   ha…i like your man! i agree completely with everything he (and you) said. that’s why i hope, and believe, newt gingrich will have a big resurgence. he doesn’t have a lilley-white complex and i think he knows free enterprise so well you could say he invented it with jack kempf. look newt’s character flaws have been exaggerated and what ones their were have been cured with his lovely new wife callista and his new conversion to the Catholic Church. He doesn’t boast about that. He acts more like the humble publican. He doesn’t make moral judgments like Santorum. His intelligence is infectious. His enthusiasm is catching. He is sincere and with Gravitas about Iran and the looming conflict with Islamo-fascism. He could pass what needs to pass in Congress because, like LBJ, he knows it like LBJ knew it. Yes I would go to the Convention as a Gingrich supporter. If he could not, and the others could not win a majority, a brokered draft (not Trump!) could be a good outcome. Nominations I suspect would occur for Sarah Palin, but I would hope Paul Ryan as well, who is great with articulating the conservative position on the issues. Some like Mike Pence who also looks presidential. Presumably Marco Rubio would be nominated for at least VP and maybe more (though he looks just out of college!). So I think there’s good hope that someone with a clean background – like Ryan – will be found. I think, for instance, a Ryan-Rubio ticket would make the Democrats quake in their boots, I really do! So, in conclusion its “Go Newt!” or “Ryan-Rubio!” for me!
