The Republican Nomination For President: The Race For The Race For The White House

Or it could simply be a matter of distaste. In any event, Gingrich does not have a strong favorably rating with women and since they vote, the reason don't really matter.

a preference for people who are honest and respectful in their relationships with others.

I think I'd feel somewhat differently about it if either of his earlier wives had indicated that they were in open relationships at the times the relationships with subsequent women started.

I don't think religious people are the only ones who value honesty and respect.

I agree.

It only matters if the selfsame ladies are campaigning to undermine Christian educational systems in the sense that it gives us an idea of what their ideas are worth.

What does Christianity have to do with the discussion?

That evolutionary contingencies actually and actively promote the behaviour being referred to here and only religious principles can sometimes, often only partially, stand in opposition.

What in hell is that supposed to mean?

It means he's cut off

i guess he is saying only religious people have the standards being discussed here most of the time. I think he is wrong but it really don't matter anyway. all that matters in this case of Gingrich who is running for president is that he don't have a strong support among women voters.

spendi talks about sex and religion as if both are interchangeable support of each. He doesn't understand the psyche of women who thinks people like Newt are the scum of the earth - who trades in women like many trade in their shoes.

ahh conflating Christianity and religion and then suggesting that belief in evolution cannot co-exist with Christianity

not your best effort

Ah, but my cousin's husband is very enthused about Romney, sent me a story about his taking all the Bain higher ups with him back to (where? New York?) where an employee's daughters had gone miss on, I think, a vacation, to search for the daughters. Showing thus his very good heart. Can't check the story now since I deleted it, as is my way.

Point is, I'm not counting chicks before the hatching.

Back to the topic of the thread for a moment (while wondering what some of the latest posts have to do with the topic. Could you explain that to us, Spendi?)
Turnout in Nevada was 33,000 vs 44,000 in 2008 - down 25%.
Coming up tomorrow are caucuses in Minnesota and Colorado and a primary in Missouri. Gingrich failed to qualify to be on the ballot in Missouri. All are non-binding meaning that no delegates will be awarded.
It still is meaningful in that (1) the turnout will continue to be interesting; (2) how people eligible to participate who describe themselves as Independents will be significant and (3) after tomorrow there will be a lull in further races until the end of February.

The corollary of which is that Christianity is woman friendly. As is obvious to anyone who puts aside their selfish tendencies and thinks about it a bit.

That women, deep down, are in favour of Christian sexual morality as they damn well ought to be considering the manifold benefits it has brought them despite it being a bumpy road getting there.

You wrote,

You really don't understand Christian history, do you? ROFL

I fully understand the psyche of women who think Gingrich is scum. If I was Mrs J. Doe I would entirely agree.

The hottie babes in Media might think differently for a few short years but what percentage of an electorate are they no matter how up-front they are on Fox.

In my view not one sensible woman would vote for Gingrich.

Didn't you know the freedom of women? They were free to remain silent and be seen.

Just as you are rl to spout and be taken no notice of.

What an insult to women to think they have been seen and not heard just because you read it in a propaganda asswipe.

Does it comfort you?

Is this your new name for the bible? Let me guess you have a toilet paper roll of the bible.

Virginia Update
Bob McDonnell is the Republican governor of Virginia. He is half way through his four year term and under the law can not run for reelection.
I didn't vote for him but he strikes me as a decent enough guy, I think.
He supported Rick Perry early on but is now on the Mitt Romney bandwagon. He has an aspiration of being the choice for Vice President under Romney.
He now has a big problem. Last November, control of the VA House of Delegates was turned over to Republicans and the state Senate ended up in a tie.
The Lt Gov (who aspires to be the next Gov) gets to break ties.
Suddenly, there is a surge of legislation coming up that will likely pass and be handed to McDonnell, including:
> Repeal of the one handgun purchase per month restriction (VA got a reputation for having guns show up at crime scenes up and down the east coast);
> Repeal of rules requiring gun purchasers at gun shows from having to go through back ground checks;
> Allowing people to carry guns without concealed gun permits including
> On college campuses. The schools are adamantly opposed to the idea but some advocates threaten to cut off funding;
> Drug testing for those receiving state unemployment benefits;
> Anti-abortion restrictions;
> Opposing gay rights.
And the list goes on. McDonnell was able to stay above the fray because the legislators killed those things off, but now they are likely to reach his desk.

By the way, the bill to allow hunting on Sunday's on private land during hunting season looks like it will be defeated. I mentioned that issue before.

scary ****...
