I don’t have a good explanation for why the most conservative and most strongly Bible Belt parts of the state seem to have been the sources of his strongest support.
I guess my hat is off to Gingrich. He’s proved — and proved with a double digit margin of victory — that lots of conservative Christians in a Bible Belt state are willing to vote for a three-times-married man with multiple past adulteries. I’m not sure what that says about the future of America, but it definitely does show that Gingrich has a fighting chance at winning the Republican nomination.
A) Christians believe in the power of forgiveness and that once God has forgiven a man, to bring it up later (Marianne) and throw it in his face is about as low as whale s**t.
B)40 + percent of marriages in this nation end in divorce. Christian marriages do not have better numbers than society as a whole. IOW, we understand.
