I think it's mostly the Palin crowd...

I'm a big fan of Palin, but with Perry in the race, I don't believe she's running. Also, and from what I've read, Palin has been highly supportive of Perry.

but there's a whole different group of people who are getting pretty nasty about it.

This is what I don't understand. Perry just entered the race and these same people claim they only want to vet the candidate and that there's nothing wrong with debating the pros and cons. Can't argue with that except that the vitriol from these same folks belies their claims that this is all about debate and objective vetting. It isn't, and you're right about there being something more. People are going to do what they're going to do but, in my opinion, it makes anything they say worthy of suspicion and that only makes the truth all that harder to find.

The end result is that any Perry thread posted will be negative or dominated by these same folks. And who wants to put up with that crap?

I want to win in 2012 and I want to do it with the most conservative candidate possible, but I also want someone who can defeat the Marxist with a $1 billion war chest. Getting caught up in defunct highway projects, the dispensing of vaccines, Bildabetterburger, hair styles and one court appointee is exactly what the liberals would like us to do. I'm far too serious about taking our country back from those intent on destroying it to get wound up in a bunch of BS like that. It's good to know that there are others who see it the same way.

Thanks for the post, Mase.

Many of us share in your wanting to win this country back from the boy Marxist and his progressive minions.

I too feel Gov. Perry has the best chance to accomplish just that but, it will take a concerted effort from ALL Conservative voters and then some.

I don't know what's happening. Some jackass freeper went off and called me a liberal and all sorts of names for giving Perry the benefit of the doubt and for calling this person on that out of context "open borders" quote.

He claims all sorts of people from Texas are giving him the inside dope, and that I'm an idiot for even contemplating support for him.

Maybe these people legitimately do think Perry is pro-illegal immigration and a big government liberal, I don't know. He's a politician for sure, but nothing like what's being parroted around here.
