Look at it from a conservative/tea-partier perspective:
Romney is flawed. RomneyCare and dull in a debate.
Perry is flawed. Immigration and Gardasil stances, and has done lousy in debates.
Christy is flawed. Soft on immigration, believer in global warming, and has drug himself into a sharia law controversy. Who knows how he’ll do in a debate.
If you’re going to support a flawed candidate, why not support someone that (1) has been the most impressive in the debates, and (2) at least in the past has been willing to go the distance pushing conservative issues. That would be Newt.
In the nobody’s perfect/everyone’s flawed race of these 4, Newt kind of stands out as the best choice.
That would be Herman Cain, NOT NEWT! Have you forgotten the advertisement NEWT did with PELOUSY agreeing with Man Made Global Warming!!!??? I haven’t.

And don’t forget to add that Christie is not going to get the primary vote of anyone who belongs to the NRA/GOA and pays any attention whatsoever.
