How quickly have you conservatives wiped from your minds Gingrich's ethics troubles, his "womanizing" troubles, his loose cannon mouth? And Cain...........could you seriously contemplate HIM in proximity to the nuclear football? Well, on second thought, apparently you guys were willing to have Sarah Palin in that position, so..........................
Ethics are sort of a slippery slope aren't they? President Clinton's ethical lapses are legendary, yet he will be remembered as a successful President.

What qualities do we want to see in a President, saintliness, or competence? I'll stick with the latter, and in my mind Gingrich is about as competent as they come. Throw in the apoplexy Cain would invoke in liberals and you've got a perfect combination.
