Washington, D.C. (AHN) - Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Tuesday it is not too late for candidates to jump into the already-crowded 2008 presidential race and win their party's nomination.
[snip]Speaking before the National Press Club, the former Georgia congressman said he will decide whether to vie for the GOP nomination in late September or early October.
"I believe the challenges we face as a country are larger than the Cold War, larger than the Second World War and larger than the Great Depression," he said.
Gingrich added that the presidential primary races don't really begin in earnest until after Christmas.
"I think it is proven I'm candidate material," he said when asked if he could launch campaign quickly to compete in states with early primaries, including Iowa and New Hampshire.
C'mon in, Newt! The water's fine!
