Don’t let Perry fool you. He is an opportunist and a fake who would love to steal Tea Party votes. But he’s George Bush warmed over. He is an empty-shirt. Milquetoast. He will not take risks. He would not fight hard for the Tea Party causes. He is an Establishment Republican who would kill the Tea Party if he wins.
Just look what has happened here on Free Republic. No one has attacked Sarah Palin, Ron Paul, Michele Bachmann and the Tea Party as viciously as the Rick Perry group has. They remind me of The Left with their smear tactics and name-calling.
THE TEA PARTY MUST REJECT RICK PERRY!
.
Yeah, but...
If it comes down to Saint Rick, or the Naked Emperor, Dear Leader 0bama - I’d take a Saint Rick with a TEA Party majority in congress.
“He is an Establishment Republican”
The “establishment republicans” don’t like him. If he is one of them, why do they dislike him so much?
I consider Rick to be largely about Rick. That said, he has at least 80% of good things going for him.
If that is all I get each step of the way, I’m happy for the time. There were things Reagan did that
I disagreed with - like granting amnesty to illegals. Like trading tax increases for spending cuts
that didn’t materialize.
If it comes down to Rick or Michelle, I’d pick Rick because I think he has a better chance in the
general election. If it comes to Rick or Michelle against the marxist, I’ll pick either of them over
Obama.
I would take another George Bush over what we have now in Obama. I like Perry, I also like Palin, Perry can beat Obama, Palin most likely cannot.
ANYBODY BUT OBAMA 2012
won't happen....it will be Perry or Obama...take your choice
I certainly agree with you there. The conversation over on the Tea Party Forums are certainly on fire at this moment. From what I can see the consensus is against Perry. As it should be. If they support just another big government RINO they'll be shooting themselves in the foot. The whole grass roots Tea Party movement is about rejecting not only Democrats but people like Perry, Romney, McCain, etc.
The dead give away is the MSM calling him a “Tea Party Favorite”!
Bullshit!
