I think that the occasional bouts of sanity by Grinch caused them to leave.

It is no longer good enough to just talk crazy, you have to actually be crazy.

He’s really back-pedaled in the last couple of months, even though he wrote a book called A Contract with Earth.

After reading that book (which i still own) I thought Newt would drive the conservative charge to co-opt all things green. He didn’t exactly say that mankind was driving climate change but he didn’t rule it out either. He even describes Creation Care, a fundamentalist Christian movement where you can be a religious conservative and still hug a tree. Who knew?

Maybe he’s struggling internally with his party politics and his beliefs. They do seem to be at odds.
