Perry’s a good guy in my book. I’ve ended up on the opposite side from several Perry people the last few days, but let’s both sides remember the real goal in all this is to get that sleazy Marxist out of office.
Attacking other Republicans is not the way to do that.
On that point I whole-heartedly agree with you my friend.
Discussion and debate should be about shaking out the various proposals to get rid of Obama and undo the damage he's done, and not about making personal attacks on each other.
I am, as you no doubt can tell, a Perry supporter; however, I am happy to acknowledge that he has some warts and pimples on his political record - I'd be suspicious if he didn't - and I am happy to acknowledge that Ms. Palin is an effective advocate for conservativism and that the Republican candidates could definitely not go wrong by taking many of her positions seriously as reflecting the views of a large number of Americans; however, I also maintain that her record is not as pristine as some - and I am not referring to you - maintain and some of her talking points are a bit unrealistic.
My primary concern with Ms. Palin is not that she's some sort of a loser, but that she's still a bit too green - it still takes time to make a fine wine, even from the first pressing of the grapes - and that she stands more to lose from running now than if she kept up her current public role and looked to stand for President in 2016 or 2020. I think that if she were to do that, she would be almost unstoppable.
