Hallelujah! I've been waiting for Perry to make any kind of a statement on this. This is a great start!! No exchanges, no Medicaid expansion.

If someone is looking to relocate to another state, moving to one that isn’t going to implement the demands of Obamacare would be a smart idea.

"I think Governor Scott in Florida has said the same."

He sure did. And he meant it.

So has my governor, Jindal. Let’s just hope that these states keep Republican governors for a long time to come. By not expanding Medicaid, what does that mean to me, a normal person who has never been on government assistance? I am currently 64, and would be on Medicare next year anyway. Does this mean that people can still go to their doctors the way they used to?

Lead the way Big Texas!

OK, AL, UT and other relieable red states can’t be far behind. My MO should be in there too, very soon; even our POS trial lawyer (D) governor is not thrilled with thieving ZuluCare ...

Has Gov. Kasich (OH) made any comment on this yet?

Talk up the vote to throw the kenyan out of the WhiteyHut in November! I am not in love with Mitt, but he's a lot better than what we have now and the really bad stuff nobama will do if reelected. This is the best way to get rid of this socialist scheme and all the gubmit thieves stealing from us in epic proportions.

God bless these Republican governors! Here in The People's Socialist Republik of Connecticut, our 'RAT governor and legislature *can't wait* to get those exchanges going in order to implement ObamaCare. Ugh...

Doesn’t the Governor of your state have special expertise regarding the health care system?

He ran a HOA years ago. Being a successful businessman, this has been, of course, more than sufficient to brand him 'evil' in the eyes of the political left. And his business dealings have been, as one would expect, subject to submicroscopic scrutiny.

Not looking for any actual wrongdoing, mind you, only anything that can be spun as dirt. Just like the leftmedia is doing to Romney. Just as the leftmedia has been doing to our Representative, Vern Buchanan, for years and years. Just as they always do when the politician in question isn't one of their 'fellow travelers'.
