What nonsense. Vetting candidates is good. Perry was elected three times and has been Governor for 11 years. Over the years I've read all the news items about Perry. His call for Texas succession; his EO on Gardasil; his opposition to SocSec; charges of crony capitalism; his support for the Trans-Texas corridor; and his friendliness towards La Raza. Perry has been vetted his entire career and he's still getting elected by a conservative electorate in Texas.
Any objective observer of politics right now understands with Bachmann in meltdown and Cain fading fast this race is quickly boiling down to either the liberal Romney or the conservative Perry. If the choice is between those two, I know who'll I be voting for. How about you?
That's pretty much the way I see it as well. I just don't see Palin getting in the race, which is a shame because her establishment-fighting methods are what we need now. I don't see anyone else being able to take on Romney other than Perry. That makes it a rather stark choice.

Palin still has a month left. I will never vote for Romney. Perry I will vote for, and then vote with my money and get it out of the country. Even Palin would face huge problems which are unsolvable except thrugh a giant crash.
