These hands can spin a pizzs pe and I can give spin to anything I want!
Ta da!
What? The GOP wants a white man back in the White House.
They need someone with my kind of intelligence....
Newt announces his Presidential Campaign theme song "Born in the USA"
Newt: Who's you're daddy? Yes I am.
Newt's Staffer: Uhh, it doesn't say that on the tele-prompter, sir.
Newt: Who do you think I am? Obama?
My ego is THIIIIIIIS big.
Remember me? Well, I'm back. Let's do this one more time.
Welcome, all of you to my show. If you think America is bad now, just wait. I promise to prove cheating on many wives can be forgiven, while opposing Gay marriage is just. Illegal aliens can be fixed if we just gather them together in events like these and ship them all home. And the best of all, I am not wearing the American flag on my lapel until I can weed out all the Nazi's from our government.
Newt announces that he's got the runs & hopes everything comes out okay in 2012!
What this country needs is a candidate with a proven track record. President Obama can't even successfully shut a government down–I've already shown I have what it takes. Gingrich 2012.
After being interrupted by a reporter: "What the hell man... let your next President speak!"
"My Third Lady will be your First Lady!"
No Newt is good Newt.
Whadda ya mean The Witch I hired to get me elected is out of Eye of Newt AGAIN??:)
Tanned, rested, and ready to run.
"Here I am you lucky voters!"
"Hey, I announced that I was going to make an announcement. What more do you want?!"
"What?" I have nothing to lose here. Going to get a years worth of free food and travel, compliments of people from the party. It doesn't matter that I don't stand a chance, just another part of experiencing politics at it's best!
Nice one, insightful! I'm sure hell also score plenty playing the big man on the road
I am just as loud as "The Donald", but I have better hair!
This is the singularly most significant political event to take place since Caesar decided to cross the Rubicon.
So I'm a womanizer. All the best Presdents were. Lets have some tacos, say a few prayers, and support my bid for intern master... I mean President.
I figured if Donald Trump can run for President, why not me? I used to host my own reality show – it was called Congress.

I welcome you with open arms...so long as you are from the Right
Do you think if I practice moves like this they'll invite me on "Dancing with the Stars?"
Come on, you know I'm the least crazy of the bunch.
What would Gingrich do?
We just had a "Prayer Breakfast" and right now, I need all the prayers I can get!
newt announced his presidential run and said he knows how to do the latest dance craze- the twist.
President?? Don't talk about President. Are you kidding me? President? President? It doesn't matter who will run. Don't talk about President.
Yeah I'm going to Bristol's plastic surgen so he can do for me what he did for her!
Hey Obama, can you blame the tail section of a secret aircraft left in Afghanistan on G.W. Bush or will you just vote present in your own defeat.

What's wrong with some eye of Newt?
newt not announced his presidential run and said he knows how to do the latest dance craze- the twist.
Yes, I'm THIS big of an idiot!
" Come on America, let's put bad hair and bad politics aside and just hug it out !"
Where's that cute little Seignorita with my breakfast burrito?
I picture him saying:
"Hey look, I'm not wearing pants!"
"Folks, can you get any better than this from a GOP candidate?"
Que Sarah Sarah?
Well, if it is not "Old Snowball in Hell!"
Hey, look I took dance lessons with the best of political shoe shufflers. Next question?
white house, i´m coming!!!...i think
"All of me,you can have all of me!"
Welcome to the loser's bracket!
Yeah, this is my year. Primary debates and speed dating have never been more similar.
an' the lies i'm gettn' away with are...THIIIIIS BIIIIIIG....
Is that strawberry cheesecake? More like strawberry pleeeease cake.
"come on, what did you expect?"
Does this suit make me look fat?
