So, Mr. Prognosticator...

How do you rate tomorrow’s results?

Candidate by Candidate?

Lay it out for us. So we don’t have any surprises.

Did I welcome you to FR last month?

If I didn’t, forgive me.

Who did you support before Cain?

Now you’re for ......Gingrich? Santorum? Bachmann?

But not Perry.

Interesting.

Rick Santorum ... can he get his own state to vote for him for president? They didn’t want him for senator.

Let’s hope Santorum (the other Rick) and Michele drop out.

Perry is not dropping out. He said so on Fox this morning.

I don’t know what’s gonna happen with Gingrich. I hope he’s able to stay in, he’s my second choice.

Huntsman is not a factor.

I’ll be so glad when I never have to hear the word Iowa again.

That will be four years from now or maybe eight.

Your post is stupid but your tag line is really stupid.

Nobody got on the Virginia ballot except two losers.

Rick Perry was the only one with the guts to do anything about it while all the rest stood around waiting.

Rick Perry took on politico when they wrote a lying, heresay article about him.

Yes, that was an impressive list of people supporting Rick Perry, was it not?

People who know him really like him.

I wouldn’t bother with the Perry fangirls. They’re either infatuated with him, on the Perry campaign’s payroll, or both. They’ll quiet down after he finishes 6th in IA and 7th in NH. He is now irrelevant.

So I saw that and since you didn’t respond to my post about $$’s, I thought you might have wanted to, uhmmm...back off of it or change it.

So what is it? Do you wanna put money on Perry dropping out Wed., or just wanna prognosticate?

Amen, re Perry haters. Just when we think they are beaten to a pulp, they read a poll saying Ricky Santorum is getting some play in Iowa and they rise from the grave like zombies to come to Perry threads and ANNOY THE HELL OUT OF US, while basically spouting lies and misinformation.

trumandogz tag line says it all about his smarts.

LOL!

So if Perry comes in > 10% you’ll come on FR with just as loud a Mea Culpa?

Or do you just disappear or pretend that’s not what you meant?

You’re funny!

Rick Perry consults with good people and has good people supporting him. Steve Forbes is one. John Bolton another (although Bolton hasn’t endorsed him yet that I know of)

Assuming that the polls are right--from the standpoint that the top 5 or 6 candidates are less than 15 to 20 points apart and there's no breakaway winner--I don't see anyone dropping out on Wednesday. Perry said today (paraphrasing) that Iowa is mile one in a marathon, we'll see who is still running at mile 21, he has run a marathon before and expects to finish this one.

I think that Florida will be the big hurdle for most candidates.

“Are you really afraid that Perry will get the nom or something?’

No, that would be a real shocker, almost as shocking as if the Indianapolis Colts were to win Super Bowl XLVI.

I just want to save the Texas Taxpayers the $400,000.00 per month it is costing us to keep him on the campaign trail.

You’re forgiven.

Here’s my PERSONAL choices of the 10 still in after Cain and Palin kinda chickened out (Sorry but you did, Herman & Sarah).

My ranking of the best of who’s remaining..

1. Newt

Gingrich-led Republicans….the result:

* Four consecutive balanced budgets
* Over $400 billion of debt paid off
* Bipartisan welfare reform
* 11 million new jobs
* Unemployment falling to under 4%.

Newt believes that life begins at conception. That is why he has a 99 percent prolife record.

“Gingrich Reaffirms His Belief in the Sanctity of all Human Life, Born and Unborn

“Atlanta, GA – (12/3) – In advance of this evenings forum hosted by Mike Huckabee, Newt 2012 released the following statement today from Newt Gingrich regarding his belief in the sanctity of all human life, born and unborn.

“As I have stated many times throughout the course of my public life, I believe that human life begins at conception. I believe that every unborn life is precious, no matter how conceived. I also believe that we should work for the day when there will be no abortions for any reason, and that every unborn child will be welcomed into life and protected by law.”

Jim Robinson: “Newt: Pro-life Reaganite, led the Republican Revolution, took the congressional majority from the Democrats who had held it for 40 years; and even with a democrat president: cut taxes, cut spending, cut the national deficit, cut welfare, balanced the federal budget four years running, cut regulations, reduced unemployment, blocked socialized healthcare (HillaryCare) and encouraged the Reagan economy to flourish throughout his term and beyond. Not a bad conservative record at all. We can use some of this now!!”

2. Santorum the always sunny conservative in PA
3. Bachmann the true conservative titanium spined woman
4. Perry the conservative gov from the most conservative large state
5. Cain the still on the ballots quitter AND NEWT ENDORSER (I pray)
6. Johnson the pot smoking ex-gov of the Land of Enchantment (NM)
7. Huntsman the good (of the two) Mormon
8. Karger the flaming gay
9. Paul the racist and jew hater
10. Willard the dem $50 baby killer

Do I have cult-like devotion to one particular politician (who face it are all ONLY one notch ABOVE used car salesmen in their profession)? Hell no, mam.

“Rick Perry was the only one with the guts to do anything about it while all the rest stood around waiting.”

Interestingly, no one that supports Perry’s lawsuit against Virginia and the Virginia Republican Party can cite how the Virginia rules violate the Constitution.

I agree. why should anyone drop out after Iowa? It’s basically inconsequential in the scheme of things. It means something to Perry because it would get his name out there.

South Carolina means a lot more.

There is someone on this thread (not worthy of a ping) who thinks the Austin American Statesman is a font of all wisdom.

I would pay a small sum if he would shut up and go away.

Why do people get such a kick out of being a horse’s butt?

And it’s also funny how someone who wrote a book on 10th amendment rights and federalism sues the state of Virginia in federal court just because he didn’t make the ballot. Just another in a long string of contradictions by La Raza Ricky.

None of us Perry supporters are “girls”.

And some of us Perry supporters are men.

Next?

More crystal ball gazing?

More tarot card readings?

More Ouigi boards?

More inaccurate statements?

More childish insults?
