Are you kidding me. Senator Murkowski has given us peasants our marching orders, “Romney's the man”.

Perry is a good conservative, excellent leadership skills and experience, and his “oops” don’t bother me. But I am still open.

Wasn’t it snoozing...

In my opinion, Bush never “won” a single presidential debate. He simply survived them.

For everyone salivating over the prospect of Newt debating Obama, there is no rule that says Obama has to agree to any debates. OTOH, if Perry ended up with the nomination, I'm sure Obama would want a debate a week.

Ultimately, a personal likability, a solid record without serious scandals, as well as an effective advertising campaign, will go a long way in winning the general. The debate winner is a small factor.

This is a very compelling argument for Perry and particularly against Gingrich.

It really comes down to what it always has come down to and that is record.

We need to appeal to people's intellect and common sense and that doesn't mean using a vocabulary that "shows our intellect", that's what frauds do.

The way the GOP appeals to intellect and common sense is to show side by side comparison of Obama's record and Perry's record during the same period of time, under the same economic conditions, inheriting the same economy that Bush left and how Perry;s model is better than Obama's. How Perry succeeded while Obama failed. How Perry has the proven conviction to implement that model in DC.

He is the only one who can convincingly make the states rights argument work because he really believes in it.

No one and I mean no one can argue with results. Newt was Speaker 15 years ago and kicked out by his party and Mitt was a 1 term blue state governor a decade ago.

Perry is doing work now. Under the same conditions (and worse) that Obama has.

You can put all the lipstick on this pig that Max Factor might have in stock, as well as gallons of their finest perfume, and you still, will not get Perry past 10%.

And in the General Election, Perry will give Obama one of the biggest margins of victory since Reagan/Mondale.

Let CNN, Politico, Wash-Compost and the NY Slimes explain why the Governor of the most successful state in the Union doesn’t deserve to be President MORE than a crackhead.

Well, I just don’t think that Rick-8%-Perry is going to make it.

Kinda sorry if that sounds ‘heartless’.

GO NEWT GO.....

"Rick Perry is the only candidate with a successful record of governing. That and, more importantly, what he has accomplished in governing make him the clear choice for President."

Agreed!

I think Rick and Rick would make a great combination - they are both Christians, they’re both pro life. Perry has governing experience, and Santorum has foreign policy experience.

Two young, handsome guys - smart; doers, etc. I think it would be great!!
