Re: Newt Gingrich: CPAC 2011
Ron Paul has as much chance winning the Republican nomination as I do. He is a nut. He many times wins the straw polls of extremists. I like most of Newt's positions and he is a brilliant man. However he has major character flaws.
I might be willing to overlook Newt's moral issues if he were running for a lessor office and there were no better candiates but for the highest office in the land I do not want a man who cheated on two successive wives to end up with the one he has now (serving the first one with divorce papers while she was in chemo treatment for cancer no less).
The funny thing is I don't think Newt would approve of anybody with his character record being elected to office other than himself. He would be tearing up a Democrat canidate who had done what he has done as unfit to be President.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
