Then how about Newt Gingrich?
Newt is an intellegent man with the sterling ability to voice with clarity the PRINCIPALS Conservatives believe in...
Newt's personal character and ethics, unfortunately didn't meet the same high levels of accomplishment.
Of course - this is just one old man's opinion....who reached this age by careful assessment of men.
I learned very early in life the necessity of "measuring" men with care --- mistakes would have cost lives.
