Newt Gingrich is a Deaniac

But what would you expect from a man who once tried to buy every student a 1994 laptop? According to this at the Washington TImes, former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich said

Dean clearly is a phenomenon, but not necessarily a Goldwater or a McGovern

....

Dean is more clever, and tougher

I'm not here to talk about phrases like "more clever, and tougher," but to suggest that Dean is tougher and more clever than McGovern the best known peacenik candidate for President and Goldwater, who is probably the best known example of "Oh my god, he's going to start a nuclear war" candidate since most people don't know Le May, then Newt Gingrich is probably the Dean's greatest supporter. That's like saying you're smarter and tougher than Gandhi and Hitler, but with a particular 1960s-70s perspective.
