Cain is still my first pick, but Gingrich has always been high on my list. I didn’t think he could make it across the threshold at 1600 because of all the baggage he’s carrying, but I am changing my mind.
My dream ticket at this point is Cain/Gingrich, but I could go the other way. Cain is the sales guy that can bring it straight to the American people, but Gingrich is always the smartest guy in the room wherever he is. I believe he would be a great Cheney type VP. He knows DC, and he knows where all the skeletons are buried, and he could be a great “behind the scene ball buster”.
It would be especially satisfying to those of us who remember how the left and the media hated him as Speaker. OMG anyone who thinks they were unfair to W, needs to go back and read some of the venom spewed at Gingrich. Time magazine put a doctored photo of him, full face, as the Grinch, and called him “The Gingrich Who Stole Christmas”. LOL! It would give me great pleasure to watch the MSM heads exploding election night having to refer to a President, or Vice President Gingrich. Pure joy it would be! An early Christmas gift.
I’m not saying Newt is perfect, but looking at the slate of candidates he far and away the best option at the moment. Sarah pretty much guaranteed that by sitting it out. I could give two you know whats who Sarah endorses or what she says on Fox News. I don’t see how she is “affecting change” without having a job title, for me at least. I also am having a hard time forgiving her as she was by far the best choice.
