It all seems so complicated this election.
I wanted Palin but that ship sailed.
I will vote for anyone but Romney or Paul.
Since Cain’s collapse I have taken another look at Newt...he speaks moderate but his voting record is excellent. Perhaps this is a shrewd plan to appeal to the squishy middle?
I’d have moved to Perry if not for his debate performance. But I have been mulling things over the last few days and I’ve come to the conclusion that Zero will never agree to a debate with anyone who has real debate skills. This means a debate with Newt will never happen. Zero would debate Perry though and since Perry’s debate performance expectations are nil all he would have to do to break even is not faint and fall off the stage. Anything better would constitute a win.
I’m not worried about Perry’s immigration record. This country has allowed the immigration mess to occur. If we wanted to avoid all this we should have kept liberals out of office. Now that long term illegals have kids with no ties to Mexico we have a dilemma on our hands. The only way to get rid of them all is to somehow turn them into republican voters...the democrats would have them all shot on sight.
This is a difficult election.
What a refreshingly even-handed, well articulated comment.
there are always debates between the Republican and Democrat candidates.. you can bet at least two..
I don't think he could get away with refusing the debates.
Why don’t you try voting your conscience regardless of whether or not your candidate is on the Pubbbie ticket? You might be pleasantly surprised at the result.
Don’t be steamrollered into voting for the Pubbie RINO. You might just as well vote for a demrat.
Thank you. It’s refreshing to see a post from someone who is intelligently looking at the candidates and issues.
I hope you will continue to look favorably at Perry.
His debate skills are not the greatest but his one on one interviews are super. Look at the difference between Perry’s performance on Brett Baier and that of Romney.
Perry was calm and affable and answered every question in a clear way with conviction. Perry has personal charm lacking in some of the others. He was great on Jay Leno the other night and he is great connecting with the people.
By the way, if Perry is paying me, I haven’t received my checks yet.
I’m with you. Newt’s got great ideas but there’s just something about him that doesn’t sit right. I really wanted Cain to stay in. But now my choices are Perry or Newt, I guess. More enthusiastic about Perry. Still, maybe I’m a glutton for punishment because I always seem to want the one down in the polls.
