Gov. Rick Perry is back in the saddle.
Zeroing in on Mitt Romney like a prairie varmint and telling Herman Cain that they'll be "bumpin' tax plans" soon, Perry rode back into the middle of the Republican presidential race Tuesday night with some of his old swagger and his saddlebags still full of cash.
Ten weeks and four more TV debates away from the Iowa caucuses and the launch of election season, Perry remains the Anti-Romney.
If you're a Republican who can't stomach a former Massachusetts governor as the nominee, Perry has $17 million to win your vote between now and spring.

I guess Perry doesn’t get it...
Cain’s NST is a detractor... NOT the reason he is out in front.
Perry’s just not very smart.
It's on the record. This Leopard can't change his spots, (Or stripes if you are ALGORE.)
Another magic 80/20 rule: 80% of your business is generated by 20% of your customers.
I like Cain, and I’m also liking Newt. Cain seems to be the outsider with fresh ideas, a huge heart, and fire in his belly. Newt is the former insider, with much wisdom gained from all his mistakes. I love it when he gets the chance to speak in these debates. The knowledge, wisdom and statesmanship just pours out of him. I hope people give him a second look. Nobody on that stage is without flaw.
I think either Cain or Newt could easily beat Obama, and be the kind of President that this country needs right now.
Perry's campaign is on life suport -- literally. The more time passes the more he drops. Yet his fangirls are pretending he's on a comback? lol!
Having faith, hope and desire is one thing but ignoring reality only makes one look foolish.
Yes I have. Mitt went after him about his 999 plan. I was waiting for Cain to ask him ‘where’s your plan’?
lol! We have. The author of this thread has posted from every liberal rag she can find -- all in a failed attempt to revive interest in La Raza Rick Perry's train wreck of a campaign.
This is a a partial list.

The article says nothing about Perry making a comeback.
Not the part posted, for sure.
Clarity posted the article. Clarity didn’t write the article or publish it. And the article makes a point only about Perry’s degree of “gung ho-ness” if you will, compared to previous debates.
Not one word from anyone I’ve read about a comeback.
Girls? Aren’t any “girls” posting for Perry.
You pitched your own balls to yourself and struck yourself out.
A la Bugs Bunny...
The only way that Romney can be stopped is if votes are not split between two or more candidates.
We did that in 2008 with Huckabee, Thompson, Romney etc. and got John McCain.
Lets not repeat that mistake again.
Newt has big baggage like his support of the liberal GOP congressional candidate Dede Scozzafava against a conservative candidate in upstate New York a few yearsa ago.
And your joke about my balls was neither witty or accurate. All it did was reveal you to be one classless act. But that doesn't surprise me, most 3%ers are.
Have a nice night.
Yes. Yes it is.
If the alternative is closing 100% of the restaurants, what do you suggest?
That's how it gets done in the real world. It's the private sector where profits matter, where you can't print money out of thin air, you must compete to survive, where you can't tax your way to prosperity.
How many have been employed by Godfathers in the 20 years since he saved the company?
I felt the same way about Newt before I read this:

I agree that he’s a very flawed man, but I think he is the very best person out there running able to express to the American people the huge gulf between Obama’s America and the America we all love & cherish. All of these candidates have flaws. Some more glaring than others. What we don’t want is to get stuck with someone without vision. That’s not Gingrich. (Remember the Contract with America.) It’s not Cain either. I’d be happy with either one.
between Perry and Cain, I prefer Cain, but am not "anti-Perry" -- I AM very, very much anti-Romney.
Note -- he shut down branches that were underperforming and concentrated on those that WERE performing. That is supporting the existing business. The alternative would be that ALL the branches would be shut down. Which is preferable?
Yes, it doesn't directly translate into public sector at first glance, but if you look at this, we have a lot of areas that government should just NOT be in and have a huge budget deficit. Cut the flab from government. That is what Cain can do.
That is smart by Cain. The others are just playing on emotions "oh we'll cut 5%" -- they make cut 5% from something that is really needed and for something that is useless they will leave 95%...
Perry is a Dope,he keeps spewing setup lines for Romney to knock out of the park. I have heard people say that Bachman,Cain ,Gingrich are just in this race to split the Conservative Vote so Romney will skate right in,I think these people are wrong,Perry is the one who is Making Romney look like Reagan. We are Screwed folks
Oh, I get it--you believe it is much better to provide government bailouts to failing businesses.
One more time: The last thing we need is another tongue-tied Texan POTUS.
