• If Newt Gingrich just gave up on his presidential run yesterday, announcing in an impromptu press conference, ‘You know what? Screw this, I’m done,’ we wouldn’t blame him.
• New York Magazine’s Daily Intel • Putting into words what everyone was thinking. From crises that were political (getting ripped by everyone in your own party for daring to criticize Paul Ryan, then being forced to apologize to him); to those that were embarrassing (the release of a video of you getting your ass handed to you by some guy); to those that were vapid (rumors that your wife rang up a half-million-dollar bill to Tiffany and Co.); to, finally, those that were silly (getting glitter dumped on your head), Newt dealt with a bit of everything yesterday. Good God — it’s surprising he hasn’t imploded yet. source
