GRP: So it is, you waver from this path, display any individuality from strict variance in compliance, you, as a candidate are just plain out of the game? Is this what all this hard-core Tea Party noise is about an all-out mandate to save "Reaganism"? Is that why we in the Republican Party are being presented with candidates that cause us to ask..."Is this the best we can do?"..."Newt Gingrich for God's sake?"... Have we not learned a damned thing?
