He’s tall, dark and handsome. And he’s not Mormon.
And mule stubborn.
In some years, that might be a negative. This time around, I think people are looking for a backbone. What a contrast between Perry and wimpy Barry.
Perry doesn’t back down until absolutely in-your-face forced to (as in gardasil and TTC).

Most Americans, and even most Republicans, probably don’t have a detailed understanding of any of these candidates or their history. Actually, I’d wager we on FR are the only people who really know what all these candidates are about, and that’s why we have strong opinions.
But the only thing that matters is to beat Obama, so if Perry has “it” then we must vote for Perry regardless of whether he would be the best president, which many of us doubt.
Perry was at Bilderberg a year or two past, by the way.
