Rick is very conservative on social issues. That said---when making a decision, for me, it is far more than just the social issues.On Rush's radio show I heard played a lot of recordings of Rick speaking on the social issues that loom so importantly in the mind's of conservatives.
Listening to him speak, is there any wonder that the conservatives have clearly abandoned Mitt in favor of Rick?
The p***ion in Rick's voice, the heartfelt tone that he can speak to this topic with,,,,there simply is no one else in this election who can come close to Rick's testimony.
I don't know the future, I don't know who will lead the Republican ticket.
But I do know that Rick brings a voice to the issues that I care about.
Long ago in this topic I suggested a little prediction that once Newt were to begin to fade in the polling numbers that the conservatives would likely all gather around Rick, and this seems to now be happening as we finally pick the guy we want to lead the ticket.
Mitt Romney to me will not only support social issues, but will help this economy get back on track. Right now I am taking an international economics cl***. If we are slaved economically, then social issues will go the way side as well. We can see this already happening.
