This election is too important, we have to get rid of Obama.
We all see the importance of getting rid of obama. The question is who would be the best candidate to do it.
There is no question the Gingrich is the best debater and is great speaking on the spur of the moment. However, he has some negatives. His personal life has not been great. He ran a "consulting" company in DC and made millions off of his connections and influence. He has been on the wrong side of some issues and he looks to "manage" the govt more efficiently rather than diminish it's dominance over our lives.
Perry on the other hand is not the best debater and is not as sharp speaking on the spur of the moment. However, his personal life is solid. His track record as Gov is outstanding. He is firm in his support for the 10th Amendment and when you learn about how he has helped people you see a guy who isn't just concerned with policy and process. Also, he is clearly not a DC insider.
If we think the campaign will rest on debate performance Gingrich is probably the guy. If we think the campaign will rest on who you trust/like it's Perry.
Ask yourself which of these two guys could you do business with on a hand shake.
Quick question Newt might answer in a debate
"Your wife has a half a million dollar account at Tiffany's. In these troubled times how do you justify that and tell us how you met your wife."
Look don't hate me, I am just trying to wake everyone up past the nice debate performance and see what Newt can expect when the MSM starts in on him. He's got a very ugly past and he's not a likeable guy. We will concede the family values candidacy to Obama.
Also remember this, Bush was a 2 term President and we just cleaned house in the last elections. We need to remember what our message is as a party.
