Carson is a supporter of the Trump campaign.

Carson leaked names....as part of the Trump campaign.

They owned a piece of 2 news cycles with it. The talking heads talked about what Trump leaked.

I think he knows they are wind up toys.

I think Trump’s selection will be widely viewed by his supporters as a very wise choice. I suspect Trump knows the strengths and weaknesses of his possible choices by now. I saw Jan Brewer on Hannity again, and she was good but not great in her responses. She brings Arizona, and she fights. She knows the immigration argument forward and backward. She should show that when she’s on national TV. All that said, she did well.

Gingrich was on a couple of times. He was always in command. He has the verbal WOW factor and he fights like hell. He knows policy, both foreign and domestic, inside and out. And Romney hates him. He doesn’t bring a constitutency or a state, but he does bring the counter-argument to the Clinton’s “we balanced the budget.” He says, “Like hell. We FORCED a balanced budget.” He is fully ready to step in and be president if called upon. I also think he’d take ‘president of the Senate’ very seriously.

My own sentimental favorite is Newt, for all of the reasons you cite. My only concern is his age - 2 old guys, with that bastard Ryan as back-up, isn’t being risk averse.
