Bachmann has done no ads, that I have seen. Of course, I don’t live in Iowa. Too bad she didn’t have more money. Governors get the cash.

People in other States that do not understand the way Texas works. Always judge based on personal experience.

Houston expects a 14% jump in employment in 2012. Can Obama claim that for the U.S.?

I guess you have to live here to experience it.

No he doesn’t. Television speaks in spoon fed sound bites for the bubba’s.

frankly, I’m do not care about Iowa anymore. I came upon several articles that had varying details of Karen Santorum having a medically induced miscarriage (aka: Abortion).

I mean com’ on, Evangelicals, smangelicals. Hypocrites (IOWA) one and all.

Why did you bring that up about Karen Santorum?

Because I am sick of hypocrites. Why is it that NOT one of the so called Pro-Life groups in Iowa have not even mentioned this. Yet Perry goes to from rape incest exception to none, and he is criticized.

Perry is the ONLY candidate that is a true conservative and has the record to prove it.

Was hoping for Palin, but the minute she declined to run I donated to Cain.

Have been keeping my powder dry since Cain's implosion.

If Santorum can finish ahead of Bachmann and Perry in Iowa, he will have my instant financial support.

Once Thompson left the race, I had no candidate in ‘08.

They lost a baby shortly after birth. “Varying details” are a tell-tale sign that the entire story may be fabricated. Bob

I’m from Scranton, Pa, and I am a conservative Christian who has never been impressed with Huckabee. He was a pretty liberal governor in a conservative state, raising taxes many times, and exploding the budget, as best I remember it. Bob

But apparently voters have no problem voting for people that are hypocrites?

Your probably right. I’m just feeling a little sensitive to life issues today.

Sorry if I offended anyone.

“Why all the negative campaigning against fellow conservatives?”

Yup, and meanwhile Romney gets a pass:

Look to Bachmann to exit stage left after Iowa. The question becomes who will she endorse.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
She will endorse the only GOP candidate she has not attacked in this race; Mitt Romney. And that’s because, as Ed Rollins said, she thinks he’s going to be the eventual nominee and she wants to be his VP.

To: Cincinatus' Wife; All

Expect to see Rick Perry start a media blitz against Rick Santorum, which, indeed, he has already begun,...
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
ROFLMAO.... You have to laugh to keep from crying. The GOP is determined to pull defeat from the jaws of victory. We’re going to so beat, bloody and break every candidate we have until the eventual nominees crawls into the General Election wounded beyond recovery. Start practicing now saying “President Obama” for the next four years folks. WE HAVE MET THE ENEMY AND HE IS US.

You’re right about it being “us.” But because so many people work from the starting point of fear and make bad choices.

Perry has a joy and a determination that would do FReepers a lot of good to emulate, instead of huddling in fear of “Obama.”
