Perry or Romney, If you had to pick?

For those who don't want either Romney or Perry, even if you'd never vote for either.

You know me and that I wouldn’t steer you wrong.

Perry just signed into law a Voter ID bill and a proof of citizenship for a TX DL. Neary got an anti-sanctuary cities bill also but, the votes weren’t there.

Perry has been hampered by Obama, not just on immigration but, energy production and a series of state’s rights issues.

IMO Perry has come around to what the people of Texas want and will do the same as POTUS.

Neither Romney or Perry are my choice. I will write in Palin, or ask her to be on Independent candidate.

Is Romney a marxist?

Well if you look at Romneycare or the way that he ran Massachusetts I would have no problem in saying that he is at least a socialist. And under the current economic conditions the nation is just as doomed under a Socialist as it would be under a Marxist.

Psssst, Ronald Reagan is dead. Just sayin.

Well, I was speaking ironically. Kind of like the kid, who when told he has a choice between chocolate and vanilla stomps his feet, holds his breath and insists on strawberry. Even though there's no strawberry.

1. Friend of illegals and Mexico (Trans corridor, open borders and bi-national health insurance)
2. Knee jerk nanny stater (Gardisil)
3. Political panderer to minority groups, including Latinos (see 1) and Muslums.

I simply don't trust him. So A BIG HELL NO for me.

I would vote for Perry 15 times before I’d vote for Romney.

I still want to see more on his record, but I’ll give him a serious shot, whereas Romney is....well, Romney.

That's like asking me to pick between a crowbar to the elbow and a baseball bat to the kneecap.

NO, to both, thanks. See this .45?

Well, if you stay home this election, it will be on your conscience.

I know, I skipped the Prez box in the last. (eventhough I knew full well who Texas would go for)

Anybody but Barrack Hussein Obama - remember this is not only about the Oval Office but about future SCOTUS appointments as well.

“If we don’t get a majority of conservatives in the house and senate in 2012 we are done anyway.”

Yes, essential point! The coat tails really matter. Perry and 54 Senators would probably be better than Reagan and 49 Senators.

For president, I would choose my male cat, Chipi, who has pinkish yellow fur.

He has a great personality. He would appeal to the white folks and the Asians/Oriental. (I’m not into PC so I don’t know which word I should not use.)

He is loved by everyone who comes into my home because of his personality.

Better, he pees on anything of which he is suspicious or doesn’t like.

His vice president should be my other kittycat, Rabinegra.

1. She is female which would win the female vote.

2. She is black which would win the black vote.

3. She is HIV positive which would win in that area of those who were careless in their personal lives.

This is the same old stupid lame set up for conservatives in the Republican Party. When will they stop falling for it?

“It is grossly ignorant to even compare the two.”

Is it grossly ignorant to not realize that most folks are grossly ignorant?

No one is suggesting a candidate has to be perfect, rather it is being pointed out to you that when a candidate gets too far to the left, it is better to vote for an imperfect but right wing candidate that is not the nominee rather than the leftist if that person is the nominee.

Tell us all wizard, if you have been out of a job eighteen months and food is running out...there are no jobs to be had and in fact places are closing down... are YOU going to bash your wife and daughters head in with a sledge hammer before you jump off a bridge, or are you going to lock them in the attic and set the house on fire before you jump off a bridge?

That question is no more asinine than the one you ask, and after all, you have no perfect way to pay the bills. Since you have no perfect way, you have to take one of the choices I offered, since no way is perfect.

The proper way to deal with Hegelian triangulation is to give it the ridicule it properly deserves.

If you're willing to settle for that, the Republican Party will be happy to oblige.

Good, that means my softer and more caring side is showing. Perhaps the meds and counseling is starting to work. LOL

Here is what is really scary... I am not sure I was joking. ;>)

If conservatives work hard enough it will not come to this.

I am also a fan of Watts.

Thank you.
