My sincere question for you is if given a choice between a candidate who stood issue by issue with yourself on the socon issues but was very Leftist on economic issues or a candidate who was indifferent or moderate on the social issues but a true free market pro business candidate, who would you choose.

You ask me, a Christian, that ???
OK
God could care less about the economy in the US..
God’s never been poor...He owns the cattle on a thousand hills...
He walks on gold in Heaven.. the streets are full of it...
But He does have a lot to say about murder and immorality...
Now, which would God prefer me to choose ???

In God's eyes, we're all as sinful as Obama or Romney, unless one has blasphemed the Holy Spirit - I would wager Obama has more likely caused the blaspheme.
Not pushing Romney, and probably won't vote for him, but I don't try to be more discerning than He Who Created Us.

I think your answer shows the division among both Republicans and Conservatives. Conservatives, from my perspective have been battling leftism throughout the post-WW2 era, while you represent the wing that supported Democrats through Carter, and came to Conservatism around 1980. The social conservatives broke from the Democrats over the cultural turmoil of the 60’s and 70’s, but still retained no real disdain for the Democrats big government statism. Example, Bob Casey Jr. crushing Rick Santorum in Pennsylvania. They both are pro-life, the social issues were off the table.
I think this election should be telling in where the citizens of the US really stand. If Romney wins, then we are truly a right of center country in fiscal and foreign issues. However if Obama wins, big government is here to stay. The only difference between the Left and Social Conservatives is where to use big government's power in running people's lives, while they both agree on the retention of the entitlement state.
