Newt is the last conservative standing, so I am rebelling with him. I’m sorry he is not perfect, but he is a darn sight beeter than either Romney or Obama.”

We're on the same page. I think Santorum had a significantly better chance than Gingrich, and said so repeatedly.

He's not running. Gingrich is. So let's back Gingrich.

BTW, here are Santorum’s reasons for dropping out — he was running out of money and didn't want to go into debt. As conservatives, I think we need to respect that. Some businessmen are willing to take on debt to revive a business in trouble. Some will close the doors. I can respect both decisions.

I live and work in an Army community outside Fort Leonard Wood. I hear foul language on a fairly regular basis. I won't use that language, and I'll sometimes tell people to “zip it” when in public around women and kids, but I won't tell people how to talk in their own house.
