Yes, Rick comes across meek. But meekness is not weakness. Moral fortitude comes in all packages. Newt is supposed to be a reformed man, and a great debator and leader. Ron Paul is honest and what you see is what you get. Frankly, any of the three (Rick, Newt or Ron) would make a fine president.
I realize that social conservatives want to vote for one of their own. But when it comes time for the general election presidential debates, I want Gingrich up on stage eviscerating Obama.
Santorum is not meek at all. If you’d bother to listen to any of his campaign speeches in recent days, you’d know that.
