I am just glad Newt is running being that he is from Atlanta and all. By the way what is the difference between a newt and a salamander? Maybe Quinn can look that up in her OED.

From the newt and salamander web page [yes, there really is one]:

There is no meaningful difference. The distinction is more historic and linguistic than scientific. Newts are a subgroup of salamanders. All newts are salamanders, but not all salamanders are newts. The following are the things that distinguish newts from salamanders.

A salamander is called a "newt" if it belongs to one of the following genera: Cynops, Echinotriton, Euproctus, Neurergus, Notophthalmus, Pachytriton, Paramesotriton, Pleurodeles, Taricha, Triturus, or Tylototriton. This is the only distinction that is always true.
Newts generally spend more of their adult lives in the water than salamanders. However, there are exceptions (terrestrial newts and aquatic salamanders).
Newts generally have more distinctive differences between the sexes and a more complex aquatic courtship. Again, there are exceptions.

Have you? Really?

 

I haven't.

[P.A.]

So Newt is likely to spend more time in the water than other slimey things like him?

[Quinn]

We had quite a popular rock band up in these parts, back in the day, called "Newt and the Salamanders", although I'm not sure how relevant that is to the discussion at hand.

We already have TeeBubbaDee to put forward as our 'one'!

I think I saw it on msnbc...

They said, at this rate, given the declared and possible canidates, the Republicans are handing the next Presidency to Obama.

But, But, But, what does Fox Say?

Didn't they have to fire him or something, so he could run?

You can probably tell that I really keep up with these things.

When I really want insightful answers I go over to "We The People".

Generally speaking, I don't vote for incumbants.  "Throw the bastards out", as my dad used to say!
