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.
** President Newt Gingrich-”Our beloved republic deserves nothing less.”
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.
I see a man of heart and soul & a man who is highly intelligent. Together they would be phenomenal. That is the big argument we see here with the Newt vs Rick people. We both sides see qualities in these men that we want.
I got this off the ADF website.
The Agenda to Indoctrinate Children at School
These are quotes from a big leftist who want to change what your kids think “You may come to the conclusion that growing up means rejecting the values of your parents.”
“If we do our jobs right, we’re going to raise a whole generation of kids who don’t believe [the claims of Christianity].”
James Anderson, the former communications director of the
Gay, Lesbian, and Straight
There is an intense battle for the mind and soul of children at publicly funded schools where the dominant secular culture is undermining the Christian teaching of parents like you. Students are under great pressure to conform to the schools’ radical, anti-Christian views on issues such as abortion and homosexual behavior, which are imposed on them by secular textbooks, administrators, and teachers.
In fact, in states like Massachusetts – where same-sex “marriage” has been fabricated – school children as young as kindergarten are forced to learn about homosexual behavior in class – with or without parental permission.
As a result of this anti-Christian indoctrination in school, countless students begin questioning their faith and ultimately turn away from the Church by the time they graduate from high school.
I have 3 sons and 4 grandsons & 2 granddaughters and I do not want them exposed to the lefts lies. I want there innocence protected. If the media was reporting the important things that Obama, his leftist gay friends and the media is doing to steal our childrens heart and soul; most people would be outraged.
Last week some here were debating Newt and Rick. I could tell some were very anti-faith, so I tried to stay on economics. Finally I said that there are some things that are more important them money. I was excoriated and told it was the most selfish, mean, hateful thing this person heard. Maybe I did not explain good enough what I meant, but all of us nowayromney people can work together.
What good is having lots of money if your kids/grandkids grow up to be faithless, self-induldgent, sex obsessed, big leftist? Part of us, lives on in our kids and grandkids. We have to protect them at all costs.
This is only one part of the cultural issue. I think Rick could hit obama right between the eyes with this. Example: “Obama believes that it is not only ok to have an abortion up to 9 months in the womb, but also AFTER a baby is born. “ Lots of women have had an abortion and feel guilty (I was a counselor at a Crisis Pregnancy Center for years & worked with those considering and those who have had an abortion) He could say something like. “There are millions of hurting women out there who are victims (the left likes to make people victims, we can throw it back at them) of people like obama who told them, its ok to get an abortion, it's not a baby, so they did out of fear or panic. Then later it hits them what they did and they realize they can't take back what happened and wish they could. These women are suffering because of the lies of the left who don't value life. Even life of a newly born baby.” I have worked with these women and there are millions of them looking for someone to speak to there issue in a compassionate way.
We could go from social issue to issue. Many people out here are scared and don't like what they see this country turning into. I'm one of those. Newt people can cover the economics.....
Santorum is there to triangulate Gingrich. Santorum will run with Romney and lose.
I will go for Santorum-Newt ticket so long as Newt can say anything he wants!
Whoever wins the most delegates on the top. The people then chose that person, whoever it is.
Only if Gingrich is at the top of the ticket. I’m not voting for VP again...I did that w McCain.
I think it’s highly unlikely, though. Santorum was one of the GOP Establishment that turned on Gingrich (even though Gingrich had been his mentor) and dumped him because they were embarrassed at his success with the Contract With America and the Dems’ rage and resulting attacks. So I don’t think there’s any love lost there, and I think it’s highly unlikely that they would work together.
In any case, if either Romney or Santorum gets it, I’d expect them to pick Rubio.
Santorum is willing to have him as his VP, but is Gingrich willing to accept? Here’s what Santorum said publicly a week ago:
Santorum to Newsmax: I’d Consider Gingrich for VP
http://www.newsmax.com/Headline/santorum-gingrich-runningmate-alabama/2012/03/08/id/431942
If Gingrich would accept, Romney wouldn’t stand a chance. Let us pray...
I just found this... Gingrich is willing...
Looks like a go!
