Exactly. What Bain did is game the system and the reason the Wall St/DC axis needs to be broken.

That's Occupier talk.

Michelle Malkin was right: Gingrich and Perry are just like the Occupiers. (See her blog: The abysmal incompetence of the non-Romneys; Huntsman, Gingrich, Perry all go Occupier; Santorum declines)

I don't think we want an Occupier as the Republican presidential nominee.

Can you imaging the regulations against businessmen like Perry we would see if Newt and his Socialist supporters seize power?

Newt is about dead and Santorum is just starting to soar. Santorum would make an unbelievable nominee. Please join us and rally around Santorum as the flag bearer for the anti-Romney conservative vote.

THE TEA PARTY AND RICK SANTORUM WILL WIN!!!

So your for the Wall ST./DC pipeline?

It’s akin to what happened with TARP. When the CDS and derivatives mess (which Wall ST had created) was about to consume them whole Paulson, Bush and Pelosi rode in with a bag of goodies totaling $787 billion which Myth also supported. Nothing but a government handout as those firms were deemed “too big to fail”. Without that a huge chunk of taxpayer funds Wall St. fails and much of the bad debt overhang would have been wiped out. Too bad some of the companies Bain chopped up didn’t have the same type access to the taxpayer’s dime.

I will vote Gingrich, Perry or Santorum but I’m under no illusion that any of them is the perfect candidate. BTW, Perry was the only one in Iowa with the guts to oppose ethanol subsidies up and down the line. Just check the Iowa Renewable Fuels Association voter’s guide.

Great post. I reluctantly agree and will vote for Santorum if he`s still standing come Super Tuesday But I don`t like it..

Sad how this place has decayed, though. You can`t read a thread without these bizarre attacks on capitalism [and that`s what they are, and 99% are by folks who obviously don`t even understand what Bain and other such companies do, or how businesses actually work in a capitalist system],or exchanges of `You disagree with me so you`re a Romneybot!` crap. I having just said I will support Santorum [who I don`t like but he`s the best we`ve got] am, obviously, a Romneybot.

As to the hatred aimed at Romney [and I admit, I called him `evil,` and shouldn`t have] as opposed to just disagreeing with him, it`s really hurting this place. A poll came out showing most conservatives could support him. It reminded me that FR is for a certain kind of conservative, and is not representative of ALL conservatives--and there`s nothing wrong with that.

Little tough to discern the above but re: Rick Perry. His words are (somewhat desperate) political attacks and are not to be taken seriously. We're sophisticated enough to understand that, right? He has a long, clear record of overseeing a very low state regulatory business environment here in Texas. Check it. I've owned and operated a business since 1995, and the vast majority of regulations here are Federally imposed. In the increasingly unlikely event that Perry would ever sit in the White House you can be confident in his laissez-faire executive approach to the economy.

There are problems with Perry, but you're barking up the wrong tree. And it sure doesn't make Santorum any more attractive.
