I also reject your implied premise that Newt isn't "steady". He's a lot steadier than the flip-flopping Mitt, steadier than the mis-emotional Santo, and a whole lot steadier than Uncle Crazy. He's also a real statesman, which is a level that none of the others can hope to attain.
If we need a person who’s been a pure saint since childhood, we’ll find - no one!
