Really? I must be looking at the wrong polls because what I see is that the Tea Party candidate is ahead in virtually every state except NH.
Yup. The debate format sucks. They will need to get their message out daily. Perry has more money to make ads, while Cain is better at getting on TV shows. May the best conservative win. And sorry Newt, you blew the AGW issue big time.
Perry isn’t going to touch AGW because it is close to Al Gore. He wants us to forget he was a high level Al Gore operative.
“Barack Hussein Obama has clotted the executive branch with unaccountable czars... Among the most alarming of these malevolent lunatics is Science Czar John Holdren, a participant in ClimateGate who has advocated de-developing America and putting sterilants in the public water supply
Holdren has also spoken in favor of forced abortions, confiscation of babies, targeted as well as mass involuntary sterilization, bureaucratic regulation of family size, and global authoritarian government...”
A vote for romney is just taking the foot off the gas and coasting towards the cliff.
the only ones I see making a U-Turn are Cain, Bachman, and Santorum.
Gingrich, would be better than Romney for sure.
The others: Huntsman, and Perry would just tap the brakes a bit but the car would still roll over the cliff.
Ron Paul would just crank the wheel while stepping onthe gas causing the car to roll and then roll off the cliff in a spectacular crash.
The reason Perry and Cain are not double-teaming Romney is because it wouldn’t do any good. The 20% or so of Republicans that support Romney already know he passed Romneycare, believes in AGW, etc. They support him anyways, and harping about these conservative issues they don’t care about will not erode Romney’s base of support.
Perry and Cain both need to knock the other one out of the race if they want to wrap up the conservative wing of the party. THEN, they will be able to go toe to toe with Romney without having another strong conservative candidate sniping at them from the sidelines.
Romney still has a chance to walk away from his AGW ideas. If he doesn’t I cannot vote for him.
