Although if anyone can screw things up from beyond the grave it would be George Carlin.

Agree on answer to Question 1...

On Question 2, stranger things have happened. Go back as far as the JFK/LBJ ticket: neither one was a big fan of the other, but, in order to keep the Dems unified, JFK accepted LBJ to get things done he would have could not have done on his own..

As far as Palin, that question was a bit more tongue in cheek than serious. It's just funny how the GOP leadership and mainstream supporters bent over backwards to justify her being on the GOP ticket and taking grand umbrage at any who questioned her bona fides. Now, she is reduced to being just another talking head on Fox News...

I agree, stranger things have happened. Historically, nominating someone for VP was thought to be a good way to get rid of them (didn't work so well when the person they "got rid of was TR ). Still, I just don't see Newt as wanting the job.

It'd be a helluva thing to see Romney and Paul, where Romney makes a point of saying he'll actually empower Paul to do something useful.

Only if he had a place for his stuff...

He would only need a smaller version of his stuff...
