#15 and #16 are great posts. Thanks monkapotamus and narses

Here is what a zogby poll learned on 11/30 from likely GOP primary voters:

We purposely wanted to learn how GOP voters perceived Romney’s commitment to “core beliefs” and asked this question about him, Gingrich, Herman Cain and Ron Paul:

Do you agree or disagree that the candidate “lacks core beliefs and will say whatever he believes may get him elected.”

      61% percent agreed that description applied to Romney, while
      24% said that of Gingrich
      (Cain 20% and Paul 8%.)

Do you agree or disagree that the candidate “lacks core beliefs and will say whatever he believes may get him elected.”

Yup - I’d agree with this, kinda the defintion of “politics” - unfortunately.

That we’re down to Gingrich or Romney v. the Worst President of America Ever is what really disgusts me. I don’t have any passion for either candidate. What I fear most is a 2nd Obama term. Gingrich won’t be a good candidate and an even less effective executive if he does win. His history of running things poorly.

On the Contract with America, Newt was an outsider with a fingertip feel for the American electorate and conservative politics. He’s since lost that and every time he’s put his finger to the wind he’s gotten it wrong. Now he wants to be POTUS... so does every Senator. He’s not exciting at all.
