It isn't hard to be the conservative. Rudy, Romney, and McCaine aren't. Gilmore may or may not be running anything. Newt keep evolving and has a baggage train a mile long. Ron Paul lives in an imaginary world without Islamists, and Tancredo has serious baggage regarding Nam.
I'm going to see Newt tonight, so I may come back a Newt fanatic. I used to intern for him before that word became dirty.
