Did I mention the affair he was having while trying to get Clinton impeached? Yep, he's a peach. Newt’s approval ratings were 28% and his own party was plotting to get him out.

It's either Favre or nothing at this point, so I don't think we can blame Florio too much for the all Favre all the time. I'd prefer to have something to read, even if it's about Favre, when I pull PFT up when I'm supposed to be working!
