The site RightWingWatch (no link because they are insufferable progs) puts this article together like this would be a bad thing. The left just despise Palin with a rabid and insane passion of hatred. Personally I believe this would be an unstoppable ticket.
Last night during a tele-town hall hosted by Ralph Reed’s Faith and Freedom Coalition, a caller asked Newt Gingrich if he would consider choosing Sarah Palin as his running mate if he wins the Republican nomination.
Gingrich responded that Palin “is certainly one of the people you would look at” and told the caller that he is “a great admirer of hers,” saying “she was a remarkable reform governor of Alaska.” He also floated appointing Palin to a Cabinet position such as Energy Secretary because he “can’t imagine anybody who would do a better job of driving us to an energy solution than Gov. Palin.” Earlier this week, Gingrich pledged to fill the judiciary with graduates of the far-right Liberty and Regent University.
Outstanding ticket. Nothing but high paying jobs. Sanity is coming back to America. Newt would stop the 5b spent daily. The free world depends on this.
It’s just too damn bad it will not happen. Now its Ricks S. turn to be in the spotlight. Everyone will have had their turn even Ron Paul. And the GOP and establishment can name their main man Mitt as the man. As if there was really any doubt that Mitt would not get it in the first place. But like we say “perception is everything.”
If o ne but checks out the polls in South Carolina and Florida we see Gingrich far in the lead. This is not Newt’s first gunfight. The superpacs blew a lot of money beating down Gingrich in Iowa. Will that some tactic work in the following states? Don’t know, but Iowa has not picked the nominee for the GOP in a long time. Gingrich did not expect to be in the lead at this point. Time will tell, but Gingrich knows how to win. Cannot say that about Romney.
If Palin thought the Republicans stood a chance in Hades of winning this year she would have gotten in herself.
Thus, she won’t accept the Veep slot.
