Well, it looks like Romney wins Florida. Hopefully, it's not "game over," although I have to say, I prefer Romney over Gingrich. It's a matter of temperment. Plus, I think Romney will make a better decision when it comes to a running mate - which I think will be the deciding factor.
The best conservative candidate is Rick Santorum, but things are just not going his way. So, if I have to choose between Romney and Gingrich, I will go with Romney. That's just my take. If I thought the general election was going to be won by debates, I might go with Gingrich, but I don't think debates will even be a slight factor in the general election. It's going to be a showdown based on vision, based on whether we still view America as an "exceptional" nation or not. Romney does present America as an "exceptional" nation, and he does it elegantly.
So while my ideology still aligns with Rick Santorum, my practical vote would be for Romney, if he becomes the nominee. If Gingrich wins the nomination, I'd have to rethink everything.
