Perry is the guy you want to have a beer with and people don’t have to weigh how smart he is, all they need to know is that he has an amazing record as governor for ten years of one or our largest states.

Texas, the 13th largest economy in the world. Gov. Rick Perry, the longest serving governor of Texas.

Every candidate likes to say they are the only one who can beat Obama. Even the Paultards say Paul is. The fact is, it is going to be a hard fight. I don’t buy this “anyone can beat Obama” mantra. If only the informed vote, that would be one thing, but a majority of voters are ‘pop culture’ voters who go with who may be popular at the time. We don’t live in 1980 any more where people sit down and read the news paper and watch nightly news as a family any more. We live in American Idol, Glee, Jersey Shore world now.

You can't be serious, you really think people will vote for him because they'd prefer to have a beer with him?

I think most people won't vote for him because he can't articulate at all, he may be our worst candidate in the general at this point as far as electability is concerned.

Newt Gingrich running for president is like one of those bad movie sequels where you ask yourself, “why was it necessary to do this again?” We already ran an old, rich, fat, white guy. He was out of touch and lost by embarrassing margins.
 
 
 
 
True. And to add further insult to injury, the old, rich, fat, white guy we had in 2008 had better bona fides than Newt does

Well, I’m a Perry supporter but I hope this author is wrong. I’d like to think that any one of our people will take out Obama. We MUST take out Obama—MUST!!!

The ONLY candidate who can’t beat Obama is N. Leroy Gingrich.

He has to win the nominatuion first. But, if he were to somehow pull that off, I do believe he would beat Obama.

Newt is a fighter and he will take it to Obama. The base loves that, we eat it up and can’t wait to see a debate. But Newt’s style isn’t going to play exceedingly well to General Election Voters. He comes off as self-absorbed and arrogant. When he cuts down a reporter you’ll catch a brief glare and maybe a smirk, but never a smile.

I hadn't really thought about likeability, but it is not one of Newts strengths.

He gets lost answering questions in a debate and he is a poor debater, there’s a problem here.

"Gov. Rick Perry, the longest serving governor of Texas."

Texas can keep him for another 20 years.
