No problem. I’m stubborn to the core when I get an issue I’m wrestling with. I admit it.
And even tho I’m not 100% sure, there’s enough negatives that I am (now) convinced about re: Newt, thanks to the responses tonite, to make me about 75% convinced that he’s a no-go as far as being OOU (one of us).
There’s nothing that says you have to be in lock step with anyone on Newt or any other politician. We all have reasons for following one or another. And we all have personal likes and dislikes. The problem is when an individual shows a propensity for bipartisanship, openly voting for liberal political policies, voicing support for someone like Obama (as McCain did in support of his presidency), that kind of thing.
And it’s not the idea that it happens once, or a Senator or whoever votes to allow something out of committee with the intention of allowing his colleagues to vote it down en masse on the floor. It’s the repeated fascination with the liberal agenda displayed time and time again. Newt has frankly crossed the line for many of us. But, we all draw our lines ourselves. It’s not a cut and dried agenda.
