We should know by now party registration doesn't tell the whole story.
Perry's been a Republican longer than Reagan had been when he ran in 1980.

no doubt romney would be more comfortable than perry with
the democrat plantation of feminists, gays, criminals, enviro’s, and zoo specimens.
This is why the New Hampshire Primary should be closed.
“....but Romney has a well-known history of more liberal positions on health care, climate change, gay rights and abortion.”
Enogh Said.
Florida is an open primary, isn’t it?
This is funny, because Perry was a Democrat even during the Reagan years, and the Romney’s have been Repubicans since the FDR days.
Milbank is so out of touch he doesn't appreciate that almost anyone outside the Beltway would admire a man shooting a coyote that was threatening his dog.
No. Florida does not have an open primary, but the dems have up to thirty days before an election to change parties if they want to vote in the republican primary in our state.
So if they change parties to vote in the primary...then they can vote in the general for whoever, right?
Because this is the corrupt "Two-Party Cartel".
It seems like Rush Limbaugh opened that Pandora’s Box with his “Operation Chaos” in the 2008 Dem primaries.
It tells me they're afraid of Perry. This is how we got McCain - by picking apart all the other choices. If Sarah's going to get in, she's got to do it NOW; otherwise, we have to get behind Perry asap.
Axlegrease knows that Baraq has no chance in a 2-way matchup.
He only got 53% last time with EVERYTHING going for him.
So the plan is to get Mitty nominated via the Dems version of Op Chaos, spark a Tea Party challenger on the ballot in most states, and win with a Clintonian plurality.

Of course, a person of any party or no party can vote for anyone on the ballot in the general election.
I laugh at this, because Rick Perry is polling very high numbers from hispanics. You know why.
Romney has been rising in the polls. The Dems were attacking him when he was a front-runner, and will again if he regains the advantage. Romney is also polling better than Perry vs Obama. Some of the reasoning used here just does not line up with reality. The Dems don’t want the Republican to win NO MATTER WHO HE IS.
The Left will work to depress the GOP vote (w/ a Romney nomination) which will inhibit 2012 GOP voter TURN OUT (which they KNOW is softening for their team) and set up as many places where fraudulent voting will help (and they're fighting the voter ID bills passed in TX, GA and WI).
