retired military stays with the last rank served. I've heard retired sheriffs and police chiefs referred to as such. Even heard a former director of a state agency called "Director."

  It's like when sports announcers or talking heads refer to former coaches as "Coach". That's why the terrorists are winning.

  Indeed. It's a **** job title, not an honorific. I get it with the ex-presidents, but not some **** football coach or Congressman.
