Gingrich: Candidates look like 'game show contestants'
Gingrich made it clear that he is not a fan of the recent debates, calling them "game show" like and a "pathetic dance," in remarks Thursday at a luncheon in Raleigh, North Carolina. Gingrich said it is "fundamentally wrong" for 10 people to look like "game show contestants," each eagerly awaiting for a television celebrity to give them a chance to answer in 30 seconds a question which by definition you can't answer in 30seconds." Gingrich then took off to sign copies of his newest book, "Pearl Harbor: A Novel of December 8th."
