Willing to Accept Santorum-Gingrich Ticket-Just Keep Newt's brain working for America
March 15, 2012 | Ralph Mitchell

Posted on 03/15/2012 9:23:10 AM PDT by mitchell001

It is hard to argue against Newt Gingrich's brainpower, skills, experience, ideas, & sincere desire to put America back in its rightful place as the leader of the free world both technologically and culturally. It would be ashame to exclude Newt Gingrich from the next administration that takes office, January 2013. In that vein, we conservatives should be willing to accept a Santorum-Gingrich or Gingrich-Santorum Ticket, denying Romney the nomination, in order to truly fix America with Conservative Ideas and Actions. This requires that both Santorum and Gingrich stay in the GOP race until the convention. Any takers?

Two socialists advised by a malignant narcicist...

So this chimera is like Obama but the schizophrenia caused by the hive mind might partially paralyze it leaving our rights and republic somewhat safe until the next election cycle?

Well, its marginally better than Obama...

And the RNC cant figure out why donations dropped off...

Santorum/Newt

Works for me.

Santorum can be the face, Newt the Pitt bull with Brains.

How about a brokered convention and McDonnell/Palin Ticket?

You have a point, and one I agree with. Vice versa, Newt would accept Santorum and he can teach him a few things, and he has much to learn.

I would go so far as to say, Santorum will not have NEWT anywhere around him, for the same reason you pointed out.

I do NOT want Sainbtorum on the ticket, period.

However, if Newt decides on a Newt/Ricky ticket, I would reluctantly accept it.

Other than that, this mess can go to convention, although I expect the whole damn thing to burst into flames.

I think that would work nicely. However, I think Newt would be wasted as VP. He’d be much better in a cabinet position—and I think he’d probably prefer that, too.

If you think Santorum and Gingrich are socialists, I am forced to assume that you have no idea what a socialist actually is.

................. He’d be much better in a cabinet position..............

Or, with Bolton at State, put Newt’s oratory to effect at the UN to shut up all those third world whiners.

I’d accept a combined ticket, though I honestly feel Gingrich should be the top of the ticket, and that if he is VP, that Santorum will either have to accept being a relative figure head status, or the infighting between the two will be legendary.

Just look at the current cycle, Gingrich may not have won any big states, but he and his ideas are CLEARLY driving the conversation. He attacked Obama on gas prices and put hte white house in panic mode, and its still the primary topic of converstaion, so much so now even Mittens is trying to co-opt it.

Gingrich should be our nominee, IMHO and if he were to be the beating that Obama would face will be monumental.. However, it doesnt look like that’s how its going to turn out, but I would accept it. I’d feel far more comfortable with a milk toast like Santorum as the top of the ticket with Newt on it, though I still feel Santorum’s a loser at the head of the ticket.. he’s just too easily painted effectively as an extremist, and he continues to provide soundbites daily that will be used against him in such a manner.
