And FReeperdom is throwin' it back!
If a conservative wins, lets keep only conservatives in the adminstration.
Santorum/Martinez ‘12.
I run, and originated, the Newt ping list here at FR.
I will simply say this:
If Newt becomes the nominee, and his internal polling, advisers, and personal wisdom determine that the best way to beat Barack Obama is to put Mitt Romney at the bottom of the ticket, I would not object. Mitt is not my first choice, however, by any measure.
Reagan chose Bush to unify the party in 1980, and Team Bush was every bit as ugly toward Ronnie as Team Mitt has been toward Newt. If following Reagan’s example means victory over Obama in November, then I would not mind throwing a bone to the other side of the Party.
After all, we would own the TOP of the ticket for a change, and it is the TOP of the ticket we’d be voting for. That being said, because we we own the TOP of the ticket, I am willing to compromise at the bottom of the ticket if absolutely necessary.
I don’t see it happening, however. Team Mitt made their attacks very personal, and continue to do so. It would be a shocking alliance, to say the least.
If it’s Newt, it’s going to be Chris Christie. A Southern conservative balanced by a Northeastern moderate.
Anyone who would agree to run with Gingrich is out of his or her mind. Gingrich is trash.
Noooooooo waaaaay!!!!
>> Just throwin’ it out there... =) <<
Yes, but why?
Throw that idea right on the compost pile - it’s CRAP.
Why not Gingrich/Paul? /s
Never forget...ALL MSM will be in the tank for Zero.
Never forget...Zero has the advantage of incumbency and Air Force One.
Never forget...Zero has been campaigning already for 2nd term non-stop since February 2009.
Never forget...Zero will have a Billion dollars to attack the GOP ticket with.
Against these odds, the GOP has one and only one chance to defeat the Kenyan socialist....UNITY. If there is no unity among republicans in November 2012, just fuhgett about it.
Whichever ticket unites republicans is the only winning ticket.
If Gingrich gets it, I hope he picks someone not currently or previously in the race. Not particularly a fan of Rubio anymore as he strikes me as someone that is put on a pedestal simply because of his heritage, but I’ve heard his name thrown around. I hope it’s someone that will really add to the ticket like Palin did, but I don’t want it to be a pick of a woman or a black or a Hispanic as the main criteria. Pick a true blue conservative with some charisma and fight whomever he or she might be.
