Now we have the Santorum voters who are bound and determined to punish Gingrich for his past infidelities and maintain the purity of their vote.

That is way too strong a generalization. You can check my past posts, and not only do I NOT attack Newt, but I don't even tell him to quit, and I also tell other Santorum supporters to support whoever in their state is best situated to beat Romney.

I will even go on the record to say, as a Catholic, his two annulments seem legit (#1 predator high school teacher, #2 divorcee) on the surface. The cheating is not OK, but I am willing to consider it old news, and not of primary importance except as to how it affects his electibility.

Blackelk shares this approach, as do too many other Santorum supporters who are more concerned with beating Romney than with trashing Newt to describe us as a whole in those words.

I was not addressing you Doc, or any other individual Freeper. I was talking about the perceived Evangelical Vote that is carrying Santorum ahead of Gingrich. I don't follow who on here is supporting which candidate. I want the most conservative candidate available whom I think has the ability to defeat - The Won.

You're Freepers! We're already freaks of nature. I appreciate your tack on this and have no problem with you supporting Santorum for whatever reason you choose to do so. I DO have a problem with what I consider to be unsophisticated voters not being wise as to the effects of their votes and their lack of discernment, IMHO, regarding Gingrich.

1. This is not the time for an un-tested national candidate to go to war with as our leader. 2. I don't support Romney because, again IMHO, there is no evidence that he is a Conservative. 3. I support Gingrich because I find him to be the most capable of defeating Obama in the general election and making the most progress against the behemoth of entrenched media/Govt. alliance.

TS
