\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here’s a political synchronicity courtesy of Saturday Night Live, a show that – like Newt Gingrich – survives on its lauded heyday long ago. Except, SNL certainly will outlast Newt’s campaign for the Republican nomination for the U.S. presidency. After a week of foot-in-mouth statements undermining his own party, it appears the Newtster is on his way out less than two weeks after entering the race.<\/p>\n

In fact, that matter is at the heart of the synchro. You see, the weekend before Newt formally announced his intention to run for prez, SNL performed a political skit featuring several possible Republican candidates in a debate. They included ‘Newt’ not only because it was apparent he would to step into the race, but he was also an easy target for SNL humor.<\/p>\n

The debate host poses this question to him:\u00a0\u201cNewt Gingrich, you\u2019re never going to be president and I have a feeling you don\u2019t really want to be \u2014 would you like to duck out early?”<\/p>\n

Newt readily agrees and walks away from the debate. The skit was funny at the time, but now it appears precognitive as well. You can watch it here<\/a>. Newt’s departure appears three minutes into the skit.<\/p>\n

The lesson: if you’re running for president as a Republican, it’s probably not a good idea to call the party’s plan to destroy Medicare as ‘radical right-wing social engineering.’ Nearly every GOP member of the House of Representatives voted in favor of turning Medicare into a voucher program run by insurance companies. The vote has not been received well by seniors, a crucial voting block, and now Newt has given the Democrats more ammunition to use in the races next year against many of those GOP congressmen and women, who are up for re-election.<\/p>\n
