Santorum is decidedly the most dedicated Christian of the three: pro-family, pro-life, and pro-morality. But he is a Catholic, and it depends whether the Evangelicals are willing to recognize what he stands for.
Newt is also Catholic, now. But, I must say, not my kind of Catholic. I cannot judge his private life, but I will say that he does not strike me as having a firm moral foundation for public life.
Perry says he is a good Evangelical. I rather doubt it, from what I have seen. But he could suck votes away from the other Rick.
I think Santorum is the best of the bunch, unless Palin returns. But I don’t know if he has the polical strength necessary. Still, you can trust him, and I don’t trust any of the other current contenders.
Mark Levin said that if he had to vote for someone in a Virginia primary today, the home of his “bunker”, it would be Bachmann or Santorum. And, he based that on solely on “character” or what someone will do (and it will happen) when the 2 AM call comes in. That’s good enough for me. A man with 7 kids has to have some strong compass or he’d go raving mad! Finally, I think Rick is doubling down in Iowa.
I'm evangelical, and every evangelical I've spoken to about him likes him and recognizes his Christianity. That will not be an issue. :-)
