While I don't think he could win the general election due to character issues, he would serve the party's interest by coherently stating what conservatism is really about and why the country voted overwhelmingly for conservatism some time ago. Newt is a "big ideas" guy, something the GOP has been devoid of for about ten years, and would at least get the party back on track for gains in the future. Interesting, but it would almost definitely be a 2012 sacrifice and I don't see it happening. He's big on Bobby Jindal. I could see him pressuring Jindal for a run and advising him in 2012.
