Frankly, I'm fed up with the stupidity and childishness of many conservatives. When candidates come along who are social and fiscally conservative, they are ignored or ridiculed ("sounds like my bitchy ex-wife;" "he's not getting traction, so I'll wait"). Instead, many follow dummies like Perry, soporific old fogies like Fred Thompson, manipulative old pols like Newt, neo-Huckabees like Santorum, etc.
