Newt probably won’t waste his time in caucus states, as that requires organization on the ground.

That's what I'm thinking, although I'm puzzled as to how he might frame that.

Speaker Gingrich will hold a press conference with Sarah Palin at his side, and declare he knows the Republican Party well enough to know it is corrupt, and irretrievable.

With that, he announces he’s forming an independent run with Sarah Palin as his running mate, under the banner of the “Tea Party”.

(gotta start a real party somewhere).

He will cease all GOP campaign activities, and the new Party will begin national campaign organizing in Arizona.

Well, if we’re doomed to another zero election victory this November, we may as well have fun in our handbasket express to hell.

Who says Gingrich / Palin wouldn’t win.

I sure as heck would vote for them.

Bet you would too. And Trump wouldn’t be able to mess things up. He chose sides already. Sorry Donald, you’re fired.

America first.

WE need to shake this up even more, with a Brokered Convention. I would also love to see a third party with Newt and Sarah.

The establishment will still pimp Romney, and we will more than likely lose, but can you imagine Newt in the place of Ross Perot? If it were Newt, we may have won it in this new world that is the opposite of ‘92.

If Newt and Sarah get in early enough, the money will flow their way and Romney will be under pressure for once. And when Romney is under pressure, he comes apart like wet toilet paper.

Worst case scenario; Gingrich gets out of the race and endorses Santorum. Believe it or not, that could end up being a best case scenario. I like Newt and he’s been my first choice. I’ve been a bit ticked off at Santorum for running ads against Newt recently. All that aside, I would be happy to see Santorum run against Romney head to head.

I’ll fight to defeat Romney in this primary. But if he wins the nomination, he’s got my vote and probably even my door to door efforts. Obama is doing terrible things to the country; not just the economy. He’s infringing on religious freedom, depleting the military, and his supreme court nominations will be automatic liberals who don’t follow the constitution.

I understand the many reason to never support Romney, but will the country in better shape in 2016 after a 2nd Obama term, or 2020 after a 2nd Romney term? I am confident that at the end of a 2nd Romney term, life in American could be better than it is today. I’m confident that at the end of a 2nd Obama term, life in America will be worse than it is today. If Romney is voted out in 2016; life in America will still be better than it would be at the end of a 2nd Obama term. This is only if Romney gets the nomination, of course.

Should we coelesce behind Romney today? NO WAY! If he wins the nomination, take your time to get on board, but by all means, get on board.

Oh, heck yeah, I’d vote for them.

But if Newt goes third-party, so does Paul, to independent or
green.

If zero has 40% locked up, or even 35% there is no way Newt, Mittens or Paul can get a 36%. But like I said, if we’re going to lose to zero, may as well have fun doing it.

I would think you would need a bank full of money to run as an Independent. Newt does not have that kind of money.

Whatever it is, it’s gonna be BIG. Otherwise, why do it? He knows such an announcement would get major press coverage, hoping he was announcing that he was getting out. I’d be surprised if that’s the reason. Whatever it is it’s gonna be HUGH!!!!

If Romney becomes the nominee I write in for President and vote downline. No way will I ever cast a vote for Romney.
