After flirting with idea to run for President, Newt Gingrich WISELY gives it up.

After NEEDLESSLY flirting with idea to run for President, if he can raise $3o million by October 21st, including going to the extent to allow his supporters to launch a DraftNewt movement, replete with big ideas, and making people question his motivations, Newt Gingrich WISELY gives it up.

But the question that remains in my mind to be answered is whether any of the candidates "promised him a Rose Garden", as maybe someone's promised him a Veep spot, in order to get him to quit his flirtation.

Was that you, Fred Thompson, who made the promise?
