I’m going to give you the God’s honest truth, but as I have seen from post after post you and the truth are not well acquainted (as for example your claim that Perry does not support amnesty, when he is on record as favoring legalizing the illegals).
Rick Perry’s problem at the moment is NOT the MSM and the Left. Rick Perry’s problem at the moment is with the conservative base. Do you get that?
There are two reasons for this.
1. His performance at the debates did not inspire confidence in people that he is quick on his feet or an articulate advocate for conservative positions. In this respect he is reminiscent of another past Texas governor whom the Democrats wish they could travel back in time and run against.
2. His position on the illegals is anathema to conservatives.
I’ve said this repeatedly that what Rick needs to do is sincerely and credibly repudiate and reverse his position on this whole illegals business.
He would be better off running as a flip-flopper than as pro-illegals.
As long as he doesn’t do this, I expect him to be a weak candidate. I’m not saying that he is incapable of winning the nomination with these positions, because he has an enormous amount of money from the open-borders interests to play with. I would not be surprised if some of the billions from the drug cartels wind up in his war chest after suitable laundering. But he would win the nomination in a weaker position with his base than otherwise.
Putting aside your characterization of me -- give me a link to that claim that is on record.
Perry attacks administration at campaign stop in Hampton, N.H......"On immigration policy, Perry said he is opposed to amnesty and will always be opposed to amnesty. "For decades we have had a federal government that has failed its constitutional duty to protect its borders," he said. "You have to ask, are we going to have a president that is going to stop the illegal activities happening on the border?"
Rick Perry’s problem at the moment is NOT the MSM and the Left. Rick Perry’s problem at the moment is with the conservative base. Do you get that?...........
Now you have refused to answer my question about the MSM and the Left and why they are attacking Rick Perry so hard, finding it safer to retreat to your comfort zone -- disinformation.
