Well New Gingrich, the former Speaker of the House & much rumored potential candidate has a lot to say and its not very positive.

On the GOP Field he says the candidates are a “pathetic” bunch “of pygmies”.

On Chris Matthews and the Republican debate he held “You’re watching an utterly irrelevant, shallow television celebrity dominate everybody who claimed they want to lead the most powerful nation in the world. 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.”

On the current format of the debates he said he is unwilling to “shrink to the level of 40-second answers, standing like a trained seal, waiting for someone to throw me a fish”.

On John McCain “The guy who had spent the most on consultants is on the verge, I think, of dropping out of the race, right after he collects his FEC [Federal Elections Commission] money.”

On columnist Robert Novak “Sometimes he’s right and sometimes he’s just venomous….He was once a good reporter, he’s now just a personality.”

On Al Gore “[Not] in touch with reality. … The advertisement for his movie was the most viciously anti-animal advertising that I’ve seen in a long time. They had these little penguins walking on sand. It was terrible.”

On Michael Moore “I find Michael Moore so despicable I can’t imagine looking at a movie by him. It would be like looking at a movie by Goebbels.”

He says the following about running:

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.”
