Perplexing data from South Carolina

There has been considerable chatter about the news that Newt Gingrich captured 44% of the “Born Again or Evangelical Christian” vote (to the relatively anemic 21% each for Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney; CNN exit polling).

But I haven’t heard much about the news that Gingrich was the choice of only 6% of voters who say that “Strong Moral Character” is the “Most Important Candidate Quality.”

Draw your own conclusions.
