What do Christian conservatives see in Newt Gingrich?

It amazes me that right-wing Christian Republicans would vote for Newt Gingrich. We just had Herman Cain remove himself from the 2012 presidential campaign for simply being accused of adultery. Gingrich admitted to committing adultery, more than once, yet he still tops the polls.

Mr. Gingrich divorced his wife while she was in the hospital with cancer. Questions also have been raised about the money he received as a paid consultant for mortgage-lending giant Freddie Mac. Yet Mr. Gingrich is now the front-runner for the GOP presidential nomination.

The right-wingers say the Bible is the word of God, but I'm sure they must realize that the prohibition against adultery is one of the Ten Commandments. Politicians shouldn't be able to pick and choose which of the commandments they will obey and which they can ignore.
