Bingo. Newt's problem is that he's not nearly as smart as he thinks he is...
That's not to say he's not a very smart guy, rather, he actually
suffers from a sharp intellect and quick wit...he doesn't think a lot of his ideas out first, he just blurts them out.
People are looking for policy that makes sense, not an edgy partisan attack artificially bolstered by a few historical factoids.
For the brightest guy out there he seems to be spending a lot of time backtracking and clarifying his positions.
