“You’re wrong. Bachmann is by far and away more liberal than Perry. It’s not even close.

Did you know that Bachmann signed on to Obama’s renewal of the Patriot Act this year? What was that about?”

Really?? When was Michele laying Brick at a mosque Abu?

She nailed Perry pretty , good. The Dream Act and hate Crimes pretty much spells RINO to me.

Do you really think Bachman can beat the “O”?

##

In a landslide and he coattails will give her 60+ Republican Senate.

The ruling political class and the press told us Reagan couldn’t win too. They got their way in 1976 and the country got Carter. In 1980 the people rebelled, nominated Reagan and w got two landslides.

Hopefully this is a repea of 1980 rather than a repeat of 1976.

Are you serious? Perry did not come in at the bakc of the pack. He had 200 more write in votes than Romney had regular votes.

I like the idea of Perry being a ruthless campaigner. I hope he lands a knockout punch on Obammy.

You bet she won.

Out of thousands of votes, Bachmann-Rollins won by an earth shaking 152 votes over crazy Paul. A storm if ever I’ve seen one. Full sails to the wind, I say.

Now THAT win is an impressive accomplishment with long legs and it speaks loudly of the probable course she is on.

Bachmann-Rollins 2012

You Betcha....

At least I know Bachman’s beliefs. With Perry, it seems we are expected to rely on a bunch of fans just saying how great he is. Example - Will someone please tell me about his specific positions concerning illegal aliens, border enforcement and amnesty? Have his acts backed up his positions? I really don’t know, but people don’t seem to talk about specifics re Perry, except for the vaccination issue.

Perry's ruthless drive to win.....

We have a hard core Marxist in the White House with a $1 billion war chest to spend on his reelection. We'd better field a ruthless candidate because this country cannot survive another four years of the usurper.

I'm currently reading a book about General Patton (The Man Behind the Legend). The book talks about Patton's ruthlessness and describes how that was exactly what was required at that time to defeat the Nazi menace. I want a "ruthless" candidate to fight the ruthless Marxist occupying the White House. Ruthless is good. We need ruthless. If you're going to dissuade others from supporting Perry in the battle to take our country back, perhaps you should come up with a different term.

RE :"So you’d rather vote for someone who doesn’t want to win?"

We tried compassionate conservativism (GWB) and it didnt work. Then we tried RINO Mccain flipping all his positions, that didnt work. Maybe we need to try a sincere conservative for a change.

So like this Lady named Bachmannnnn showed up. She didn’t come tell me I was, like special. She like walked in and like addressed the crowwwd. When she was done, she like walked ouuuuut. And I didn’t get any attention at ALLLLL! OMG, she like dissed me! Well I never!

Perry came over and like, smiled at me. He touched my hand. I couldn’t believe it. I was instantly, well, like in love. Those eyes! That hair. His firm grasp of my hand. Like OMG! That was so presidential.

Bachmann spent a fair amount of time in the state. She attended a number of events. She didn’t want to allow a guy who showed up there one day dominate, so she asked to make a presentation too. BFD

She didn’t have to through the crowd like she just showed up, and she had to desperately impress people, instead of express her views there over a period of time.

” But Perry’s calculated strategy also included announcing to the world he was “the winner” no matter where he stood in the final count.

Perry’s ruthless drive to win.....his slyness and arch-politician ways just might do him in. “

Mr. Amnesty

Mr. Dream Act

Mr. RINO

No sale : )

RE :"Good for you, sicko’fibs. Tell us true, who do you like? "

I dont see alot of RINO stuff coming from Bachmann.

The Perry Dream Act and hate Crimes laws are the type of RINO crap that destroyed the Republican party in 2007 and put Pelosi and Beohner in charge of the country. How can you give illegals college tuition discounts when they cant legally work?? That makes no sense. Here in Maryland a liberal governor pushed it into law too and the state RINOs got it on as a ballot issue to repeal it. Blacks dont even like the Dream Act.
