Perry is just a slow-talking Texas man. I have family that
come from where he did, and they spoke the same deliberate,
slow manner.
It doesn’t keep his ideas for putting Americans back to work any less palatable! For all that the mods left him out of the
dialog, his answers were the most common sense ones.
“Don’t much like the Romney-Cain mutual admiration society.”
“I’m glad I’m not the only one who saw that.”
No FRiend, there are others that see the TRUTH.
And some of us have been attacked over that TRUTH.
Cain = Romney = Obama
I'd pay to see that ...
Me too, in fact I'd give anything to see it live! . . plus I get to be one of the moderators. Hhrruumph!
50% of Americans are morons with the attention span of a Gnat. They will focus long enough to see one of next years Presidental debates. If Perry can’t hold his own in a debate,then he is history with these Dip$hits. Indications are that he is very weak in this area. “ <<<
Can’t argue with a word you said. Perry is great on the stump, but if debates are the only path to the nomination, he is not yet crossing the Tiber. I will try to give Rick October, where there are believe 5 debates scheduled! But this is turning fast by the powers that be toward Romney. As Perry fails, Romney will be get cash to overwhelm. Cain is begrudging taxation on Greta now, but his economic plan is a tax plan. Go figure. And now whining about “attacks” on his plan. But, he is fussing about Romney’s complicated plan vs. his simple plan, and Romney’s loop hole heavy version. Seems he may have figured out that he has been used as a foil against Perry, by his pal Romney for one debate too many.
Drey, why are you lying? She most cetainly did say she would...
“I think he is talking smack.”
And you’re objective too, right?
Yes, Perry did very well.
I think he is talking smack.
For the benefit of anyone reading this thread, what Cain really said was that adopting his tax plan would lead to 5% GDP growth
I don't think so. Perry was fine. All he has to do is make steady progress. He doesn't have to be a "superstar" at the debates. He has the resume.
Romney is not going to pull away. Christie is only big to the northeast Pubs. Romney can't get out of the 20% support level. If you look at him it's hard to believe he's honest.
Very well said! Thank you.
If you had to draw up a board of all the things that would need to happen for Sarah to waltz in and grab the conservative mantle, all has come to pass and then some. You couldn’t draw it up better.You've got a point there. But I don't think "something(one) kept her out".
I think she decided on her own.
“Drey, why are you lying?”
You’ve seen/heard Perry. Do you not realize how hard it is to shill for....THAT? If one has to lie about the leading conservative of our time, so be it if it helps his candidate.
Hey it could be worse, our frontrunners could be Dole or McCain. Or Jeb.
Even Mittens doesn’t come across as bad those guys.
I don’t think we are in that bad of shape - every candidate has a wart or two, but Obama has a million venereal warts (some of which were contracted from Larry Sinclair.)
We’ll be okay. The best person should emerge if the media will let us decide.
So you’re just gonna accept that??
And at least if they won’t hunt them down and deport (I agree, not feasible), they will make it uncomfortable for them to be here.....Perry rolls out the welcome wagon
Thanx, I had never heard of any famous financial/economy wonk from Cleveland, TX. Don't know why Cain confused Cleveland, Ohio, with Cleveland, TX, especially if this Lowrey Lowrie guy is his go to guy.
“It is painfully obvious now that she is after a position in a Romney administration and it is utterly sickening.”
I’m afraid you’re right. I’m ashamed to admit that just a few months back I was defending Michele here in FR from these charges. I’ve also thrown away a couple hundred dollars to her campaign (I do live in her district and have phone-banked for past Congressional campaigns, so I guess she’s kind of a “hometown favorite” to me). After Perry got into the race, my eyes have really been opened. I never imagined she would align herself with a slimeball like Romney, but after tonight’s debate, I don’t think anyone with any intellectual honesty can conclude otherwise.
I thought that was an odd mistake as well, unless he was thinking of something Perry had said and Texas was on his mind.
Perry did simply mediocre and got stung bad by Romney. Regardless of what the percentages are that statement by Romney is going to stick. Perry needed to excel to bring his numbers up and didn’t. He may have held his own but right now his own is down below 10%.
My assessment of the debate was that Newt was awesome as usual
Mitt looked methodic but unbalanced and a bit empty on his smooth ass rejoinders.
Perry got a bit of a break not being beaten on from all quarters. I thought he did fine but nothing really exceptional.
I think Herman is in for a world of hurt on his 999 plan.
Bachmann and Santorom successfully highlighted the flaws even if Bachmann used her whiney ass 666 line.
My opinion? Perry is still standing.
