Hopefully, the gap just widens going forward.
We’ll see how Perry does in the debates.
I’ll be watching with keen interest, critical eye and hopeful heart.
I am putting Perry’s chance at being the next president at about 90% at this point.
What makes you so confident that we’ll put another Texan in the White House so soon after Bush?
So much for the sexy Perry meme.
polls like this, and my gut.
As a two+ term governor of a large state, a former Air Force captain, an eagle scout, and a pistol-packing conservative, Perry is the anti-Obama and just needs to sell himself as that.
We’re at the point where some of the peripheral conservatives need to drop out. They are going no place, and they know it.
Romney can go as soon as possible and do us all a favour.
Woman have always voted stupidly. Those are probably the same women who put obama in office. It’s all about “choice” to them. I’ll take a pro life, pro second amendment cowboy over a phony, cowardly, ivy league partial birth abortion advocate any day.
considering he’s gone from 30/46 to 41/44 to 44/41 in the space of 2 weeks in this poll, i’d say he’s doing alright at this point.
Let the process play out. It's still a bit to go until primaries. Let things play out.
What makes you so confident that well put another Texan in the White House so soon after Bush?
++++++++++++++++++++
I can answer that.
It’s time to put an American in the White House and the last time I checked Kenya wasn’t one of the “57 states” and Texas still is.
Jobs.
The current president has a dreadful record, and Perry has a good record. He's a veteran campaigner, and has the perfect narrative to oppose a failed DC central planner. The Texas meme is the only thing the Democrats have against Perry. We'll hear about it relentlessly, but it is not going to sway most voters.
No matter who runs the Democrats will run a scorched earth campaign to destroy our candidate. My first requirement for this candidate selection is to evaluate who can stand on a stage with Obama and punch back hard against the propaganda.
Ditto.
We can start with the Rhino Huntsman....McCain the second!!!
Teaxs?....well the chicago, kansas, hawaii, wherever the hell he’s from Presidency has really worked out, has’nt it?
At least you’ll get honour from a Texan, now Illinois, thats a totally different kind of cesspit.
I don't really know much about Perry, good or bad, but I do know this:
HE AIN'T 0BAMA!!!!
FUBO GTFO ! 507 Days until Noon Jan 20, 2013
Generic Republican has been leading Obama forever.
What is more generically Republican than a Governor of Texas these days? Nothing.
