KBH won three Texas Senate elections with 67%,61%,65% and 62% of the vote. In 2010 she had the backing of the Bush clan and Dick Cheney in her run against Rick Perry. As for Perry bringing in conservatives from outside Texas, BFD! This is hardball politics. Politicians campaign for other candidates all over the country. Sarah Palin endorsed Rick Perry in 2010 and even came to Texas to campaign for him.
>>>>>>Electorial success doesn’t prove Conservative credentials..
That is true. As I pointed out Perry has governed as a conservative for the last 11 years. His policies have kept Texas competitive in creating jobs, keeping taxes low with restraints on spending. Along with serious tort reform and reductions in regulations. Perry also signed a bill into law that closed down ALL Planned Parenthood abortion on demand clinics throughout the state of Texas.
You need to get your facts straight and keep them straight.
“You need to get your facts straight and keep them straight.”
The fact is that of all my Texan friends very few, if any, are fans of Perry. The best I ever get is “ Yeah, well I guess he’s OK. (Sigh.)” His diving national compaign is systematic of the problems he has in selling himself and his record......tout him all you want, but he has major PR problems, and doesn’t seem to get much traction. I, for one, would have to strech a lot to get even a small iota of enthusiam for a Perry candidacy.
Question????? Do you think he’ll ask Sarah Palin for help again? Heck, he enlisted her to beat KBH when his record couldn’t do it on it’s own. History shows Sarah almost single handidly drug McCain over the line in 2008 despite his best efforts to sabatoge his own campaign.
Maybe she could do that for Perry? After all, he is marginally better candidate than McCain.
