Well, I hope Newt returns the favor and picks Cain for VP.

11/28/11:
>>It’s mid-2012. Newt Gingrich has won the Republican primary. (Thought experiment — play along.) Who does he choose as his running mate?

The former House speaker has said — only partly in jest — that he might like to share the ticket with fellow candidate Herman Cain.

Gingrich and Cain participated in a two-man “debate” that was more like a lovefest in Texas earlier this month, and before it began, they struck the classic running-mate pose: adjacent arms around each other’s waists, outside arms waving, like a two-headed presidential monster.

“I want you all to know, we both think you just saw the ticket, but we disagree about which of us has which job,” Gingrich said.

Cain added, “So let’s hold our hands up one more time like this. We’re just sayin’!”

You say “Well, I hope Newt returns the favor and picks Cain for VP.”

Political “favors’ have had a big part in ruining this country. It’s not a good practice.

Newt has already mentioned Rubio and Col. West as possible VP picks. Rubio says he wouldn’t run - Col. West, thank you God, is open to it.

Here is Col. West telling the media off for not reporting what they should be. This is man we need on the ticket...
(They came to Congress to berate them - “The Do Nothing Congress” - for not passing the President’s “Jobs Bill” while ignoring all he jobs bills the Congress HAD pass and sent to the Senate, where they are ignored.

West spoke to them - took advantage of all those mikes - ahaahahah - they got an earful, for sure - but not what they wanted.

Picture this ticket: NEWT/WEST

There would be mass hari kari in the world of media and the demRats.

Why not. After all the VP is the gag prize. It is about as valuable as a cupie doll prize at a carnival.

You seem to be reconciled to Newty. Why? Cain was my guy, but I don’t have to accept Newty simply because Cain endorses him—if Cain endorses him.

Newty is not conservative and is something of an unguided missile. Moreover, he’s so Washington status quo. IOsn’t it time we got some new faces—and ideas—working for us for a change?
