Perry cleans up well and is articulate. Look how far that got us with Obama.
Exactly. No Independents or conservative Democrats are going to vote for another no-name congressperson just because they make pretty sounds. People are going to go back to what has worked (or at least didn’t so totally screw things up) in the past. A successful governor.
Bachman and Palin have as much chance as Paul. You think otherwise, you are just deluding yourself.
Period. End of story.
Governors in Texas are merely figureheads. They are paper signers and speech makers. They are far down the list when it comes to making laws. It’s the Texas legislature and it’s people who do that. Yes, Texas is holding it’s own fairly well during this economic crisis but it’s thanks to the Texas legislature that have encouraged tech companies and such to move from both coasts because we have cheaper land and lower salaries. This has nothing to do with anything the governor has done. Again, anyone can be a “successful” Texas governor, even my cat if he’d learn to sign his name.
