Is Anyone Still Actually Buying This Shit?

Okay, so now apparently since the GOP's latest flavor of the week is threatening to self destruct in a big ol' cloud of office ass-grabbery and cheap pizza farts, their next big Golden Boy may be (and here's a fresh, invigorating new name)... Newt Gingrich? What th'?!

I'm sorry, but having done a bit of rubber-necking at these GOP presidential primary debates and watching each one of 'em ranging further and further from unintentional satire to the realm of flat-out slapstick, I've just gotta ask... does anybody here but me feel like they could get far more substantial and informative political insight from watching a late-night marathon of old "Hello Larry" reruns?
