Don't like Perry? How about promoting your candidates positives?

We are adults and most on FR are very intelligent persons. I think we can decide if a candidate is right for us.

How about stop repeating the same Gardasil, Texas corridor, immigration stories over and over and over. Most have seen them by now if they have been paying attention. Most have judged the stories and condemn Perry to hell for them or they think that a president just might have different priorities than a state governor.

Screaming at us in all caps isn't going to change any minds. FR isn't the entire universe of voters. We are a very small pool of voters. If you're hell bent on trashing a candidate, it is likely that your efforts are wasted trying to persuade FR posters to change their minds about a candidate. Start standing out by the road with a sign telling your horror stories, pestering people in restaurants and buying billboards and advertising in newspapers and TV. You will have much more impact.

If you insist on cherry picking the negatives, can we do the same to you reviewing every decision and action that you have taken in your life? How would that work out for you? Honestly showing everything you have done, could you withstand the scrutiny?

I realize some of you insist that we are making a horrible mistake. The primary isn't until next year. Stop screaming. OK?

Chill out people.

No lets not talk about what’s wrong with St Rick. LOL

You mean like every time Palin is brought up, call her a "quitter" and pretend like there is no context and that she is therefore disqualified from doing anything except raising funds for your fake-conservative of choice?

[justsaynomore]

Gee, where were you when people on FR have been trashing Bachmann and Cain for the past 4 months.

[DRey]

I guess if you think her being a “quitter” is a positive, you should post it.

[buccaneer81]

Spot on!

[bgill]

Go, Cain!

[cripplecreek]

So far I haven’t seen one candidate get a free ride around here and Perry isn’t going to be any different.

[GeronL]

Yes, how dare we question him!

[listenhillary]

You are incapable of doing it aren’t you?

[nanetteclaret]

Welcome to the Religion Forum! Why don’t we talk about being Catholic vs. Protestant. We’ll have the same level of vitriol with a different change of subject.

[DRey]

They always take it back to Perry. Their candidate doesn’t seem to measure up so negativity is all they have. Nice try, though.

[mylife]

Oh listenhillary, we are just going to get cleansed if we don’t chill out.

Ixnay the ensenay!

[buccaneer81]

Childish.

We are adults and most on FR are very intelligent persons.

And that's exactly why when you try and pimp a moderate as a conservative candidate for POTUS on a website that is devoted to the conservative cause you will be rightly informed of the flaws of said candidate.

Sorry, but the truth is the truth and it shows how ill-suited Perry is, from a conservative perspective, for the job of POTUS.

[listenhillary]

I haven’ seen anything new since the fist week. Regurgitate it often enough and it kind of resembles the stuff they make chicken mcnuggets out of.

[Bigtigermike]

Bingo! There is nothing new under the sun here at FR....it’s been that way for years and Palin has been exhibit #1

[gov_bean_ counter]

Did you know you are a DU troll???

Just wondering.. :)

[listenhillary]

OK, but you are NOT having any impact saying the same thing over and over on FR.

The primaries are months and months away. How about something we haven’t heard 50 times already?
