He has screwed himself regarding his bowing to illegals and foreign policy.

If it doesn’t work out for Rick maybe he can try running for president of Mexico.

What Perry can’t do in the debates, he will succeed in doing with MASSIVE ads.

No worries, we are electing a president, not a debate captain.

Announcing that conservatives that don’t want in-state for illegals are “heartless” is sure to help in the primaries. lol. His opponents should use that in their commercials.

Since rino Perry calls us “heartless”, we should not even consider voting for him.

He might have blown it. I believe people are starting to write him off en masse.

Romney is now the prohibitive favorite. We lose even if we win.

The GOP has screwed itself again.

“No worries, we are electing a president, not a debate captain.”

Nice spin, but let’s face it...he stunk on ice tonite. Looked like there was no substance, not just no style. And you think debates don’t count? Really?

I think Perry should run against Obama IN A DEMOCRAT PRIMARY.

Perry was definitely channeling his inner Lindsey Graham tonight.

Apparently, that bill went through with a veto-proof majority.

Perry might be better off debating en espagnol. In english, not so much.

did he call Obama “heartless” ??

or does he reserve that for conservatives like a good rino?

He simply acts like he is in pain. He was the same last week. He had back surgery the end of July and this is still too early for someone who had recent back surgery to stand up front for two hours. Severe pain also affects your thought processes. I am not excusing him, just believe that I have made the correct observation. I also saw him at a major speech in Virginia, and there was no problem. Some people are not debaters. That does not mean that he would not do a good job. I simply can’t vote for Romney and don’t think the others could beat Obama. So Perry it is for me, come hell or high water.

Perry must be saying to himself-Can I take my toys and go home!? How he ever thought he could win the base???????? Anyone but Obama, must be the logic, I guess. He is just another branch of Rove’s compassionate conservatism.

Yeah.

A guy with a great record on guns, abortion, taxes, spending, business regulation, job creation, etc. definitely has no place in the Republican Party.

No one watches these debates. heck, I am a political junky who lives and breathes this stuff 12 hours a day and I almost missed watching it!

The debates are good practice for the candidates, and an opportunity to sort of introduce themselves to the public a bit, but that’s about it. If they were as important as some here seem to be claiming then Cain and Gingrich would be skyrocketing in the polls, instead of lanquishing in the low single digits.

“No worries, we are electing a president, not a debate captain.”

That might be true against anyone other than Obama. I’m sorry but that man is the smoothest talker. Look at all the people he fooled.
