Newt will soon poll at double MittWitt’s level...among likely primary voters.

I actually like Perry more than Newt, but he lacks essential skills.

yep..

I’d bet big money Gingrich knows more of the details of Perry’s issues than Perry does

Well I would argue Perry has the essential skills to govern our nation out of this mess.

My question to you is, how good of a pick is Newt if Obama refuses to debate? 1 billion to spend on a treasure trove of Newt baggage,and Newt himself is not even that likeable.

Like what kind of essential skills?

If Cain drops out I will probably move to the Perry Camp.

I don’t think so. He’s actually run a state, a large state for 11 years quite skillfully.

If you mean debating skills, Perry’s mouth doesn’t run a mile a minute but he expresses himself extremely well in all his interviews. Contrast his interview with Brett Baiar with that of Romney.

Romney got testy, couldn’t take the heat and whined later.

Rick was calm and genial and answered every question honestly and well.

Now, Gingrich has the mouth, but that mouth can get him into trouble as quickly as it got him into national contention. He’s smart and I like him, but he has political A.D.D. He has a million ideas but he has a problem with consistency and focus.

Not dissin’ Newt completely, but Rick is the better man.

So far we’ve had several rise to the top only to fall. We had Sarah, who backed out of running.

We had Cain who self-destructed.

We’ve got Romney whose numbers are decent but haven’t moved.

If Perry could just get a big bump somehow, I think he could bring it home.
