Aspen, with boots on the ground in my home state, I think that's hardly the reason. I will say - and in the interest of not igniting a powder-keg on here - that I think Romney's problems were part lack of charisma (see the Thursday night debate gaffe on his taxes - and do note it's not that's he's rich or is currently taxed at 15% as the issue, but that it appears he potentially has something to hide) and a perhaps to a larger degree, issues with aspects of the current status quo. It's not just the news media, but it's a constant issue that Gingrich has raised that's hitting politically-uncorrect traction.
Most of the criticisms I heard were "Obama-lite" as opposed to "that Mormon."
The Republican field is not offering what people want. I think tonight's vote was a total repudiation of Romney more than necessarily a vote for Gingrich
Apparently Romney's Mormonism is bothering Christians in South Carolina - they chose a hypocritical, serial cheater over him. 40% to Romney's 28%
The President is to be a leader and Gingrich has shown the best leaderlike qualities during this campaign.
Did you like the result of the 1994 Republican Congress? If so, Newt is your man.
Point?
An interesting topic.
Prophetically speaking, we should know that the a/c shall come to power in ~spring 2015~.
obama has gone to war against Catholic Church and abortion/contrception
President Obama’s health chief decreed Friday that the Catholic Church must provide its employees with health insurance coverage for contraception, its moral stance against birth control be damned.
Wrong, wrong, high-handedly, obtusely wrong.
Franklin Graham: Romney's Mormonism Doesn't Bother Me
Evangelical minster Franklin Graham said voters should look past a candidate’s personal religion when considering whom they should support for office. Graham offered his advice in a recent interview with The Christian Broadcasting Network when asked if Christians could vote for someone who is a Mormon.
Yes, the fact that Mitt Romney is a Mormon doesn’t bother me at all,” Graham told CBN.
Two candidates seeking the GOP nomination for president who are Mormons are Romney and Jon Huntsman. They are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Graham said voters should select a candidate who is most qualified, beyond anything else.
“You can have the nicest guy and he can be a Christian and just wonderful but have absolutely no clue as to how to run a country, you don’t want that … Mitt Romney is a very capable fellow, I know him. I know Newt Gingrich, another capable person; Michele Bachmann, a very capable lady; Rick Santorum, I like a lot, very gifted guy, a very sharp person and so there are some good candidates out there.”
Graham’s primary concern about the 2012 election is that he feels the country is heading in the wrong direction, saying the next election is “the most critical election of my lifetime.”
The evangelist sees the direction of the country as the number one priority for the next president.
“Our country is heading on the wrong course,” said Graham. “There are millions and millions of people out there that are out of work and there are people out there now that have been out of work so long they are not even looking for work because they are so discouraged.”
Praying for our leaders and our country is what Graham suggested of Christians, saying that irrespective of political party, the country needs elected officials “who will put God’s standards above everything else and who will take us back to the God of our fathers.”
“[O]ur country is going in the wrong direction and we need to make a change.”
