When Rick Perry announced he was running for president back on August 13, to tell you the truth I got a little excited.
Now I know what you're thinking -- James you are a big Democrat, why on earth would you be excited about Perry running for president?
This was my thinking: Perry would get in and he would be a major force.
He was the bona fide conservative complete with a pedigree to take on Romney.
With the way things are shaping up now, the convention planners might be more inclined to take a motivational speaker. Hey Rick -- you are costing me airtime!
There is a dirty little secret about political people.
If you really love it, you hope for a good race that goes on and you enjoy watching people who are skilled at doing this.
It is literally painful to watch Rick Perry as a candidate. The case could be made that Rick Perry is the worst debater to ever run for president.
As far as I know he can't even give a good speech.
Not only can he not give an interview, he can't even roll out his flat tax plan. He steps all over it by saying, "Oh by the way, it's optional anyway."
Not only is Rick Perry utterly incapable of running for president, and in fact can't meet the basic requirement for any politician -- he can't even run his mouth.
To tell you the truth, it's gotten so bad people in Louisiana are actually starting to make Texas jokes.
If this thing gets any worse the people in Mississippi will be making Texas jokes -- then you've really hit rock bottom.
Rick, you have managed to embarrass yourself. So I guess you are good at something after all.

If Carville is talking about it, that means he feels threatened.
Who knew ole’ snakehead was a freeper?
“To tell you the truth, it’s gotten so bad people in Louisiana are actually starting to make Texas jokes.”
“If this thing gets any worse the people in Mississippi will be making Texas jokes — then you’ve really hit rock bottom.”
That’s hilarious.
Serpent head is a hard core Clintonista to the bone, I dont think he would be strategizing for Obama, more like Hillary.
Shut up James and eat your gumbo.
Go shed your skin Jim.
ROFLOL,
Ole Snakehead sure does know how to run HIS mouth. It’s surprising that he’s not an elected pol.
Isn’t Carville the prognosticator who proclaimed that the election of Barky would put the ‘Rats in charge for the next 40 years? I believe he even wrote a book about it. Carville is a turd.
PRESIDENT – NATIONAL (Rasmussen)
Barack Obama (D-inc) 45%
Rick Perry (R) 38%
The all seeing, all knowing Carville The Answer Man offers his prognostication (again).
8 months from now it’s “Herman’s Cain Presidential Bid is Toast”...
Carville looks like and acts like a snake
Hey Cajun Man, how did your prediction on the ‘04 election come out? About the same as Morris’s prediction on Hill’ry being the next president, eh?
Carville has benefitted from the MSM`s habit of mistaking common talk for common sense. He just babbles insulting and `colorful` bilge and claims it`s straight talk. But he doesn`t seem to know more than any other talking head. He`s their token `southern drawler.`
“Carville is a turd.”
And we all know,,,, (see my tagline)
“If this thing gets any worse the people in Mississippi will be making Texas jokes — then you’ve really hit rock bottom.”
Reminds me of now-deceased comedian Bill Hicks cracking a joke about Oklahoma, “Oklahoma-The only state Arkansas can make fun of. When you have Arkansas raggin’ your ass, you’re pretty low down on the food chain.”
Here’s the video of this routine.

Carville is a comedian. I laugh at his jokes but I consider the source. He spews the latest talking points for a joke. But in politics the story-line changes on a daily basis.
At least he has a sense of humor, and he doesn't hate America.
Snakehead is most likely shilling for Hillary, but he surely has Perry pegged correctly.
FauxNews has been running this latest Perry promotional interview non-stop all weekend, trying to make Perry appear not too dangerously stupid to be a vanity candidate -- and it is not working.
perry’s got the $ to take out rino romney.
good enough for me.
then, cain’s the candidate.
Who'd have thunk it?
I seriously doubt that carville feels threatened by a Perry candidacy. I think carville is a hack, cockroach scumbag, but he nailed some of Perry’s several faults to date.
I wish there were some way to track the predictions of these people.
If being un-American or pro-American is a measure of a pundit, we’re in serious trouble. Though I do agree with you, it IS perfectly clear which ones are which.
Carville ‘got some’ the other night from his conservative wife for saying something nice about Perry. Don’t take him too seriously.
Thanks for the tip.
Man ya'll are smoking something.
If it ain't Perry it's for sure going to be Romney because the Republicans want to beat Obama not just make a political statement.
Carville’s papa? Or Carville as a youth?
Perry isn’t threatening anyone other than Rick Santorum for 4th place.
You forgot to include ‘B screen actor’.
"Now I know what you're thinking -- James you are a big Democrat, why on earth would you be excited about Perry"...Y'know, that's not even close to what I was thinking.
I didn’t say he was an Air Force Lt., 2 term Governor of California and second in delegate count in the 1976 Republican nominating process.
The end of the world is surely near...
No problemo!
I was simply mocking your use of the same type of tactics the Liberals and Establishment Republicans used against Reagan.
I want to beat Obama and Cain gives us nothing Perry and Romney don't already give us he only can hurt us in the general election because people are voting for President.
the more I see the 25% fervor over Cain, the more I am convinced Romney will be our nominee.
Someone pointed out that the Republicans changed the rules for the Pre-April primaries, averaging the results this time.
It was most likely done to favor Romney, but it probably is going to work to the benefit of popular candidate like Cain, and against Romney, who can’t break that 25% glass ceiling.
There is no better time than now to have a real conservative as the R candidate. Obama is going to be trashed by a real conservative, or will run a close race with RINO.
Threatened by what? Perry's 7% in the polls?
Carville is a snake, but those comments were funny as the dickens...
