So now the latest attack on Perry is, don’t nominate him because you will wake up the sleeping left and they will be energized to re-elect Obama. Good strategy..... not!

Certainly has a 1980 feel to it, though Perry is NO Reagan.

They should be afraid. Perry’s in his fourth term as governor of Texas, and has never lost an election in his life. He’s not perfect, but he’s clearly a dire threat to Barack Obama. And to a lot of the other Republican candidates, who are largely flawed themselves or lightweights by comparison.

...It's funny because many conservatives -- not just the dreaded establishment!...

Newsflash!! Conservatives have not been the "establishment" for decades.

While many on the right criticize Perry’s prior Democratic credentials - that could also be used to persuade current disaffected democrats that they too can “come to Jesus”.

Perry can empathize with the average Dem that he once, like them, believed the Dem Party was for middle class Americans and free market concepts.

He should stress that he came to the realization that he could no longer support the Dem Party in the direction it was headed and is both dismayed and appalled at the blatant anti-American, Marxist, socialist perversion that its leaders now represent.

I am a libertarian leaning conservative. I can vote for Perry especially over RinoRom. Is he everything I want? No but combined with an ever more conservative house it will work.

SCOTUS appointments are not worth holding out for my perfect candidate.

No kidding. I overheard a group of older, upper middle class Jewish people in a restaurant last night talking about how “scary” Rick Perry was. There is obviously no thinking going on - too many people just absorb and repeat the media’s DNC talking points.

The leftist idiots and Media (same thing), had already hand picked Mitt Romney, ROFL. They just knew he would be the nominee, then along come RICK to upset their apple cart. Heard today Rush speak of Steppie Boy being a new best friend of Mitt, that aught to help you Mitt. lol

I for one just love it. For once we will pick our own, thank you.

How much are some of Perry’s biggest donors paying to hype the idea in the media that GOPers should get behind him because the Obama handlers are afraid of him.

Nothing like a good scare story to drive the sheeple into a corral.

Full disclosure - I am not yet getting fully behind ANY GOP POTUS contender and I am least inclined to supporting Romney most of all.

So far, I like Perry.

But second on the ticket.

“Everyone’s terrified of Rick Perry:”

Is that the case, the truth or just a Liberal media meme?

I am not so much against Perry, nor for Perry as I am against Conservatives taking candidate positions - pro or con - in reaction to anything that comes out of the Liberal media.
