George Will pointed out yesterday on ABC’s “This Week” his view that if you give Newt enough rope, the former speaker will hang himself.

Asked by Jake Tapper what‘s going on in Florida with Romney’s rise and Newt’s decline, Will states:

“Time is not Newt Gingrich’s friend because the more time he has the more he talks. And the more he talks the more he says things, as he just here this morning, he said that I would love to be civil, but I’m running against a maniacal liar. Now, that’s pretty strong language. I don‘t know if you have ever told Longfellow’s nursery rhyme to your 4-year-old daughter Alice yet. ‘There’s a little girl, had a little curl right in the middle of the forehead. When she was good, she was very good indeed. And when she was bad, she was  horrid.‘ And we’re at the horrid stage with Newt Gingrich.”
