My thought is: Hate on Romney, but having Gingrich as VP, Newt could take all of the hits so to speak. Like Nixon/Agnew. Have a guy at the top while your second in command sticks it to the media. And doesn't back down. Would this be OK with FReepers? Looks like a fait accompli as far as Romney. Maybe we can get a nice VP who will stick it.

The only person I loathe just a shade less than Romney is Gingrich. I don’t even think I’d vote Third Party on that one. It would so disgust me I’d probably sit home.

I wonder if we’d even take a state.

What an utter nightmare that would be.

Gingrich/Santorum would be ideal.
Santorum/Gingrich would be livable.
Romney would be Purgatory, better than Hell that was Obama.

I would have to think about it for a while... but ... no.

Neither Romney or Gingrich would take the VP slot but Santorum would. The more likely question might be would you accept a Romney-Santorum ticket.

It would show Newt as one of the biggest hypocrites ever, but at least we’d know his price of his core principles

But then who would be surprised

At least we’d clean 2 losers off the stage for 2016

There isn’t a single person who Romney could choose as his running mate that would make him a good president.

We need a president that will take on the entrenched DC establishment. Romney isn’t going to do that. For that matter, neither will Santorum.

Please tell me how is Romney going to pick for his VP someone who “resigned in disgrace”, as Romney lied repeatedly in the debates. The media would never stop asking him how he could pick someone he said that about.

Not a chance in HELL!

Romney is a Progressive Liberal.

I don’t vote for Progressive Liberals, even with an ‘R’ next to their name and running against the Devil himself.

It’ll never happen. Too tense of a relationship between them IMO.

I know how much Freepers hate Romney,so let's see if they'll be FOOLed by a dumb stunt like this.

Tell ya what; turn it around and THEN we'll have a VP who can STICK it!

Nope, because I can’t count on Romney buying it sometime during his term and leaving Gingrich as president.

The VP is just a figurehead as far as I’ve ever been able to tell.

I'm voting for the (R).

I don't hate any of the Republican candidates. I don't love any of the Republican candidates. I want Obama out of office.
