Do you REALLY think Perry even knows how to put on a ringtone?...much less had anything to do with it?

I think it was his call, since he's out there talking it up. I know some of his campaign people tell him what to say, but I think in this instance it's his decision.

In your "heartless" you know Perry is right!

Actually I think that Perry and Gingrich probably shouldn't have attacked on this. There are many things they can attack Romney on. It's not going to help them in South Carolina.

This feels too much like them jumping on something, anything, because they are desperate to slow him down. I'm all for them stopping Romney by any means possible, but this won't do the trick. The people who support Romney have sold their souls to the devil and know him for the vile RINO that he is. They aren't going to change anybody's minds with this attack.

In fact, I think it's dumb as Hell that Gingrich and Perry are staking their campaigns on South Carolina, seeing as how it's an open primary in a year when the Democrats have an incumbent and have a huge incentive to crossover to the Republican primary and vote for the least electable candidate, which is Romney.

The GOP in SC is filing lawsuits and legislation to end SC being an open primary, but it's too late for 2012. Romney and RuPaul will benefit from crossover voters, and then what? Perry made all those claims about SC and how important it is to his campaign, and same with Gingrich, and both of them will probably underperform the polls when the votes are counted thanks to crossover Democrats voting for Romney.

If that's true then what attack is going to work? The Bain stuff is probably the best attack available on his electability since it can be used in the general election, unlike attacks "from the right."

That should be a link to the old 1994 ad that Ted Kennedy had but didn't use when he ran against Romney. This is from Utube, MSNBC...Chris Matthews was showing...I don't know when. If you have seen "When Romney came to town" (I haven't seen all of it yet) you will know that one of the companies Mitt bought, borrowed money on, bankrupted, and took the borrowed money and ran was in SC.

People lost not only their jobs and benefits but their pensions. I don't have a clue how many companies Bain bought and did this way...but...

It's apparently what Perry referred to as "Vulture capital" ...vs Venture capital. What I really think...If there is a way to screw things up, Repubs, conservatves can figure out a way to do it!
