I posted yesterday that FR needs an “Angst Monitor” to add to the “BS Meter!”

I don't know if Rick can beat Obama ...it will depend on how he matures between now and the election and whether his “right to life” stance will be too rigid to gain enough of the moderate vote.

Newt is the venerable warrior who has the best experience and talent to beat Obama and the Dem Machine and the vision required to get this Republic out of the mess we are in. That said, as we all know, he has a lot of baggage and high “negatives.”

Romney will depress the base and will have great difficulty arguing against Obamcare given his historic authorship of Romneycare ...and then there is the question of whether he would really abolish Obamacare if he should be elected.

Given all of the above; I am still backing Newt; but, will accept Rick if he wins the nomination and picks a decent Conservative for VeeP.

Regards,

-Geoff

Well, here is an interesting article:

http://campaign2012.washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/beltway-confidential/6-10-catholics-disapprove-obama/374661

If Catholics stay firmly out of obama’s camp, Santorum - maybe even Gingrich? - might have a shot....

The majority of Catholics voted obama last time....so I am skeptical. But obama may have gone too far in his recent actions.
