No, instead voters will elect a corrupt Texan who can't coherently string three words together.

Yes, that's what voters are looking for as their next President: a cross between Joe Isuzu and Elmer Gantry who pushes open borders and “pay-to-play.”

You're just SOL these past few presidential elections, aren't you. First McCain, and now the choice of Perry or Romney. Going to suck to be you come 11/2012.

Perry 2012.

You-nailed-it bump.

I just share JimRob's reservations about Cain's 9-9-9 .... becoming 20-20-20 and hello, VAT, to reload and rescrew the retirees and bring them all hobbling out of retirement, looking for work they can still do and getting paid 25 cents on the dollar for it, so they can pay their taxes and eat.

I think that's what the NWO and bankster types want. With all the screwing around with Social Security that's been going on, and "we've got to raise the retirement age" articles showing up in trained-monkey middlebrow opinion rags (like The Economist, which dedicated a whole issue to "back to work"), it really sounds "like a plan".

It's like a boss who won't give his hands time off to die. "You owe me! We've got work to do!"

Perry's phony PR about raising $17M "overnight" is a ploy to jumpstart his dead campaign. Hypothetically, 20,000 donors gave $100---that equals $2 million. The FEC better scrutinize Perry's campaign reports---some individual donors may have donated to Perry and don't even know it (/snix).

So where did $15 million come from? Texas cronies, special interests, big business looking for favors?

============================================

Perry has raised truckloads of money for years preparing for his presidential foray. Perry got into the race with hundreds of millions of dollars, and multiple political PACS, teeming with money.

There's "Americans for Rick Perry" for starters.

Perry's Super Pac raised $55 million just by saying he WAS NOT running.

“Texans for Rick Perry” committee is a $102 million slush fund he uses at will. Some PAC mega-donors paid in $100,000 each in order to influence Perry's official actions. “Texans for Rick Perry” committee paid for posh family trips to the Bahamas, Amsterdam, Madrid, out of campaign contributions.

Perry's "Make Us Great Again PAC" raised millions to flood Iowa, and other early voting states, with ads promoting their boy.

========================================

No candidate has a more corrupt history of allocating tax grants and using his office to give favors to mega donors than Rick Perry.....

One Texas news report titled “The Governor’s Gusher,” documents 100 wealthy donors who “have sought corporate welfare, relaxed regulatory rules or other government favors” in exchange for their political largess in Texas gubernatorial races. A disturbing number of these profiteers made a fortune off government handouts or by bending or breaking regulatory rules.

A recent bill pushed through the Texas Legislature benefited Waste Control Specialists, a company owned by #2 donor to Perry, Harold Simmons. Just days after the bill was signed into law, Simmons wrote a $100,000 check to "Americans for Rick Perry, " another of Perry's presidential PACs.

Another donor paid Perry nearly $8 million in campaign contributions, and, in 2003, sought and received, his own regulatory agency called "The Texas Residential Construction Commission"

One of these shady transaction needs rigorous scrutiny---one Perryman gave the RepubGovAssoc a million----then the RGA wrote two checks to Perry totaling a million, which he did not declare as per campaign laws.

Rick Perry----the Prudential Candidate---do you own a piece of the Rick?
