Donald Trump says there’s a 40 percent chance he picks someone from this year’s Republican presidential field as his vice president. But the odds-on favorite to win the veepstakes: Newt Gingrich.
The former speaker of the house was a perpetual thorn in the side of the Bill Clinton administration. And he sounds like he’s relishing a shot at Hillary Clinton. Gingrich has lavished praise on Trump. The business mogul has not said much about the man named Newt. But oddsmakers and betting markets like Gingrinch’s chances nonetheless.
In this unpredictable election season, bookies have some other strange options in mind for Trump. On betting site PaddyPower, you can place money on Mitt Romney (66/1), Lindsey Graham (80/1) and even Trump’s daughter (50/1) as of May 13...

I like Newt, but I don’t think that it should be, or will be Newt.
This is misdirection, IMHO. The actual choice will be unconventional and more exciting. Newt is solid. I would love to see him as Chief of Staff. The VP should be someone young, to groom as a successor.

Worthless piece of cr** trying to sell news....except it's not news.
When Trump picks a VP, it will be news.

Newt for Chief of Staff. I don’t think it would be helpful to the cause to run him as VP with so many Newt haters out there. Somebody that knows how to be a team member is what Trump, and we need to win this, and someone without baggage.
Yes I know everybody has baggage. It’s a degree thing.
BTW we are not Newt haters here at the ranch, and would love to see him in high office, but we have an election to win, and Trump is targeted with similar crap as Newt. Can’t hand two of them to the Commie Left to beat up on. We have no choice but to win.

Perhaps six of those have a shot (Mike Pence, Jeff Sessions, Mary Fallin, Joni Ernst, Condi, Scott Brown), plus Jim Gilmore of VA.

Newt and Sessions are the only two on that list that I would even consider.

Allen West has been very negative about Trump on his Twitter feed. Donald only rewards loyalty.
To: monkapotamus
Sessions is the only one on that list that is a possibility.
Some are not even eligible.
I think maybe someone younger.
