The traditional role of a VP in a campaign is the attack dog while the top of the ticket stays above the fray. I could see Gingrich relishing that role but but wonder how willing Trump would be to relinquish it.
I don't know how much sway Gingrich still has in Georgia but assuming he still has some it might also shore up a state that now looks light pink, not deep red.
He is apparently not waiting for the convention any longer. Looks like the pick will be out this week.
