IMHO Gingrich actually gain from all these debates. Early in the primary he was dead with his Tiffany debts, and misspeaks when he dealt with the MSM early on. Then the strings of debates allowed him to coherently express his thoughts and views. Granted I do not agree with all of it, but at least he has a chance to lay it out. The Lincoln style debate with Cain helped and many of his town hall type meetings worked well. The polls reflect this. He has enough moderate streaks to not scare off the RINO’s and moderates, he is conservative enough to hold onto the conservative GOP and his mild manner can attract independents in the general election. IMHO Gingrich may be the best of all the GOP runners. Cain melted down, Perry is too incoherent (ala Bob Dole) and Romney’s liberal past will make the conservative GOP reluctant.
Well, that all may be but people can trust Rick Perry.
