I lot of people think that

I almost wonder
if he plans to run for President.

A lot of people think that he is at least considering it. His very public reentry into the US political scene just as the 08 race is getting started is a rather blatant sign.

He has not really gotten much traction so far though. Fred Thomson has pulled most of the Republican "we don't like the candidates" attention.

In any case I don't think he has a very good chance. He can't possibly stake a position as a Washington outsider, he doesn't have a lot of press charisma, he doesn't have a big personal fortune and his history means he will have great trouble pulling in any moderate.

Newt can be very clever though, and he may be angling for a VP slot. Just about any of the Republican candidates that wants to shore up their support with the Republican core will have to look at him.
