VP Choices: Who do we want for Newt's VP?
Vanity | 1/18/2012 | BizHvyWt

Posted on 01/19/2012 11:08:45 PM PST by Bizhvywt

So, who should Newt pick for a Vice President?

It's never to early to start lobbying for this. We don't want a "Quayle" pick after all we've been through getting Newt this far. Natural Born Citizen's need only apply.

Sarah would be a better Energy/Interior/EPA head.

Petraeus would be kickass.

Otherwise, a popular serving govenor from the south or midwest.

McConnell from Virgina would be good.

Oops, make that McDonnell from Virginia!

Not McConnell the RINO cave-man from Kentucky.

Condi Rice!
Smart as a whip and a delightfully able woman.
She may accept if given real power within the administration, ala Dick Chaney. Newt needs a woman to soften his negatives among women and Condi would help with the African-American voters also. Sarah should be put in charge of the energy dept. (if we don't give it the ax).

I know the VP slot isn’t usually a big deal as far as getting enough votes to sway an election, but I don’t think Newt or Romney can beat Obama on their own. Each needs a very electable runningmate or we’re going to be looking at 4 more yrs of Obama and the further destruction of this country - No unknowns or people with skeletons in their closets or past controversies. The nominee needs to pick someone people are familiar with and who is liked already - someone the Independents will vote for.

The goal is to get rid of Obama.

I’ve been seeing a lot of posts suggesting Ohio governor John Kasick. Sounds like a good choice and given the state, a good strategic move.

Most likely, that is if Newt wins the nomination, he will pick someone from a swing state that can deliver a good number of electoral votes.

Natural Born Citizen's need only apply.

Good. That means Marco Rubio qualifies since he is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN who was born in Miami. The only other category is NATURALIZED citizen which he is NOT.
