I like Mitt, and think he would make a great President, but my heart is in the Gingrich camp. My head tells me that a Gingrich nomination is a long shot, but perhaps he could end up on the ticket in the VP slot. Maybe Rudy/Newt, or Mitt/Newt in 2008. I believe McCain will be rejected by GOP primary voters, but I don't think a McCain/Newt ticket is compatible anyway, because of McCain's enormous ego. I don't believe that McCain could stand the comparisons with Newt, especially given that McCain is an intellectual mediocrity, and Newt is brilliant.
you will get no argument from me.
I think Newt would be good as an advisor, but not on the GOP ticket.
We not only have to think about 2008 but also set someone up for 2016 that is electable. That is the problem with the Bush administration - no heir apparent. I would like a Guiliani/Romney ticket or a Guiliani/Bush(Jeb) ticket.
"I like Mitt, and think he would make a great President, but my heart is in the Gingrich camp. "
Gingrich said he thought free speech needed to be curtailed in the WOT and basically that people's online activity should be tracked.
He is also in favor of amnesty.
You sure this is the conservative guy you were thinking about?
