The best thing Perry has going for him is Romney as the alternative.
Romney is a guaranteed re-election of Obama because the base will not be enthused at best and a big chunk (depsite what our RINO masters tell us to do) will stay home.
Who would be enthused to come out and vote for Romney? Not only the base would be unenthused but independents as well wont be happy. The Republicans are going to nominate another rich, country club Repuclican who’s never had to worry about surviving in the real world.
The media and the Democrats are drooling over this scenario.
Disagree....polls also disagree. Romney running ahead of Obama in some places, and in a statistical dead heat on Rasmussen which has always been the gold standard used here at FreeRepublic. Now, all of a sudden it’s not? Seems strange.
Perry trails Obama nearly everywhere in a hypothetical matchup.
