SEAN HANNITY: Before I get to the book, what do you think of the idea that I and others have suggested that maybe Newt be the next speaker?

CALLISTA GINGRICH: Well, you know, Sean, I worked in the House for many years. I love it as an institution and both Newt and I are deeply committed citizens. I think it's unlikely that he'll become speaker again, but I do have to say, if push comes to shove, we may have to step forward and help.

HANNITY: Don't you think he could help the Republicans? Isn't he a better strategist, tactician, wouldn't a new contract be invigorating for the Republicans considering 60 percent of Americans feel betrayed by them?

GINGRICH: Yeah, I think Newt is brilliant, and I'm biased, I'm his wife obviously. But--

HANNITY: He's pretty smart.

GINGRICH: His record speaks for itself.
