“So if Cain wins the nomination and chooses either Perry or Gingrich for VP, which one would you prefer?”
Between those two...probably Perry, just because the MSM would have a field day with Newt’s personal life and make him into another Quayle. Perry would not be as much baggage. But given that Cain really needs someone who’s been around the block in DC, maybe some Senator (or former Senator), but no name comes to the top of my mind.
Good answer — not because you picked Perry, but because you demonstrated that whatever opposition you have to him is principled, not petty.
I don’t always agree with you, but I can resume taking you seriously. :-)

Gingrich, back in the day, was more than just a contender. He took it to them and won. And, along the way, he helped change the political landscape for the better.
He might not be the ideal candidate for President, but as VP?
Being practical, I recognize him as a former Speaker who knows how it's done and who has an insider's knowledge of where the bodies are buried.
The VP can be a powerful position and Gingrich knows how to wield power. Teamed up with the charisma and common sense appeal of President Herman Cain? Yeah, buddy...
