....what to make of Rick Perry’s race so far: 1. He got pushed into signing up by supporters 2. He listened to all his fans, put on his running shoes and took off in a full sprint with no race plan or real knowledge of the course..............

Oh, please.....amazing how many swallowed the Perry Kool-Aid.

Look at the actual facts:

(1) Perry has been raising money for years to run; he entered the race with three PACs (that we know of)......teeming with money.

(2) Perry cunningly did not actually enter the first contest---the Iowa Straw Poll----instead he calculatedly manipulated the vote from Texas. That was supposed to take him over the top. He got a pathetic 700 write-ins----but there he was front and center, posing in front of Iowa banners---waving the victory sign----as if he was the winner.

He stomped all over Bachmann's first place win with 4000 votes---she worked long and hard and spent money in the state.

"Team player" Perry threw his hat in the very day Bachmann won---stopping her hard-earned momentum.

For Perry---it's been downhill ever since the debates. Some of us thought he can't sink any lower, but with Anita's help........who knows?

To: All
Perry is oblivious to that fact that voters are wary of a losing candidate with money to burn. Perry's deluge of Fox ads News cost him $975,000; he's spent $2.8 million on ads the last few weeks alone, begging for support in Iowa, NH and SC.......far more than any other candidate in the race.

Perry has engineered the losingest strategy in presidential politics, to date: personally insulting and demeaning the people he needs to vote for him; cueing his supporters to insult and demean them; showing his contempt for the process.

And he has the gall to ask for support?

Perry's three ads -- a bio spot, an anti-Obama spot, and even one stupidly characterizing himself as an "outsider" ---- are ludicrous.

All of Perry's moves show his utter contempt for voters and for the American electoral process. Long past time for a candidate polling in single digits to wake up to reality and go home.

Maybe he’s getting punished for the nasty dirty trick he pulled on Bachmann.

*** Oh, please.....amazing how many swallowed the Perry Kool-Aid. ***

Here's what I'm getting about Perry's race so far:

  1. He got pushed to enter alright but not by 'supporters', but by his wife.
  2. Yeah, he listened to his 'fans'. 'Fans' being his wife.
  3. And yep he put on his running shoes, after his wife told him too.
  4. And for sure he had no plan because his wife didn't tell him what is was or why he was there.
Seriously, with the pictures of her posted on this thread she reminds me of some conniving *witch* you'd see on an episode of 'Law and Order ____' (fill in blank) who naturally turns out to be the Murderer in the end.

Or maybe more aptly she's like Angela Lansbury and the 'The Queen of Hearts' in The Manchurian Candidate. LaRaza Ricky being the brainwashed Laurence Harvey. And all the Perrybots haven't drank Kool-Aid, they're the brain-washed Army Patrol members who were with Harvey when captured by the commies.

Now I don't like 'picking on' the wives of politicians(1) -- until THEY become the 'co-candidate'. At that point all bets are off as it's apparent we'd be voting for a 'Two-For-One'. Like Billy-Jeff & Hitlery, Barry & Moose-Hell and now LaRaza Rick and Anita.
(That's why Laura Bush had and has, Class and a lot of it. A real Lady all the way)

(1) Or women in general. It isn't the gentlemanly thing to do.
(guess I'm a Chauvinist, besides being 'heartless' and a 'bigot')
