I dunno. Newt is not from Georgia now any more than Algor was from Tennessee when he became VP. Newt/Al is/was from DC now/then. The primary thing to keep in mind, though, is that Newt will never, ever be the POTUS, while I'm starting to change my mind and think Herman just might have a bit of a shot at viability. Not sure yet.
Newt would be an awesome Secretary of State.
