Gov. Rick Perry is the Executive of the 15 largest economy in the world — for 10 years — even under the Obama attack against this country’s economy, Perry has created the environment to “create” 48% of all new jobs filled in the 50 states. He has fought the EPA and Ed Dept, trial lawyers and the Fed inaction on our 1250 INTERNATIONAL border with Mexico — for starters.

But actions apparently don’t speak louder than good talkers to some.

What if Obama decides he just doesn’t want to debate? Then what? You’re stuck with the silver tongued Newt who is a died in the wool, reach across the aisle, big government, loves the U.N. moderate.

Proves you don't listen to what Newt is saying these days. He's got an EXCELLENT solution to that which he's already made public and even making it public the Obambi handlers will be able to do nothing to defuse it.

Newt is truly brilliant. And he's on our side. And that's what we need. Brilliance on our side.

And THAT is true for the majority of the electorate -- whether for a party or the vast majority that are undecided.

I'm not going to debate Perry's good deeds, but he is unable to talk about them and to debate him.

he will not inspire the undecided to vote for him, he may not even inspire many of the less anxious GOPers to get out and vote. Don't get me wrong -- if Perry is the GOP candidate i WILL vote for him, he's better than Romney or Obama

But he would not win against President Teleprompter

What if Obama decides he just doesn’t want to debate? Then what? -- then he'll be derided as a coward and lose votes

Gingrich can also demolish Obama on his own, in the press -- something that Perry can't do

Also, Perry's various ideas are not presented well by him, either on the net or in person.

Take the scenario you put of Gingrich/Cain as candidate and Obambi refusing to debate -- the majority will consider him a coward and Gingrich/Cain's speeches will point out just where he stands and people will contrast Obambi's lack of inspiration with these two folks who have done something. If Perry is there, he may have done a lot, but he wont' be able to inspire the undecided

You’re stuck with the silver tongued Newt who is a died in the wool, reach across the aisle, big government, loves the U.N. moderate. -- now that is just not true. Newt may not be an extreme guy like Paul, but he is just as "moderate" taken eveything as Perry. "reach across the aisle" -- not a bad idea if we want to get something passed instead of reaching an impasse. He's not a "loves the UN" guy.

I admire your defense of and promotion of Perry and yes, his performance in Texas needs no defence, but I submit that he is not a viable candidate
