I think you're underestimating where the middle is on this and also where conservatives are on this.
Obama has lost much of the middle which is why he keeps losing in polls against an unknown republican. The other thing is that all of Newt's laundry is already out there. Odd as it seems, thats a plus in today's politics.
lastly, no one is going to let social matters get in the way of economic ones.
Thats why you hear virtually nothing about social values, abortion, etc. in this economic climate, no one gives a fuck about them.
