Cristy is Pro life and that is the first thing I look at for any potential runner
Yeah I do, he started to send out feelers for weeks until he got in, I see no sign Cristie is doing that and I think it’s too late for a new entry.
As a Perry supporter at this point, I agree with you 100%!!
That philosophy is what has lead us to a bunch of misfits and miscreants in the Republican Congress. Let the campaigns forge ahead and shake out. If Christie wants in, fine. He can be judged against the backdrop of the whole menu if candidates we have. But while we’re at it, let’s clean those misfits and miscreants from the Republican side of both houses of the Congress. We dwell on RIFing the RATs and don’t pay enough attention to the RINOs. A new Republican President will be a big step in the right direction, but not the final answer so long as we have all these old “country club” Republicans continuing to consume oxygen, particularly those old farts in the Senate!
Let’s try to avoid eating our own.
You’ve apparently missed all of the anti-Perry threads on FR.
He’s not our own. He is a Rockefeller Republican if there ever was one. AWOL on Obamacare Repeal. Weak on social issues. Backing Mike Castle in DE. Backing the Ground Zero Mosque. Pro Illegal immigration. The list is long on his establishment ideals.
What was the deal with Perry’s story about lobbying for the HPV vaccine by the 31 year old cancer victim? I only heard the criticism of his story, which reminded me of Hillary’s tale about being shot at after landing in an area of conflict.
That is very damning.
I don’t think FR folks have found the ONE they want to support - right now all they want is to make ZERO look bad, thus the ONE will be whoever does that job best and makes the MSM go wee wee wee all the way home.
This is a pretty evenhanded article about it...
Christie is a liberal republican. Check his record. Supports gun control, higher taxes, gay unions, squishy on life, etc. I’ll not support him. Nor Romney. Nor Huntsman.
