    A thought just occured to me.What if sometime in the next
    month or so,Newt announces he will pick Sarah Palin as his V.P.
    Like man that could put him over the top.
    Palin just wrote a glowing piece basically saying Gingrich not only won
    last night but would mop the floor with Obama in ANY debate
    Anywhere.
    I personally feel Newt Gingrich is the best man by far in the field of
    Republican contenders.Some say he's won all the debates thus far.
    I feel he's won all of them.He's no doubt the most knowledgable and
    also most gifted when it comes to actual problem-solving.
    This country needs a problem-solver not some guy with a smile and
    a haircut.

    Experience wise, knowledge wise, and as an experienced orator...... I would pay to see a 2 hour no moderator debate between Newt and the Obama. Obama would be stuttering, hemming, and hawing...............

    That said, I don't think that our admiration is enough to get him elected. He has personal baggage that turns off a large segment of the party. He does however have a place on the ticket of whoever wins the primary as VP IMO.

    If she ever endorses one candidate--that person will enjoy a big boost.

    Actually there is NO baggage.It's all invented.Like the bogus Ethics
    charges where out of over 80,only one stuck { something about
    a college teaching course he claimed a deduction for }.Eventually
    even that charge was purged as the IRS investigated and found
    no illegality.By that time it was too late.The Dems had effectively
    Boogymaned Newt.All I can tell as far as baggage is a sick wife
    who in hospital he cheated on.

    Palin on the Newt ticket is the perfect answer for both.
    It will put Newt's funraising in auto-pilot and give Palin the
    needed gravitas she has been accused of not having.That she's
    basically a not too intelligent frontier gal.

    He cheated on his first wife once he found out she had uterine cancer. A short while later he went to the hospital and presented her with divorce papers while she was recovering from that cancer surgery.

    He marries the mistress making her wife number two but then cheats on her with yet another mistress once he found out she was diagnosed with MS.

    He then makes that mistress wife number 3.

    I will make the assumption that she better not get sick but there is no assumption to me made on this man's character. He doesn't have any at all.

    So then J.F.K wasn't a world class philanderer.
    And Bill Clinton a masher.

    Is this what is called cronic dickitis?

    The entire guy is swallowed up by his dick, and when the sick wife looks for someone at home, the new girlfriend has to step in to answer the door.

    Do I guess that this is a very common plague all across the male population?

    You forgot he converted to baptist..a monumental flip flop.

    All this BS about Moral constitution from a guy who was brought up in 83 different charges of corruption..all made to go away when he RESIGNED.

    Read That again.. RESIGNED to avoid prosecution.ETHICS.. 83 counts

    I will never vote for Newt..you sheep debate how Romney will say anything and re invent himself..do a LITTLE study about Newt before you sell your soul.Slick and Bull poop is Newt all the way.Let Palin commit political suicide..

    I would rather deal with a powerless Obama surrounded by Republicans than a cheating liar who thinks back room deals are the old new norm.
    I am teaching my kids ..that hard work..good deeds and not cheating should be rewarded..not penalized because of your religious beliefs.
    If Newt wins the nomination over Romney ..I will join the Paul pack of NUTS.

    and I despise Paul..but at least he is honest and hasn't been convicted of corruption..His ethics are not a problem..

    I can live with honest differing policy differences..I wont with tax cheats..liars and crony politicians.

    Do I need evidence? I'm only taking your approach to debating.

    Comments usually involving how Romney is the greatest and how Ron Paul has no idea... Yet you clearly don't want to debate the Policies you seem to attack. All I hear is you speaking your mind and once someone else challenges you it's "La la la la la".

    Just because you don't post anything from the Romney campaign doesn't mean you're not pushing for him without actually debating his Policies.

    Yes, when we post Youtube vids of Romney saying one thing and then something completely different comes out of it later in another video it's worth showing. Maybe you don't enjoy the fact that Romney is bought and paid for while having the Political Ideology of bending to whatever the Political Winds blow him.

    Would you vote for John Edwards based on class alone, because thats as close to "class" as Newt is.

    Well, if a guy named "Barack Hussein" can get selected, surely a man named "Newt" can.

    Well, if Newt and Sarah were on the same Republican Ticket then that would be three reasons to not vote Republican.
    1. Newt has too much personal baggage and cannot win.
    2. Sarah is a crazy nut and could not win.
    3. Anyone that would pick Sarah as a running mate should be locked up in a nut house, not running for president of the USA.
