babubabu, I agree with you.

I have watched Newt for years and have always thought that he was by far and away “the” most intelligent, articulate, and worthy conservative that the right has...

I like Jindal, I love Sarah.

But, we now need someone of Newts caliber to win back the house, senate, and Presidency.

Okay — please let me qualify;

Hear me out; Obie kept framing the argument — his words, “I want to talk about the future — John McCain wants to keep talking about the past.” Because once Wright, Ayers, etc…came out and were hurting him — he didn’t want to talk about the past.

So, IMO, the only reason Newt hasn’t run for President is because of the past.

But, using obies own tactic to beat the left to death with it — you clear Newts past — every time something from the past comes up, “there you go again, talking backwards...”

Then, especially at a time like this, with Palin as his VP…they, because of Newts sound Conservative Principles and Values and his hands down, no questions asked, undisputable knowledge of what it will take to get the country moving in the right direction and keep it moving in the right direction, both economically, politically, and internationally and her ability to draw the kinds of crowds that she drew in the 08’ election win this thing 2012.

Because as we witnessed during the 2008 campaign — this is now about taking on the opponent on the left, which now also includes taking on the media simultaneously...now, I ask, who on God’s green earth has the ability today on the right to stand toe to toe with the media as well as campaign simultaneously and not to mention, who would assemble a top tier campaign organization that would swiftly deal with “undisciplined behavior,” from inside his campaign staff...the shenanigans that went on inside the McCain campaign were reprehensible — if I had anything to do with it — those people would be unable to get jobs at a 7-11 let alone remain in Washington.

But throwing a Jindal/Palin ticket out there would amaturish...and would ruin their chances at ever getting elected...the press would divide them and conquer them...

We need someone (and I’m not saying it has to be Newt, but who else is out there) with Newts vision and ability to take on an opponent and the press — who else is out there.

Let Sarah become the Senator from Alaska — gain much more needed experience and then she will be ready.

But the ticket that would really get me excited would be;

Gingrich/Army General David Petraeus

Again, simply for what its worth IMHO...
