It wasn’t hard to go from one to the other, since our candidates kept dropping out. Then it came down to Rick and Newt and people acted like their choice was a saint and the other was satan, when they should have liked both.
I think that broke between social conservatives and fiscal. Now we have the Country Club choice which is a small step in the right direction. Lots of platitudes and reaching out to moderates and taking the Conservatives/Tea Party for granted.
In the debates, Rick Perry couldn’t make a complete sentence without stammer and hesitation, now it may be that he was nervous being in the spot-lite, but he never seemed to be able to, but I will stop there being I didn’t watch any of his speeches in entirety. Newt never had that problem, and he articulated the mission like no one else could (Bachmann did come close when she started using the US Constitution in her answers), and I started totally out against Newt because of his working with Hillary on health-care.
