"Perry is the man to back as the over all best candidate."

You're not from Texas nor do you live in Texas, is that correct?

Look at my homepage. Yes I am from Texas and yes I voted for Perry as did most Texans. Perry beat KBH by 20 points in the primary a real Rino D.C. insider with support from the Bush clan

I'm from Texas and have lived here all my life. I would vote for Palin if she runs. I would vote Perry after Bachmann, Santorum, Cain, and Newt get out. I would vote for him over Paul and Obama. Actually, I would vote for McCotter before Perry. There are a couple of more Libertarians I wouldn't vote for, but am too lazy to look them up. On a scale of 1-10, Perry is about a 5 or 6, IMO. He is just more politician than saviour. I see a lot of disappointment coming if people think he is Tea Party material. He's not the worst we can do, we have that now, but he will disappoint before election day. IMHO, GWB was better than Perry.

Being governor of Texas is easy because we are a right to work state and have no income tax. If you can just not screw that up, we win. We have had several attempts over the years at the income tax but were able to fight that off. Also, messing with our guns would be suicide and even most Dems shy away from that. The Texas corridor and the Guardasil controversy will hit him square in the puss right out of the gate, IMO. If it doesn't, the MSM is pulling for him thinking he's better than Bachmann or Romney. When you have been governor of a successful state, I'm sure they can find something to crow about, but lets not overlook the warts. IMO, Perry has gotten "more conservative" in the last few years. IMO, it is feaux.( That's Louisianan for false) I think he got his new stripes when he suggested Texas might secede from the union and Texans cheered. If you want to get attention in Texas, that's always a good one. A candidate in Texas that ran on seceding from the union might surprise people on the votes he/she would get. The "loser pays" law is something else Perry might crow about, but we haven't seen how that works out yet. All this is a far cry from straightening out the US. He still wouldn't close the border IMO. I like some of Paul's economic principles, but would NEVER vote him president. Perry could be just as bad as President. Having a couple of conservative principles doesn't make you presidential material. He has good hair, I guess that's a plus. I haven't heard of women fainting yet.
