And to me, the top story of the month will be the presidential election's primary, highlighted by Newt Gingrich's efforts to derail the Mitt Romney train from its Kerry-dom, Gore-ness, Dole-time, and Dukakis-tine infamy, I mean, destiny.

The overall highlight of this month was Newt saying how despicable it was for reporters to ask about his despicable behavior. And it almost worked. He knocked CNN's John King back when King asked what was on everybody's minds, but it didn't work in the long run, I believe.

In the end, he's still the crazy old coot that he always was, but he certainly made it fun.
