Eye of Newt, and Toe of Frog

Just a few days after teasing anxious voters with the idea that he'd take a run at president, a spokesman confirmed that Newt Gingrich isn't running after all. Gingrich had stated that if supporters raised $30 million dollars within three weeks, he'd agree to run for president. He must have been greeted with a chorus of crickets because he has since rescinded this pledge.

Which is too bad because I think it'd be great to have the leader of the free world named "Newt."
