CW: “Who is your candidate?”

I don’t have a particular candidate right now, but several are acceptable. Bachmann or Cain are fine. Perry seems OK but doesn’t thrill me. I’d like to see Palin in the race, but she’s starting to irritate me with the “is she in or is she out” crap.

See if this will help settle when tort reform was started

If Perry is running on the issue of he started it - then you should be fully aware that he is only a politican - part of our present problem - he is no reformer. He doubled the size of government, but our population did not double. He grabbed land for a toll road - he sold to a spanish company.

Perry has never said this was HIS.

He says things like, “Here in TX we...”

This issue has been around for a long time.

I remember billboards around Houston about lawsuit abuse.

I’ve had an attorney ask a jury pool I was in during voir dier if we’d seen lawsuit abuse signs.

Well we sure has hell did, and we LOVED them.

There’s a lot of credit to go around — and a LOT of it goes to Rick Perry.

I respect your views on many topics - on Perry you are a little unenlightened. To say that there is plenty of credit is like saying the guy who picked the paint color on the golden gate bridge was as important as the man who designed it or the manager that ran the crews. Perry picks paint colors - he is no conservative he is a politician saying what people want to hear.
