I'm not sure who it is you support that makes you so much smarter than all of us, but I know that I've seen too many people on here get highly emotionally invested in a candidate and then go off the deep end.

There are FReepers with whom I was friendly for years who now turn their noses up at me because I didn't fall down and worship Sarah Palin and then follow the lemmings over to Herman Cain. And they're still miffed because they were unable to intimidate me in to doing so. Sad to say, these people have now earned my disdain and contempt.

Don't get me wrong; I liked Palin and I certainly would have voted for Cain if he'd stayed in and gotten the nomination, despite some reservations. But the screechy, almost cultish behavior of some on here was disgusting to watch.

Would I like to see someone like Jim DeMint in there or maybe even Paul Ryan? You betcha.

The reality is that we've got the field that's there and in my opinion, Governor Perry has the strongest combination of conservatism and valid leadership experience. He's far from perfect, but we could do a hell of a lot worse.

None of them are perfect. But reading some of the folks on here over the past few months, you'd think one or two of them (who are not in the current field) were gods.

We suffered enough worshipful threads on those folks, and in fact are still seeing worshipful threads on one of ‘em, so you really need to be more fair about this. There's no need for you to tell some other FReeper what to do, particularly when it's based solely on bias. You don't own this place and neither do I.
