Gingrich Still Weighing '08 Bid

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich still refuses to rule out a run for the White House in 2008. In the meantime, he seems content to size up the existing candidates.

In an interview with National Journal's Linda Douglass, Gingrich says none of the Republican contenders have "begun to define a fundamentally different future." That's a problem: The odds of a Democratic victory are 80-20, he says, though he's careful to point out that circumstances could change dramatically between now and the first primaries.
