Newt Gingrich: Brad Pitt could play me in a movieWe've all played the "which famous person could play me in the story of my life" casting game, and Newt Gingrich has joined in. According to TMZ, the Republican candidate for the presidential nomination has said that if he had to pick someone to portray him in a film, he'd pick straight from the A-list. "Brad Pitt," Gingrich told radio host Rich Stevens Tuesday of who could portray him. "Why not go for it?"
Admittedly, Gingrich doesn't look like the Oscar nominee, but hey, it would be in a movie. "No, I don't look like him at all," Gingrich said. "He's thinner, he's better looking, he's younger. But you asked me if I could have anyone who could play me in a movie, why not go for Brad Pitt?" Good point, Gingrich. Alright, so let's say you were casting a movie on the GOP presidential nominee race - who would you pick to portray Gingrich, Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum and Ron Paul?

Guy Smiley from Sesame Street as Mitt Romney.
The only thing those two have in common is ego.
Yes Pitt could play Newt, if he gained 238 pounds and cut off his head.
You can be played by either the Michelin guy or the marshmellow guy from Ghostbusters.
Talk about an inflated ego. I'm thinking Danny Devito would be perfect.
James Woods could play me if his nose were bigger.
HA ! i laughed so hard i peed
At least the guy has a sense of humor
Roger, that's an insult towards pigs. Newt Gingrich can only be played by himself. He's that repulsive.
Newt: Porky Pig
Mitt: Daffy Duck
Rick S: Granny
Paul: Tweety Bird
I am licking my balls for lunch.
the only person that could play newt is one of the three pigs...any of em.....they look like newt...probably smell like newt....and is fat like newt...only difference is the three pigs are'nt bigots!
Can't wait for Pitt's reponse on this...just as soon as he stops vomiting
newt: eric cartman
mitt: ken
rick: he can play himself, he's already acting.
ron: popeye
If they were still with us, the only choices would be Moe Howard, Curly Howard, Shemp Howard and Larry Fine. For those too young to recognize those names, the actors who were at various times the principals of the Three Stooges.
I would eat both of their butt h@les.
I think Brad just threw up in his mouth a little bit.
This is the first time I've laughed with Gingrich and not at him.
the sooooooo train. Dis week we be habing Ant Jemima and Afro die tey.
I would just let Richard Fore play with all of the above.
Who would I cast?
Rosie O'Donnell as Newt Gingrich, Mel Gibson as Rick Santorum, Clint Eastwood as Ron Paul and an inanimate carbon rod as Mitt Romney.
The resemblance is uncanny... It's like I'm seeing double.
