There’s still a lot of time for Perry to turn things around in NH. Amply can change in 5 months.
You're a kidder.
W got 29% in 2000, Perry is W the second, it's not happening.
An actual conservative might poll better against Romney, but maybe not. Romney lives in my town part of the time, and he's been very very good to the GOP "leaders", who still run a very tight ship. Plus, he's a nice guy, a good neighbor, and looks the part.
Looking to RINO-ness to explain why he will probably win isn't right. He's a RINO, all right, but culturally and organizationally he's in sync with the Republicans who run the show here.
