Rick Perry is an Al Gore-worshipping confederate.

Do you truly believe Rick Perry worships Al Gore?

What is your opinion of Santorum after he made this statement:
‘Trim Social Security now even if painful’

http://www.fox28.com/story/16464484/santorum-trim-social-security-now-even-if-painful

When Santorum’s statement was posted in a thread on FR (with some 400 replies), as reported by AP, many said it was not true. He could not have said that.
What do you think?

Santorum is just OK. Like Perry, but Newt’s The One.

I have to say Newt, as I believe he has the best chance of not only beating Obama but in reworking the Federal Govt., downsizing it and reworking it for the 21st Century.

Newt. Strong command of the issues, thick-skinned battler who will not be thrown off his game by the media.

Newt has what it takes to take Obama and the left down.

AND the Republican Establishment - which is now infiltrated with Socialists.

Which is why they are all coming at Newt like the Hounds Of Baskerville.

We get in there and fight with and for him - and our very survival - or live under Socialism.

That simple

Newt, best chance of beating Romney, and then on to Obama.
the other two need to get together and throw their support behind Newt, and Michelle Bachman should do the same. Denco
