Republican elites who really want Huntsman are worried. No one else.

[MNJohnnie]

I see the Romney bots in the GOP Establishment are out following Romney campaign SOP. They go out and trash talk the opposition for Romney while he postures as “above the fray”.

[shield]

That’s exactly who he’ll appeal to...even the GOP elite are scared of him...wonder why?

[PapaNew]

I’ve been on vacation - has Perry passed Romney as the frontrunner?

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

Republicans Establishment Worried GOP Front-Runner Rick Perry Won't Appeal To Independent Voters

Fixed the headline.

[Diogenesis]

Is RomneyCARE worried?

Sending out his minions, again?

NO RINOs.

NO ROMNEYCare

NO OBAMACare

[bgill]

He doesn’t appeal to this Republican.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

I’m really sick and tired of all the hand-wringing going on about the so-called independent and moderate voters. If they can’t bring themselves to vote for the GOP candidate, then they’ll probably stay home on election day. The GOP should just ignore them and stick with its Conservative base instead of repeatedly trying to screw it over.

The usual suspects are out trying to derail Perry.

[presently no screen name]

“You can’t be calling Bernanke a traitor and you can’t be questioning whether or not Barack Obama loves America, that type of thing,” Rep. Peter King (R-NY),...

So Independents object to hearing truth? Are they the 'head in the sand' voter? He sure paints a fragile picture on what independents are like. The GOP establishment will not speak about against Barry and all his tactics bringing down America because they are fearful of not being liked. Patriots they are NOT! You will never be king, King - will always be known as a wuss.

[Venturer]

The GOP leadership is afraid Perry might knock off their RINO pal Mitt Romney, and we all know “it’s Mitt’s turn.

Like it was McCain’s turn and Doles turn.

Like it was Boehner’s turn. See what waiting your turn does for you?

[silverleaf]

So WHAT

Who wants or needs squishy one-issue voters deciding our next President.

Gave them McCain last time.

Been there, done that

“independents” are not the sharpest tools in the box

They are swayed by emotion, image, propaganda ads, and innuendo and probably don't decide who to vote for until the day of the election

If they can't see a difference or won't make a choice between a Rick Perry and a Barry obama- screw them
They are probably obama voters or passive lemmings

[Opinionated Blowhard]

ROVE and BUSH worried is more like it. Screw them. They helped destroy the GOP with their Compassionate Conservatism.

[Brookhaven]

The should worry that Tea Partiers won’t turn out for Romney.

As bad as Obama is, if the GOP nominates McCain version 2.0 a significant percentage of Tea Pariters just won’t vote for him this time around.

[SouthTexas]

Republicans RINOs Worried GOP Front-Runner Rick Perry...

[Lazamataz]

I have a friend, who is an unabashed liberal. Straight-ticket Dem. Super Hippie-dippie-60's chick. Reads Daily Beast and Politico and HuffPo and DU and thinks that's reality.

She says, and she tells pollsters, she's 'independent'. Please understand, GOP, THESE are your 'independents'.

[kittymyrib]

You mean Perry may not win NY? So what? If Jesus ran on the Republican ticket, He couldn’t win in the northeast or the left coast. And McCain, the darling of GOP big-wigs, didn’t win there either.

As long as Perry wins the South, which is adding electoral votes in every census, and the Mid-West, he’ll do fine.

[ZULU]

Peter King has the backbone of a chocolate eclair.

Obama is an evil bastard who is screwing up America.

Bernanke is ANOTHER loser appointed by Bush II and carrie don by Obama.

Gutless GOP leadership like the kind exemplified by King is what put Obama in there in the first place.

Nothing Perry said is wrong - period.

[Carthego delenda est]

Either someone is trying to blatently de-rail the campaign or Bank of America doesn’t mind offering deals in front of cameras.

“Bank of America, we will help you out.”
