South Carolina needs 1 conservative to defend Pro-Life & Marriage. Gingrich is best anti-Romney

South Carolina needs to vote for 1 conservative to defend Pro-Life & Traditional Marriage. Gingrich is best anti-Romney, since he has the financial backing to participate in all of the future primaries, such as Florida, Georgia, North Carolina. Santorum is a weak candidate with marginal speaking skills. Perry has not caught on. Consider consolidating your voting around the best, most intelligent, most skillful, most articulate Conservative-Newt Gingrich. As Newt said yesterday, moderates such as Romney do not do well in debates, because they do not have CORE-CONSERVATIVE beliefs, so when it comes to a debate, they stutter and are not good in answers debate questions. Notice how Romney has flip-flopped over the years on issues. He was trying to tailor answers to questions to get the most votes for occasion. Also, another good point is that Romney tends to shy away from discussing cultural, religious issues, since he does not want to venture too close to the beliefs of the Mormon religion. Another good point is that many of Romney's positions on taxation of the rich, payroll tax, saving General Motors, captial gains tax, etc. are very close to Barack Obama's positions. This closeness of positions will make it more difficult for Romney to communicate a sharp, clear difference with Obama in a debate.

It’s funny that the best thing Newt could do to defeat Romney is to drop out of the race and support someone else, but he’s too egotistical to do that.

Why do you think it is funny our best shot at the White House should bow out?

Ginrich is just as bad as Romney; two peas in a pod. He is for the individual mandate, dissed the Ryan plan, he supported Bushes prescription drug urging all republicans to vote for it. How much more big government than that can you get? His second amendment record would make the Brady camp proud.

I disagree 100% Newt is the only chance we have.

I admit it isn’t good , but Santorum is weak, Paul is crazy, and Perry keeps stepping on his Johnson.

Do you think Newt defending marriage is a sound strategy?

What not to do?
Otherwise, I go back and forth between RS and NG and then I get a headache.

Christians firmly believe in repentence, reconciliation. Gingrich is repentent. Remember, the first person to see Jesus after the Resurrection was Mary Magdelene, a repentent sinner.

"Paul is crazy"

Paul is not crazy and has more support then any other candidate except Romney.

Oh, please, half the Evangelicals I know here in Florida are on their 3rd marriage or at least their 2nd. But that doesn’t invalidate the principle of one man and one woman.

Gingrich has already come out in support of the traditional defnition of marriage, and he has done so very well, not even getting derailed by the gays who show up.

But aside from that, unless you yourself are planning on marrying Gingrich one of these days, there’s a whole lot of other issues that you should consider, such as the candidate’s policies on big government, taxes, SOPA, healthcare, oil drilling, defense...Gingrich has good policies for all of these and he can defend them.

Paul does not have support in the South and South Carolina will prove it. His fortress America messages does go over too well in the Southern states. Too many military bases and folks believe in America, John Wayne and apple pie. His support for legalization of all drugs and prostitution are also a game killer for him. Rupaul goes over well in liberal states that mock the teachings of Jesus Christ. All these states are won by democrats every election.

Rupaul was one of the few republicans to side with the liberal democrats to allow sodomites (with all the diseases they are prone to carry), to openly serve in the Armed Forces. And you know I am sick and tired of Rupaul referring to himself as a conservative. He might be conservative on fiscal matters, but he’s as liberal as any liberal democrat on most social issues. He claims he’s pro-life, but says leave it up the states to decide. Well if a state decides it’s OK to murder an unborn child it’s OK with Rupaul. The states have spoken.

Absolutely. Let anyone without sin cast the first stone.

If it were not for the forgiveness of Christ, I myself would be lying in a gutter somewhere, undoubtedly.

Forgiveness, repentence ...very human concepts for a very HUMAN candidate. But the best we have.
