I’m an avowed Palinista. If Palin (finally) anounces, she gets my support. Period.
If she doesn’t, Perry does. He’s the only other one who is likely to primary Romney. He’s not great, but he gets most of my core issues: State’s rights, 2nd Amendment, fiscal restraint, and pro-life (although his record here is shakey).
Kinda sucks on illegal immigration and has bad NWO tendencies, but he’s infinitely better than Romney.
What about Bachmann? Maybe. Cain? Ditto. They’d have to show some real strength against MittCare Romney before I bought in, though. West if he ran? I’d toss everyone else over for West, but he won’t run this time.
Perry is the least acceptable conservative candidate, but acceptable. Infinitely better than McCain for example. I won’t be holding my nose.
And his jobs record is a winner with the middle. A BIG one.

PS Please announce, Palin or West. PLEASE!
Perry’s very strong on prolife and profamily issues. He has always backed our cause in Austin.
