I have good news and bad news for conservatives. But the good news and the bad news are both the same thing: We have six very impressive, lifelong conservative candidates running for the presidency.
They are the smartest candidates, the most principled candidates, the most patriotic candidates, the most persuasive candidates, and the candidates with the best ideas.
The problem lies in the fact that conservatives do not have a single favorite candidate. They have six favorite candidates! And as long as they remain split between each of their six “favorite” candidates, they will eventually help nominate Mitt Romney — the very candidate they least trust on the issues.
...
There is only one scenario where this can be stopped: Evangelical and tea party conservatives must immediately unite behind Texas Gov. Rick Perry. Rick Perry is the most conservative candidate who is also electable. Perry is our last and best hope to send a solid conservative to the White House.

It's not La Raza Rick Perry's debate performances that killed his campaign but the issue of his pandering to ILLEGAL invaders and his inability to logically defend it.
Agreed, but you won’t convince the “kill them illegals” crowd.
Read “This is Herman Cain”,, and you will see why why he is exactly the man we need at this time. If Romney couldn’t beat McCain, how does anyone think he can beat Obama? You might take a look at 2 Thessalonians 2, then Google The White Horse Prophecy. We really need to do our homework before voting in the primaries.
Cain is marvelous. Perry is less than stellar, but he is a conservative politician. My fear is that although Cain is extrememly smart, he does not have a politicians instinct to work with other politicians. He will be fighting an uphill battle before he starts. My dream ticket is Perry/Cain with Herman pulling the heavy load and Perry helping to grease the skids. Romney is just Barry lite and that has not been working for anyone. When good is bad, not must be the choice.
Can't we at least get through a few of the primaries before settling on one of the candidates? Otherwise, why even bother with the primaries?
The man cannot hold his own in a debate. The democrat candidate and his allies in the media will make mincemeat out of him.
He didnt help when we were trying toput up the wall. and he was so compassionate to wet backs in a recent debate. he is a part of the W. Bush thing that David Hill mentiioned.

Perish the thought! We need to pray that Herman Cain is divinely protected from any harm or illness. And that his path is cleared to victory.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rush just said that this is no time to move for the moderate candidate, that this is the time to go for the most conservative candidate that we can find. Who do you think that is? Who is the MOST conservative candidate who is running for the Republican nomination?
If voters want soft on ILLEGAL ALIENS, they can vote for Obama. As for me and mine; Herman Cain is going to get our vote here in NH because unlike Perry, he is in reality the "Best Hope for a Solid Conservative."
"Oh, but he has no money", you say... that is ok, once the genuine grass-roots movement, the Tea Party gets behind him, that will change.
Exactly!
The thought of Perry on a national stage, live on television, debating Obama...
[shudder!]
My sympathies to Perry supporters, because he is unlikely to come back. I went through the same disappointment with Duncan Hunter, but this time a progressive fraud isn’t our only choice left.
“Who is the MOST conservative candidate who is running for the Republican nomination?”
Cain and Bachmann.
I am not a one issue voter. I think that's stupid. But if I was, it would be guns, and Myth's record is he has signed gun bans, and supports reinstating the Clinton "assault weapons" ban. As for illegals, Myth has no "record".
Well I wish Rick would hurry up and introduce us to him or her.
