According to Republican primary voters who voted for Gingrich (almost half of them Evangelicals), the most important quality of their candidate is his ability to defeat Obama (51%) and BY FAR the LEAST important quality is his moral character (6%).[1]
What do these statistics tell us about the "moral" character of Evangelical voters? Newt is one of the most vile, petty, resentful, hypocritical, sleazy, ignorant persons ever to walk on the face of the earth. How could he possibly have won South Carolina?

We aren't voting for pastor.
"We are fooling ourselves if we imagine that we can ever make the authentic Gospel popular......it is too simple in an age of rationalism; too narrow in an age of pluralism; too humiliating in an age of self-confidence; too demanding in an age of permissiveness; and too unpatriotic in an age of blind nationalism." Rev. John R.W. Stott, CBE
