Best Republican ticket for '12?

[12th Doctor]

Gingrich/Watts

Gingrich/Rice

Gingrich/Snowe

Gingrich/Rob Wittman (provided Wittman doesn't f-up between now and then)

[AndrewTX]

I would vote for and prefer a Rell/Lingle ticket.

And I'd vote for a Specter/Snowe ticket.

I would vote for either of those tickets happily

[HappyWarrior]

Huckabee/Crist

Well I was making a comment about fantasyland

I may be way off here, but I wonder if Mel Martinez retirement might be the prelude to a 2012 White Hourse run.  If you look at the '08 electoral map, the first thing Republicans have to do is take away Florida, Colorado, New Mexico and Nevada from the blue column, and Martinez seems the most obvious choice for that purpose, not Romney and certainly not Huckabee or Palin.  So, if Republicans take away those four states, and if we give North Carolina and Indiana back to Republicans by default (they were won by microscopic margins by Obama this  year). then winning Ohio and Virginia or even only Ohio and New Hampshire would be all that is required.  So, I think Martinez is the most sensible Republican choice to head the '12 ticket for Republicans, and anyone can be put in the number 2 slot of he is there.

He was born in Cuba.

What's it matter? It's not like he wouldn't go down in flames.

True, but he was born is Cuba so he is not eligible to run.

For some odd reason, I never get tired of slapping down people for bringing that up.  That and people who talk about the Governator running for President, as though there is nothing wrong with that.

He was a one of the most ardent supporters of the Kennedy Amnesty Bill. Republicans will never vote for him.

The Socialist Worker Party's nominee isn't even a citizen.

Neither is the Democrats'.

I am confident Romney would take VP in a second, under almost anyone... even Huckabee.

Anyone but Huckabee.

What about Connie Mack and Linda Lingle?  The bumper stickers would read...

CONNIE - LINGLE

This is why I think that if HRC had won the nomination, she should have picked her husband as her running mate.  The bumper stickers would have read "Hill / Billy".

How about Crist/Graham?

[Хahar 🤔]

How about Crist/Graham?

Fag/Fag '12? That'll work out well.

[Marokai Backbeat]

If Republicans actually want to win? Chafee/Snowe

If Republicans just want to do the same old thing, their best realistic option is probably Romney/Crist.

[humder]

Dole/Kemp! Bring 'em back!

[Keystone Phil]

If Republicans actually want to win? Chafee/Snowe

Yes, keeping 90% of the base away from the polls is the winning strategy.

Yes, keeping 90% of the base away from the polls is the winning strategy.

And what would they have to argue about in the debates?

Is scaring away independents and conservative democrats also a winning strategy?

Uh...I think we can find a few people more conservative than Chafee and Snowe that don't scare away the voters you mentioned.

Anyway, your ticket is still worse overall for the GOP.
