Perry has some problems to overcome. Not sure he can. That said, if he’s the last man standing against Romney, I’ll support him. At least he does have sufficient executive experience and the majority of the Texas voters like him well enough to continue reelecting him and he has done a pretty good job with the economy in Texas despite Obama and the Marxist democrats. And he’s a pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-America veteran patriot! Other than his in-state tuition fiasco, he does have a lot going for him.
Hope he succeeds. I love TEXAS!!
Maybe with a little love from conservatives we can help change his mind.’
Perry is strong states rights guy and certainly won’t be advocating it for any other state and certainly not on the national level.
Perry also supports Arizona’s right to handle their immigration problems the way they see fit.
Jim,
Here’s how I see Perry.
I will support any conservative candidate, who is at least 85% conservative.
All the other candidates and the moderators spent the past month beating on Perry.
He was vetted by fire. Frankly, he had the crap beaten out of him and now, it’s all
out there. I disagree with him on just a handful of issues. They are important issues
to me, but he covers most of what I need.
Frankly, I don’t think he knew how to handle multiple adversaries simultaneously. I hope
he can get better. Being thoroughly vetted and attacked early is a positive thing, if you
can survive.
RINOmney hasn’t gotten beat on yet. People will not begin to take a second look at him.
The conservative vote shifted or coalesced around Cain - and now he will be vetted.
In this election, I don’t see any candidate who is a “corporate” guy being anything but
the perfect foil for Obama’s “corporate greed” message. RINOmney would be a great punching
bag and sorry to say, but so would Cain. Cain has the added distinction of never having
been elected to anything, including dog catcher. That doesn’t give me the confidence he
knows how to win a campaign.
His corporate background too, is a different skillset than leading a government body.
RINOmney is simply a non-starter for me, no matter who he would choose as his VP - we saw
how that went with McCain.
Perry, despite my disagreements with him, knows how to run a campaign and win, knows how to raise
money, is a tough, hard-working guy, etc. Congress will have to be a firewall on those issues I
disagree with him about.
I would vote for Cain, if it comes to that. I won’t vote for RINOmney.
