I have never seen Perry like this in a national/ or local debate. Something tells me he will do alright.I hope so.Death by a thousand paper cuts to Perry? America will see right through it and the only way it works is them reporting on it and no one watches the Obama liberal alphabet stations anymore but the very low percentage that are commiecrats.
I’m not a Perry fan, but I think making anything out of that secession response is really bogus.
BIG SMILE here
I’d hit it.../s
Is there a Cspan link?
Is there any other channell than MSNBC to watch the debate?
Why in some people’s sig quotes does this show up?
Â
Okay, thanks!
As Brown Deer suggested, Politico will be live streaming it. They’ll start their coverage at 7:30 and the debate is at 8.
A courtesy ping to "that lady" and my take on why she tries to keep some order on the hurricane threads, especially at landfall. Big graphics slow the load for those on dial up (believe it or don't some still are). The header on her threads always asks the we do not post the graphic, but rather the link.
If she reads this and feels any need to say more she will.
She has earned the right to run a tight thread by her years of service to this board. She takes her mission seriously as FReepers in threatened areas come together to help each other through the danger time.
Here’s the whole schedule for the debates:

Just in case you get it, I think it will also be shown on CBNC- the business channel of NBC.
Go Perry and Cain, seem to be favorites of mine from this group. Also, I guess Santorum and Bachman aren't bad.
I wish Thad McCotter was there, if nothing else he can, in a humorous, disarming way tell msnbc to go to hell. Like him or not, he has that quality. ALL of the candidates should find a way to put msnbc in it's place, showing a bit of Republican cohesion against the TV arm of the Obama administration.
Nancy Reagan seems to like Marco Rubio -- VP? Just my observations. And last but not least, reading your little bios, maybe he was a good doctor but Ron Paul as my GYN — Eek!!!
Thad McCotter not invited and the debate is on pms=lsd-nbc.
