This headline is bogus. It is only something the writer of this opinion added in. There is not talk of a shared ticket. Only that Newt has announced that he will support whom ever is the nominee. Newt just reaffirmed this claim on Meet the Press and FOX News.
I will also predict, that after tomorrow, and the kind of win that Romney will have, is going to force Newt to make that choice sooner. It will make Newt's effort impossible, and Santorum's as good as impossible. Newt's Super PAC supporter will also move over to Romney shortly after.
Newt will support Romney. He is not that stupid to believe that Santorum has a Snow Ball's chance in Hell of beating Obama. Even with him as the VP. After all, Newt loves his country above all else and will do what is best for it.
So I guess that means that you want Romney to win, but cannot tolerate Santorum?
Sorry, but Romney is the worst candidate here, not Santorum, and not Gingrich.
