Yes, any time a governor writes an executive order forcing all 12-year-old girls in the state to be vaccinated for HPV, he’s got skeletons in his closet. You can read more about it here: http://bit.ly/bdwYP4

Yeah, the Gardasil thing isn't a deal breaker. This has been well debated and in the public eye forever and is not a skeleton for him to be worried about. Obviously many people opposed it, but it's nothing new that could derail a campaign. I am more talking about affairs, out of wedlock kids, past drug issues, etc, stuff like that.

It just seems like Perry has such a perfect setup to run, but something seems to be making him hesitate and hold back. I just wonder if that is some issue in his past that could destroy his campaign.

That certainly appears to be the case. Personally, I put them down all the time. Paul won 25 straw polls prior to the 2008 primary. Romney won 23. McCain won 5. They’re completely irrelevant to the outcome of the campaign.

we just don't have a current declared candidate who would excite the on-the-fence voters.

I agree with everything you posted and especially the part I just highlighted.

The on the fence voter, IOW, the idiots who only pay attention when emotions are high and times are tough....the ones who can be swayed and have no principles or knoweledge of history and honor of the Founders.

Obama was the perfect pick for the culmination of decades of socialist takeover...he has it all.....he's the one (Their Mesiah)

In a world of common sense, this next election should be a no brainer but unfortunately, there is no common sense anymore.....Donald Duck should be able to walk away with this, hopefully he will.
