Unless you’re a state delegate at the convention, you won’t get a vote.

Excellent! Thanks for the link!

I voted for Newt in both, but only because I don't want Sarah to feel forced into anything that she doesn't really want. I want her to want it, but I don't want her to feel any obligation as long as she is fearful that something might happen to her family. If that makes any sense.

Do you think U.S. voters would vote for a man whose wife cheated on him? It may not be fair, but there it is.

For me hands down for Newt in the Primary and if a brokered convention. Either or.

None other can take on Obama as Newt can...none other can take the helm of this nation and move this ship back on course....none other has the "tools" to know 'how' to do that.....None other has the history of accomplishment for concervatism as Newt...none other has the will nor the understanding of what needs to be done and with a solid plan in place to do just that...none. So it's a no brainer.

Go Newt Go!!!!!!!!!

Daniels was able to get elected in Indiana.

Yes, he can manage it because he's a great example of a faithful husband/Dad.
