Watching the Republican party implode is amazing. In 2008, they ran a war hero with a lifetime of public service. In 2012, they might be running Newt Gingrich, a serial adulterer, highly paid lobbyist (despite his claims otherwise), lifetime beltway insider, controversial blowhard, and guy that a bipartisan ethics committee ran out of Congress. You think Newt has an October surprise? Hell, I think he has a January, February, March, April, etc. surprise in store.

Romney Warns of ‘October Surprises’ if Gingrich Is Nominee

TAMPA — Mitt Romney raised the possibility that Newt Gingrich might have broken laws in representing corporate interests and warned of politically damaging “October surprises” if Mr. Gingrich became the Republican presidential nominee.

Speaking to reporters after a meeting with Florida residents who have lost their homes and businesses, Mr. Romney demanded that Mr. Gingrich release all documents related to his work for Freddie Mac, the mortgage giant, and other clients.

“Let’s see what they show; let’s see who his clients were,” Mr. Romney said, pointing specifically to work Mr. Gingrich did on behalf of health care companies. “That could represent not just evidence of lobbying, but potentially wrongful activity of some kind.”

Mr. Romney did not elaborate about what illegal activity he suspected. And a spokesman for Mr. Romney declined to say whether Mr. Romney had specific knowledge about “wrongdoing” by Mr. Gingrich.

“We won’t know until they release records,” said Eric Fehrnstrom, a senior adviser for the campaign. “We’ll find out once he releases those documents. I don’t think we’ll know until he comes clean.”

Mr. Romney also demanded that Mr. Gingrich return the $1.7 million that he was paid by Freddie Mac, citing comments that Mr. Gingrich made during a debate last year that people who profited from the mortgage giant should give the money back.

And Mr. Romney repeated his concern that Mr. Gingrich had a record in public life that was “highly erratic.”

“He’s gone from pillar to post, almost like a pinball machine, from item to item, in a way which is highly erratic and does not suggest a stable, thoughtful course, which is normally associated with leadership,” Mr. Romney said.

On the NPR this A.M. they were saying Newt founded a for-profit "think tank" involved in medical policy. Basically, you paid Newt's company 100k, and he could sit you down in a room with people sitting on the appropriate committees.
