Hillary-Newt Ticket Talk Electrifies Democrats

(2005-05-13) -- A joint news conference appearance by former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-NY, has set off "an electrifying buzz" at Democrat National Convention headquarters about the possibility of a Clinton-Gingrich '08 ticket.

"It's the ultimate tolerance ticket," said one unnamed DNC source. "It's the perfect illustration of our Democrat commitment to the big-tent principle."

Mr. Gingrich, who engineered the Republican takeover of the House in 1994, downplayed talk of a White House bid, but acknowledged that he and Sen. Clinton "see eye-to-eye on a surprising number of political ambitions."
