While watching the news yesterday, I saw a clip of Newt Gingrich making a speech standing in front of a model T car. I couldn't tell you what he was saying because I was totally focused on the image of 68 year old Newt standing in front of an even older automobile.
When you are a grumpy old man running for president trying to connect with younger generations, does it really help to stand in front of a Model T when you make a speech? Why not just come out in your underwear and robe, yell "Hey you kids! Get off my lawn!" and get it over with?
