When you hear every single liberal media outlet in the country say, "We will know more about Rick Perry after we vet his 11 years in office," you need to understand that what they vindictively mean is: "President Obama and his followers will be proud of us after we are done with the mother of all smearing campaigns against the conservative governor of Texas."
Not since Ronald Reagan has a Republican candidate for president evoked such outright fear and loathing from the mainstream media and the far-left.
They are flat-out petrified of Perry and are desperately trying to kill off his candidacy before it can take hold. Why?
Simple. As they suspiciously heap praise on the likes of Jon Huntsman and even Mitt Romney, they increasingly worry that Perry has the best chance to defeat their handpicked socialist messiah now occupying the Oval Office.
With exactly that mission in mind, an editor of a major newspaper told me: "We plan to declare war on Rick Perry and do all in our power to crush him."

I see his poll numbers now and look who had them at this point and see they were not even in the race at the end. So I don’t take Perry’s poll numbers near as seriously as some here. I think there is more than a year to go. I see Sarah Palin getting in and winning. If she does not get in or gets in and does not win. I will look at it then. Not going to do the McCain thing again and from down here in Texas Perry looks like the same guy we elected as governor because he talked SO conservative. Then when it was time to SHOW UP and back UP. He failed. The economy in Texas is not good. It may be better than most but was before him and will be after him. It’s because we have a better business climate and NO income tax. It’s not because of Bush or Perry. Sorry for the rant. I could go on but wife is giving me dirty looks...
What this means is that he will win in 2012......If I have to hold my nose, I will.....I won’t for Romney under any circumstances. I now believe that SP is too late to the prom.
If Myth is the won that drops into third that works for me.
Me too. A third there and what if he lost New Hampshire? He’d be done.
