” Perry isn’t a conservative but nice try. “ <<<<

Perry is whoever he wants to be and very good at it. He brings plenty of Tea to the ticket, but can also sweep up the Independents who will decide this race. The 2012 electorate is desperate for income and the only issue they’re going to be bringing to the ballot box is fiscal conservatism. Texas is EXHIBIT A. If Christie is on the ticket with him, Obama is gone, and the depression begins to end. Does that matter to anyone, anywhere. Hello-oo? Anybody there?

You put those two on the ticket and you will drive the conservative base away in droves.

That ticket doesn't have a chance in Hell of winning the General election.

Wow. A Perry/Christie ticket would be very strong. The media would despise them.

As much as I despise him and how he's tried to sell us down the river, or rather over the river (the Rio Grande to be precise), he is an incredibly smooth politician. He can address a LULAC state convention and rain down all kinds of praise on them, he can go to Mexico and bash the US Congress for not passing a guest worker bill, but then talk about being tough on illegal immigrant. He can talk about being pro-life or pro-2nd Amendment but still support a pro-abortion and pro-gun control candidate for President. He can criticize Romneycare even after he talked about bi-national health insurance for Mexicans and Texans. He can complain that Obama hasn't secured the border just a few years after he said the federal government's plan for a border wall was "idiocy". He can be all things to all people.

He could have given Bill Clinton a run for his money at his peak, the man is slick. McCain got around 33% of the electoral votes, and I have no doubt that Perry could do better.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but this depression will not end by putting another corrupt anti-American, open-borders, pro-amnesty, off-shoring, globalist RINO back in the White House.

Perry is no conservative, and neither is Chris Christie.
