Well, Gingirch Didn’t Last Long

After only a day on the site, the latest Quick Poll! has had to be taken down. Yesterday I asked whether Newt Gingrich would run in the presidential race. Today (Saturday) Gingrich’s spokesman told the Associated Press that the former Speaker would not be a candidate. He made the decision after discovering that forming an exploratory committee would compromise the tax-exempt status of his political organization, American Solutions. Those who voted in the poll got it right, but only just, voting 54% to 46% that Gingrich would not hit the White House trail.
