If I am not mistaken, newt’s been with the same woman and same wife for well over a decade now. No one is excusing his past, but the pros severely outweigh the cons at this stage of the battle.
At this stage of the battle, votes for Santorum translate into a win for Romney. It’s clear.
And a win for Romney means either the milktoast middle of the road mindset prevails. This means NOTHING gets done to advance conservatism. Nothing.
If a Romney win translates into a win for Obama, the pro-life cause will be all but SILENCED. Already Catholic healthcare institutions are being forced to prescribe birth control pills against their will among other evil injustices. What would be next?
I can’t even imagine what would be next. It would be the triumph of the Culture of Death, perhaps for decades. What they do we say to the unborn? What do you say to your children, who will be saddled with debt for the rest of their lives? What do you say to our elders, who will face dwindling healthcare resources and a culture that says to them: you are useless after whatever age WE dictate as the cutoff. Now, take this pill and go home.
Romney wins and we conservatives are OUT of the fight.
Please, think it through.
