WOW it looks like someone ‘who’s in the know’ agree with you.
Have you seen this quote from Ari Fleischer CNN:
“I don’t understand this election at all, Republicans always go for the most Conservative guy running, in this case Rick Perry, i mean he has been throwing them red meat, but for whatever strange reason, this election they seem to be drawn to the most un-Republican guys running, like Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich, and i don’t think that plays to their strength, I think it plays to Obama’s strength, and I think the White House is loving it.”
