This is a brilliant political ploy. Newt stays above the fray while keeping the 11th commandment in tact. Newt’s too shrewd to think that Mitt would help the ticket.
That is how I see it. Playing chess not checkers.
I'm with you. I want Republicans attacking Obama, not each other. On the short list of attacks should be what is going on with MF - that is a national scandal. Over $1 billion stolen and nary a mention in our banana republic media.
exactly. Newt is being the gentleman still, not picking on the other GOP candidates. He is keeping his focus on the enemy: Obama. What ‘nasty’ thing can Romney say to him now for saying this?
Newt would never ask Romney to run with him, and likely none of the other candidates either.
“This is a brilliant political ploy. Newt stays above the fray while keeping the 11th commandment in tact. Newt’s too shrewd to think that Mitt would help the ticket.”
Exactly right. He was not going to take the bait and attack another Republican. He has pretty much been steadfast on that point and was the sole Republican candidate that I can remember who came out and supported Herman Cain. He is not going to have Mitt as VP. Now I do like Mitts choice of John Bolton as Secretary of State.
I’m wondering if he said this to tweak Romney. Letting Romney know that he’s going to be the nominee.
Pretty much exactly what I was going to post. This is 11th commandment stuff all the way, and I REALLY wish some of the other candidates would start paying attention to it too. The LSM just eats it up when they don't - playing right into their hands.
