Even Mit Romney? Is Perry that bad?

While Perry is third or fourth as compared to other republicans, he’s about equal with Cain in polls when they are put against Obama. Unfortunately RINO Romney is trending higher than either against Obama.

Romney is typically 1st, Paul is typically 2nd, with strong numbers with 18-29, strong numbers with Is, but high undecideds with Republicans. The rest are all pretty much indistinguishable, no interesting differences.

All the old stuff that freepers knew about years ago disqualified him from the beginning. The articles were there 4 years ago.

I wouldn’t vote for Romney in the Primary, but I would in the General. We ask the RINOs to support the Conservative, and Romney is clearly a RINO, the RINOs will ask for the Conservative support. There’s really nothing awful in the Romney background apart from policy, that his positions have been insufficiently Conservative.

Just Gardasil is a disqualifier. Every single angle of that story is just pure awfulness. Not Perry is too liberal, it’s Perry is an evil person. And it’s rare to see that evilness. His favorability numbers are so amazingly low in some places. I think that’s a reflection of the evil factor.

The media just keeps pushing the one’s (perry & romney) they know obama can beat, while they do their best to tear down the one they know he can’t.

Goooo Herman!!

So the Washington Post Hopes....

Think Perry’s combine attack on Cain back fired BIG TIME.

Cain without a doubt is the clear leader and has gained ground since the Perry Camp (aka Mr. Heartless), media and press attacked Cain.

Cain's got problems. Only the willfully blind don't see them.

We all saw the amateurish response to the Politico-started firestorm. There's the persistent problems with message and having to restate positions. There's the campaign finance violation story that flew under the radar during the sexual harassment mess.

There's also Cain's unpreparedness that has followed his candidacy all along the road from his initial announcement where he mixed up the constitution and declaration, to the palestinian right of return and other foreign policy questions, to a gaffe about signing a constitutional amendment and at even the Saturday "debate" where he deferred to Newt when he was stumped.

He could fix this by getting serious, by finally studying up and using some cash to improve his campaign staff. There's no evidence he's going to fix it and that should worry everyone who wants to see Obama be a one term president.

Is she running yet? Of that we were also assured.

We were bombasted with:

She’s running.

There’s no way she’s not running.

Any other word was forbidden.

Turned out, people didn’t know what she was going to do.

They just SAID they knew.

People still don’t know what she’s going to do.

But they keep right on claiming to read her mind.

So when they do, I ask, “Is she running yet?”

LOL

Saying that Newt is "inching his way back" is nonsense, he's never been higher than he is now.

Gingrich/Cain '12

Gardasil never happened.

You are obsessed with something that isn’t even real.

People are slowly getting to know him and beginning to look at Texas. I have to laugh at people saying "they're only low paying jobs" LOL. Even if that were true, which it is not, people with NO job would love to have the opportunity to have ANY job.

He has a hard time fighting the trial lawyers because they fear him passing Tort Reform on a national level as they have done in Texas.

Would not support Perry in Nov 12. Would support any other Republican Nominee.

That's very grown up of you. I'm sure Ron Paul, Mitt Romney and of course, barack obama, appreciate your potential support.

Like Romney and Paul?

You don't sound like a conservative to me.

Perry’s role in the Gardasil fiasco did happen.

Only because the legislature stepped in and stopped it. That is the only reason why the girls were not shot up with Gardasil.

Perry did make a deal with Merck and so did his chief staffer.

Gardasil is just the tip of the iceberg with Rick Perry.

Perry can’t even go after Obama for his fast and loose use of Executive Orders.
