Palin is out of it, her choice, and I believe nothing will get her back in.

Perry, unfortunately has been bashed to political death by purported 'conservatives' - proving that far too many who claim conservatism are ill informed political idiots.

I agree with the author of this piece - Perry has the right mix of personal Christian beliefs and laudable executive experience. But with Perry out of the race we have only second and third-best candidates with greater flaws and bad-baggage than Perry to choose from.

We now face the very real possibility that Obama will remain in office, quite simply because Romney will most likely - at this point - be the nominee. Romney will cause enough 'conservatives' to revolt that the GOP will lose another election.

I say get out there and campaign for Perry. Why accept second best?

But with Perry out of the race

Perry is not out of the race.
