Being a frontrunner for the 2012 Republican nomination has taken its toll on several candidates. Donald Trump decided he’d rather focus on The Apprentice, Rick Perry forgot how to form a sentence and Herman Cain was exposed as a serial groper.
Current GOP favorite Newt Gingrich is the latest to fall victim, and according to Mitt Romney, the former Speaker of the House belongs in a straitjacket.
Ever since Fox News named him the “candidate to beat” in late-November, Gingrich has by all accounts gone insane. He’s announced a plan to save the US economy by turning Detroit into the world’s largest chocolate factory, and recently claimed the only way to stop al-Qaeda was to “hug them to death.”
Despite being checked into a psychiatric hospital last week, Newt hasn’t lost any ground in the race for the nomination. In fact, fellow mental patient Gary Busey officially endorsed Gingrich on Monday.
“It boggles my mind that a bloated lunatic’s poll numbers are so much better than mine,” a confused Ron Paul told OMGG.com. “Then again, even after his breakdown, Newt’s still twice as rational a person as Rick Perry will ever be.”
