......"In the nineties, Mr. Nussles current wife was working for Mr. Gingrich; while Mr. Gingrichs current wife was working for a committee which Mr. Nussle served on in the House of Representatives.
Furthermore, both men were married when they began affairs with each others staff members all while Mr. Gingrich was leading the investigation into Bill Clintons extramarital affair with Monica Lewinsky. This is an unfortunate irony.
More importantly, it points to a willful disregard of personal behavior and you are forever linked to both of these candidates in a way that is unacceptable for many of us who demand Christian leadership.
Which brings us to our next concern."....

Cain's backers warily consider Gingrich........."Newt is famous for being all over the board," Cary Gordon, an influential pastor from Sioux City, Iowa, told the Des Moines Register. "He is admirable in many ways, but I won't back him. I don't trust him."
Cain, for his part, told senior staff members in a Tuesday conference call that he was assessing whether the affair allegations "create too much of a cloud" for his campaign to continue.
.....Grubbs seemed bothered by a statement released Monday by Cain's attorney, Lin Wood, who said a candidate's "private sexual life" is not the business of the public or the media.
The tone of Wood's remarks also dismayed Richard Land, an evangelical leader who is president of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission.".........

Just over a year ago, we here in Iowa recalled 3 supreme court justices. After the election, Vander Plaats was all over the news claiming victory. I honestly dont follow (trust) local (or other) news, so it may have been me out of the loop...but his claims seemed a bit opportunistic to me at the time...because I hadn’t heard that I was marching to his drum before the election, just after the fact.
I will make up my own mind thank you.
I get tired of these “leaders” who think they have authority to speak for us.
They don't.
