In my view, Mr. Gingrich failed to fulfill the fundamentals of conservatism.
That’s the problem. Nobody is conservative enough to meet everyone’s definition of conservative. If the candidate looks to be conservative in office, I’ve come to disregard what they do outside office. And once I’ve settled on a candidate I resolve to ignore shit that does not matter.
My support for Cruz or Trump is committed no matter what the opposition, that is to say the media, digs up on them. I’m no longer looking for perfection. At least, that’s the plan.
