Boy, you're fast. Yet another Perrypost, even as people are still foolishly replying to your previous Perrypost ........ Perry is a RiNO tool. Bottom line. Any conservative that rallies to Perry, gets screwed. End of story.

Is Perry more electable than Romney? "GOP regulars claim the "electability argument" will deliver the Republican nomination to Mitt Romney. They say things like, "Mitt Romney can win the general election by appealing to the middle. Rick Perry can't win in the suburbs of Philadelphia and Milwaukee."

Simple enough -- but wrong. Romney's no stronger on this front than Perry, the frontrunner in the polls. The core reasons: Perry's support among the party's base, and his strength on the key issues of the economy and job creation.........[big snip]............Perhaps in a normal year, the more moderate candidate would be the more electable one. But in these times, the GOP needs bold colors, not pale pastels, to win. "

admittedly...I don’t know much about Perry. why do you say he’s a rino?

I wish we could have a “Rick Perry Caucus” as compared to articles on Rick Perry. Then, maybe, we could avoid running into the usual fanatical Perry enthusiasts.

Who forced you to click the link and read the thread?

FWIW, Perry is unapologetically pro life, 2A, and States Rights, and speaks the truth about social security. Can’t say that about all our recent GOP Presidents.

I’m not seeing a lot of equivocating on positions like SS even when it would be convenient.
