I’d rather have a more conservative Perry as the front runner for the race, but Gingrich does have good election strategy.

TLC offered her a second season and she turned them down.
Sarah Palin Negotiating Season 2 of Hit Reality Show
Sarah nixed it because it would have been in production when she was considering running.
Btw, The Daily Mail is a gossip rag. I trust them like I trust CNN and MSNBC.

Maybe more than a ploy or gimmick on his part. Remember this? Thanks for the reminder, GW. I needed to hear that. I'd completely forgotten that Newt was one of the few national league Republicans who ever came to Sarah's defense.

Newt Gingrich also suggested Governor Susunna Martinez, New Mexico, for VP during the Q & A segment of his Townhall on CSPAN.

Yes I remember that and some may remember Newt's interview with Greta after one of the debates. After Greta asked her first question, Newt stopped her and said before he answered her question, he wanted to let everyone know about Sarah's great Sept 3 (?) speech. He said EVER American should read her speech and he said he was going to tweet out a link to her speech the next day.....which he did. He has on other occasions, given Sarah credit and has complimented her, and he has talked about her serving in his administration, should he win.
The spin and lies from those supporting other candidates is getting a little old. Time to take this election seriously. Actually it is long past the time. Should Obama or Romney win the election, our country is done.

Newt came out hard in defense of Sarah Palin was she was named VP. He tore the reporter apart for questioning her credentials by hammering out a list of Sarah's accomplishments and juxtaposing it against Obama's LACK of accomplishments.
Left the LSM reporter dumbfounded.

I can still hope can't I, LOL. The Vice-Presidency, under Gingrich, is likely to carry even less weight than Joe Biden's.
Gingrich's executive history (i.e., when he ran the House) is not that of a delegator and enabler of his subordinates.
Gingrich's VP would have little power and even less authority. Thus, not in a position to make any kind of difference in any kind of policy matter.
In other words, it would be a job to stand well clear of for anybody with any future ambition.

I’m not too sure about that. I think Newt the leader and historian, will get to work from day one instituting a revolution much like Reagan’s and he will want a strong VP to help him carry it out, unlike the weak VP Reagan had.

I hope you're right. But his history suggests otherwise.
Newt's an idea guy -- not an executive/manager sort.
That's OK -- IF he recognizes it and adjusts his staff and support group accordingly.
