Perry will not be the nominee. In order; Cain, Gingrich, Santorum. Nothing follows.

Cain: Zero governing experience. Has never won a single election in his entire life.

Gingrich: The highest polling Negatives of any candidate.

Santorum: Just got noticed last night.

As it stands now, unless Perry gets his act together and engages in serious debate preparation, Romney is currently in the driver's seat.

Yeah, but I think Romney has a ceiling kind of like Ron Paul. You see Ron Paul pulling respectable percentages in polls but you know he can't get any higher.

Remembering that Juan McCain beat Romney before demonstrates Romney's limited appeal. Romney could get a temporary lift from Perry's fall but after a while people will remember why they chose even Juan McCain ahead of Romney. I'm not convinced Romney can break out from the RINO segment of the Republican primary voters.

I don’t like Romney. I don’t trust Romney. Romney however does not spend his time on national tv in a debate personally attacking me.

Perry has twice now.
