That is the most out of touch comment I've read lately.
The Bushes are and have been supporters of Romney from the gitgo.
FReepers who thoink there is a commection between Perry and the Bushes and Rove are... are equally as stu...out to lunch.
I don’t even pretend to dabble or understand Texan power structure, or politics.
I was born and raised in NJ, educated in Colorado ( 4 years), and have been an adult and professional for about 7 years in Manhattan, now. I turned 30 yesterday!
In a literal geographic sense I am a NE conservative, but it is funny my values seem to be more in-line with Texans and the heartland. WHY? because they are Constituional ones lol!
Thus this “Northeastern Manhattanite Republican” won’t be supporting Mitt in any election, in any way, ever.
I must say, as an outsider I am not thrilled with Perry. His record is really strong on a lot of my priorities, but not immigration. I always also thought it was weird that a NE (Connecticut I think they are from?) CC Republican family like the Bushes were so dominate in Texas. I would have assumed there would have been a pretty tough as nails structure already in place since the day of 1800.
I want you folks to put up a fortress wall and anything less is just not cutting it for me =). I’ll gladly come down and help ya’ll with the work.
