It is possible that William House of Huntsville, Alabama is waiting to see Newt Gingrich because he, Mr. House I mean, is a conservative who loves Newt Gingrich and everything for which he, Newt Gingrich I mean, stands. Or it is possible that William House of Huntsville, Alabama is waiting to see Newt Gingrich because he is a progressive who wants to give Gingrich a piece of his mind, or because he is a moderate and, hey, free candidate!

The point is, I don't know why William House of Huntsville, Alabama is hanging out at the US Space and Rocket Center in his patriotic top hat and tie and suspenders, and I will make no judgments.

All I know is that he is a patriot with extraordinary fashion sense who wants to show some goddamn spirit on Super Tuesday and loves the democratic process!

And, in that, we are kindred spirits.
