Gingrich predicts Clinton/Obama ticket
WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats will nominate Hillary Rodham Clinton for president in 2008 and Barack Obama will be her running mate, former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich predicts.

The GOP will have three “formidable” choices in Mitt Romney, Rudy Giuliani and Fred Thompson, said Gingrich, who is considering whether to get into the race.

Gingrich is ruling out John McCain’s chances among the Republican contenders.

The Arizona senator “has taken positions so deeply at odds with his party’s base that I don’t see how he can get the nomination,” Gingrich said Sunday in a broadcast interview.

Gingrich said he had dinner recently with Thompson, the former Tennessee senator and actor who has set up a political committee that allows him to raise money for a presidential bid. An official launch is likely in September, after the Labor Day holiday.

Gingrich said he expects Thompson will enter what is shaping up as a competitive race for the GOP nomination against Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, and Giuliani, a former New York City mayor.

“I think that either Mayor Giuliani or Governor Romney or Senator Thompson would be a very formidable opponent for what I expect will be a Clinton-Obama ticket, and I think that there’s a possibility that will work,” Gingrich said.

In the fall, Gingrich might decide to jump in, depending on how the Republican candidates are faring against Clinton, the New York senator.

“If there is a vacuum and if there’s a real need for somebody to be prepared to debate Senator Clinton, then I would consider running. I think we’ll know that in October,” Gingrich said.

“But these three are serious people,” Gingrich said, referring to Romney, Giuliani and Thompson. “They’re working very hard. And if they can fill the vacuum, I don’t feel any great need to run.”

Gingrich spoke on “Fox News Sunday.”

Good thing ol' Newt Gingrich is standing by to save the day.

Is it possible for me to vote for half a ticket? Because there's a snowball's chance in hell I'm voting for Hillary.

Ron Paul or not at all.

If the last election is any indication on who will win then all you need is a written promise from the CEO of Diebold(the manufacturer of the electronic voting macines) saying that he will get you the votes you need in a swing state like Ohio.

If the democratic party nominates Clinton for president, it will be an almost guaranteed loss. Too many democrats can't stand her.

TheAmazon · 07-30-07, 09:46 AM

Can I call it or can I call it?

Well with the way things are, America loses no matter how you cut it.

Good ol' Gore the Second (with even MORE bland personality). He will play off his wife's illness to win over America and then be run stupid by both the House and Congress if he takes it.

Final Assessment: Not enough backbone to be a President and will be the team bish kowtowing to whatever demands anyone makes of him. What experience does he even have with international policy?
