Now he tells fellow Republicans that they need to be "calm and factual" as they pursue answers from the Obama administration about the IRS and other scandals.

Had that happened, the 2012 race for the presidency could've looked different.

Still, the state is conservative enough to have kept him close with six weeks to go. And now he's been joined on the campaign trail by former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

Could a daytime talk show be next on the list?

Although he's popular and the economy was better then, it could be a risky strategy — because Clinton is not just a symbol.

Still, the prospect of another term for President Obama is likely to motivate conservatives to fall in line behind Romney, observers say.

So what happens to the leftover T-shirts and campaign buttons?

But Newt Gingrich might have a more pressing problem: His campaign has about $4 million in debt.
