Great idea! Because Sarah Palin was the key to victory for McCain in 2008. Other great ideas in the same vein: Snooki for Secretary of Defense, the winner of American Idol for Secretary of State, and the fat gay guy from Survivor to run Homeland Security. Call it the Reality TV ticket.

Astronaut appears to be another member of the conservative (maybe) circular firing squad you see so much of here at FR.

Presidio9: I’d prefer that Gingrich select Alan West as VP, and find a Cabinet position for Palin. Interior or Energy seem like the best fits.

I think it is very unlikely that SP would accept the VP spot for any candidate. She declined to campaign this time around. However, it think it would be a very smart move by Gingrich to nominate her as his candidate for Energy Sceretary already now.

Given that Gingrich recently dropped Dr Katharine Hayhoe (climate alarmist) it would be much easier for SP to accept.

Actually, no. I’ve been speaking out against the circular firing squad for some time now. I’m prepared to get behind any legitimate candidate (that excludes racist loon Ron Paul) and concentrate on defeating the Muslim Marxist in the White House.

That being said, Sarah Palin is a joke. She couldn’t handle being governor of Alaska, and quit to make money as a reality TV star. More power to her. I hope she continues to get very rich. But lets not confuse her celebrity with any kind of qualificaton to serve as president. She would bring nothing to Gingrich, Romney, Perry or anyone else at the top of the ticket except massive negatives. Our nominee can do a lot better for a VP. Rubio? Cantor? There are so many better possibilities than Palin.
