A Trump/Gingrich ticket would make me feel almost fond nostalgia for the McCain/Palin one.

Perhaps we can get Mexico to build a moon colony as well as a wall?

Fox News Channel has mutually agreed to suspend its contributor agreement with Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich effective immediately.

Due to the intense media speculation about Gingrich's potential selection as Donald Trump's vice presidential candidate, we felt it best to halt his contributor role on the network to avoid all conflicts of interest that may arise," executive vice president for news Jay Wallace said.

By Eric Bradner, Dana Bash and MJ Lee, CNN



Updated 2151 GMT (0551 HKT) July 15, 2016

(CNN)Donald Trump said Friday Indiana Gov. Mike Pence is his choice to be his running mate.

"I am pleased to announce that I have chosen Governor Mike Pence as my Vice Presidential running mate. News conference tomorrow at 11:00 A.M.," the presumptive Republican nominee tweeted.
CNN reported Thursday that Trump had called Pence and offered him the vice presidential slot on his ticket. Pence has accepted.

The pick sets up a stark clash in styles: a brash presumptive nominee with a tendency to freelance into controversies alongside a cautious former congressional leader who's stuck close to conservative orthodoxy since starting his career in talk radio.
Pence took to Twitter shortly after the announcement, saying, "Honored to join @realDonaldTrump and work to make America great again," and the campaign debut a new logo featuring both names.
Pence's lawyer filed paperwork with the Indiana secretary of state office officially removing him from the governor's race Friday morning.
The Saturday event is currently scheduled to take place in New York Hilton Midtown in Manhattan, the campaign announced, after earlier plans to hold the event in New Jersey.
Trump did his best to keep the drama going Thursday after a frenetic day.

Clinton Beats Trump Among Latinos 76 Percent to 14 Percent


Donald Trump remains overwhelmingly unpopular with Latinos, a new NBC News/ Wall Street Journal/Telemundo poll shows, with only about one in seven Latino voters say they support the presumptive GOP nominee.

A whopping 76 percent of the 300 Latino registered voters in the poll said they back Hillary Clinton in a head-to-head race, while just 14 percent said they back Trump.

What's more, 82 percent of Latino voters say they have an unfavorable view of Trump, while just 11 percent view him positively.

A majority — 63 percent — of Latinos describe themselves as "pessimistic and worried" about Trump's ability to serve as president, while an additional 20 percent say they are "uncertain and wondering" about his capacity to do the job.

Clinton's favorability rating with Latinos is 64 percent positive, 25 percent negative.

The poll was conducted in English and in Spanish. Twenty-nine percent of respondents said they speak mostly English at home; 35 percent speak mostly Spanish and the remainder speak both languages equally in their household.

About half — 49 percent — said they seek out news about the election on Spanish language media, compared to 48 percent who do not.

Latinos, a fast-growing bloc of voters nationwide, have supported Democrats by significant margins in recent elections. But Trump's low level of support with the group is unprecedented.

Mitt Romney won 27 percent of Latinos in 2012; John McCain - a champion of immigration reform - garnered 31 percent support; and George W. Bush won around 40 percent in his re-election effort in 2004.

The poll of 300 Latino registered voters was conducted July 9-13 and has a margin of error of +/- 5.66 percent.

Looks rosy compared to his African American poll results in the swing states of Ohio and Pennsylvannia, guess the only way is up!
