Personally, given the choices presented, I'd pick Gingrich and Cain. Gingrich has much greater capability and experience in manipulating the Washington "system" and Cain has some awfully good economic ideas which might find their way into legislation. I won't ask and I don't care how either of them feel on the question of pro-life or pro-choice.

VK, I fully agree with you on this. I do not expect a 'perfect' candidate - one that agrees with all my beliefs. A friend of mine, Joel Hunter of Northland Church in Orlando, said that as Christians we must look first for competency in our leaders. He has also stated that evangelicals direct too much of their attention below the waistline and too little on dealing with this nation's and the world's crushing problems such as poverty and illiteracy.
