That’s the way I see it also. And while I would love to see a staunch social conservative in the White House I’m not so sure a majority of this nation would go for that. Also his weak fiscal history is problematic. His willingness to encourage pork is worrisome and His votes for increased spending eliminates him as a strong fiscal conservative.
With those issues in mind I believe that Newt is a more attractive candidate for a larger portion of the population even with his personal history. Most people are going to realize that they would not be able to survive an intense search of their past and tend to put those issues in the background. All in all I believe that Newt would set a trend of bringing us back from the brink.
With all of that in mind I believe it would be wise to rally around Newt and coalesce the anti Romney vote.
So rather then vote for the man that you believe to be the strongest conservative, you’d rather settle for Newt in the hopes that he’s more appealing to independents?
I’ve got a newsflash for you. Newt is radioactive among Independents.
