Well, let's see. First things first. As to candidates, I favor Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin: Bachmann is a little more conservative, both women are truly admirable, and I think both are truly hated by the RiNO Establishment -- Sarah the more, because she is more dangerous to their "ownership" of the GOP because she's more dynamic and has more street smarts. I also like Herman Cain, although I'm not as strong on him because, as someone pointed out, he is a Fedhead. And I still like Fred Thompson, if he'd run and if he was about five years younger. But the MSM are going to rip apart whoever threatens their Golden Child this year, so I think I'd probably rather Sarah took that test; I think she can stand up to it.

Quotes? How about I point you to a late-2005 Houston Chronicle article about Kay Bailey Hutchison? That had quotes. Like, "I've got good money invested in Rick Perry, and I mean to get my money's worth". That was a good quote -- from the meeting between these men I'm talking about, the ones who hold Perry's leash, and Kay and whoever she brought with her.

Not that I'm a Kay fan. But she was there, and these men talked very bluntly to her, as masters of Texas to a bystander, about what they expected and what they had paid for. You don't have to read stuff like that again, to get the drift.

I'd quote the whole article, but I did that last night with another article from 2007, about RiNOs giving early money to candidates, and the Admin Mod took it down. (Look at my in-forum history, and you'll see it right away. The hole, anyway.)

Thanks for the thoughtful response!

I have NO problem what-so-ever with either Sarah Palin or Michelle Bachmann and could happily support either if they managed to get the nomination but that isn’t going to happen. In fact, I would bet the farm that Sarah will soon announce that she will NOT seek the nomination and will endorse Rick Perry. I guess we will just have to wait and see whether or not I’m right about that. Shouldn’t be a long wait.

If that happened would you then support Rick Perry keeping in mind that the goal is to get OBOZO out in 2012?
