As Newt Gingrich competes with Rick Santorum for the conservative vote in the Deep South this week, the former House speaker said Tuesday he wouldn't be surprised if the two forces eventually paired up.

"There's a certain advantage I think right now in having both of us tag-team Romney, because neither one of us by ourselves can raise the money to match Romney," Gingrich said on the "Rick and Bubba" radio show. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/03/13/gingrich-opens-door-to

Horrific thought. Imagine a Santorum/Gingrich ticket? Oh, wait, Gingrich would never stand for that, it'd have to be a Gingrich/Santorum ticket! Guarantees an Obama win, of course, but imagine what we'd have to sit through! I'd just quit watching ANY politics, myownself!

As an aside: "The Rick and Bubba Show"??? ((no comment))

Aides to Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry are downplaying a report the Gingrich campaign is contemplating offering the Texas Governor the number two slot on a presidential ticket.

"Of course we think very highly of Gov. Perry and appreciate very much his generous support, but this is not a topic the two principals have discussed," Kevin Kellems, a senior adviser to the Gingrich campaign, told CNN.

Gov. Perry thinks Newt Gingrich is the strongest conservative to debate and defeat President Obama and truly overhaul Washington. The speculation is humbling but premature," a spokesman for Perry told CNN.

Asked if representatives of Perry and Gingrich have talked about this possibility, Kellems responded "Impossible to answer because it is not feasible to track with confidence the individual, private communications of that many people in two camps spread across North America."

Fox News, which first reported the story Sunday, said some in the Gingrich campaign were having "preliminary 'what-if' conversations are underway that could lead to a Gingrich-Perry ticket being announced" prior to the Republican Convention. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/03/12/gingrich-perry-aides-d
