It's hard to log on and read the threads on the FR and not wonder what is going on, have the Freepers went off thier rockers? Has Obama driven them insane? I know I'm going to take some heat for this but it needs saying. Oh, and this was posted in the CHIT/CHAT forum where things like this can be posted.
Let's categorize the crazies:
1) First, theirs the Sarah Palin is running but she's so brilliant she's skipping all the debates crowd. She's not running folks, she all but made that clear while signing autograph's at the fair today.
2) Second, there's the thread titled "Perry was the winner of the Iowa debate!". Is somebody smoking crack? And now he's even the favorite canidate of the tea party? really? Al Gores ol' campaign manager and open borders guy?
3) Next we have the "Ron Paul won the debate guys" (you all probably got the email like I did). Please, come on, folks, wake up. Even if he wins the poll it will mean nothing, he will fade away as usual and you know it. You guys remind me of Linus waiting year after year for the great pumpkin.
4) Next there's the Cain won the debate folks, now I like Cain and would vote for him for Prez, but he will soon be out and deep down inside you know it too.
I'm going to stop here, but could go on, I'm no expert, I'm just seeing a ton of irrational, emotionally based, wishful thinking and some moon bat-ness that suprises me frankly.
Okay, you may now commence to ripping me to shreds.
No bashing from me. But you did make me choke on a nacho with the Great Pumpkin analogy. LOL!!!
I agree with you on the bashing here though but I’m guessing it will be like this until we get a nominee.
No you’re OK, you left my candidate alone.
LOL
Perry hasn’t really changed, nor has Al Gore. Only 4 years ago Perry backed Demonrat-in-all-but-name Rudy Giuliani for President. He echoes the idiocy of G.W. Bush regarding illegal aliens and Muslims (”Islam is a great religion”—R. P.).
Reagan didn't announce until 11 months before the election.
Ten egregious grammatical errors, and I stopped reading. Try to do better next time.
He wasn’t and isn’t a conservative.
You better be careful. You’re gonna incur the wrath of the Patrick J. Buchanan supporters.
Were you there ?
If not, source please ?

Romney is obama
Romney will never make it outa the primaries.
Please, do go on.
Nope. Can’t vote for him. I can’t get past the magic underwear, plus the obvious RINO factor.
1) I no longer care what Palin is doing. Expecting people to wait another two months for her to decide to enter a race where she polls horribly was the deal breaker for me. Way to put conservatism first Sarah. Yes, let’s give Romney another two months in the lead to himself and encourge conservatives to remain divided over a candidate on the off chance you might run. Your polling isn’t going to improve so there is no reason to wait. You want to run? Then get in the race now. Otherwise I think this is just a way to keep yourself relevant and nothing more.
2) Cain doesn’t register as having a prayer.
3) Ron Paul is a nut on foriegn affairs.
4) Newsflash...they are all open borders. I came to that realization when Tancredo backed Romney. I no longer trust any of them on the topic which is why Perry’s position is now irrelevant to me. What is of value to me is that it’s been proven he’ll back down on bad legislation when pressure is high enough. Better then a politician when pressured that doesn’t back down (Obamacare).
