“...if Romney says, “Newt, you want VP?”, Gingrich will say, “Yes, please.”
We have a very different take on that one. Newt’s reply would be more along the lines of “No Thanks.”
I seriously doubt Newt would enjoy playing second fiddle to anyone, but especially Romney, whose presidency (sic) could very well be a disaster for Conservatives and middlin’ for the country.
I know that were I at the end of my political life, I wouldn’t want my name to be an asterick after Romney’s name.
I think overall Romney will pick someone with a relatively low national profile with a decidedly solid but non-contraversial resume’.
Well, we’ll probably never know since Romney’s probably not smart enough to offer it to him.
And if he does offer it to him, we’ll probably only know about it if Newt accepts (if there’s a turn-down, it will probably be in private).
So only I will get to say “told you so”. You’ll probably be denied that chance, even if you’re right.
