My opinion is 'Somewhere in the middle'.
He was a pretty darn good speaker of the house (IMO) under Bill Clinton during the late 90s, which saw the US debt shrink for the first time in decades. Closest guy I could compare him to in other ways would be Silvio Burlusconi - especially the private life. Has a lot of skeletons in his closet.
Personally, I prefer him over Romney, but both aren't great great, really.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
