...there are some politically conservative Muslim American voters who support him

Ugh, that phrase made me throw up.

How can you say the choice is between the TWO? There hasn’t been one single primary. John Bolton might announce. Sarah Palin might announce. Someone else might announce. It’s August of 2011 for heaven’s sake. Get over it.

Sure, and I “might” win a million dollars, but in the meantime, I better live within my means.

Of the current or potential candides, nobody, but Perry could beat Romney, then subsequently Obama. If you don’t see that, you are living in a dreamworld, not reality.

Your constant harping on Perry’s minimum interaction with Muslims and portrayal of that as Perry being an anti-American Muslim sympathizer is beyond ludicrous, a number of people pointed it out to you and refuted your huget leap to conclusions, but you keep insisting on it. All that makes people wonder about your real agenda.

The pledge from Perry wouldn’t be worth a warm bucket of spit

You're right, it wouldn't.

This is a primary and we can do far better than to nominate another liberal Republican. But some just don't get that. I think there may be a lot of latinos in his small but vocal gang of supporters. Maybe not. Maybe they just like his hair. Then again, maybe they just like RINOs.

Problem is the attack dogs from the Palin crowd ..... catfish1957

Let's be very clear. This is a very vocal, visible and enthusiastic group on THIS board. It is NOT reflective of the electorate at large. .... don-o

Outside of the delusional echo chamber that the Palin Worshipers live in, this is the reality of how Sarah Palin fares with the electorate at large.

FOX NEWS Poll released on Wednesday, August 10, 2011

FOX News Poll: (August 7-9, 2011)

Question 25. Sarah Palin - Do you think this person would make a good president or not?

.................YES.........NO.......DK.....Never heard of

ALL...........19%.......75%.........4%.......1%

Dem ............7%........89%.........3%.......1%

Rep ...........34%.......58%.......7%.......1%

Ind ...........20%........74%.......5%.......1%

Yet, multiple so-called "conservative" Palin Worshipers are posting on Free Republic that, if Palin is not nominated, they will write in her name in the general election. One of them even has that declaration as his tag line.

The Palin Worshipers are conducting themselves like Far-Left political operatives from Democratic Underground or the DNC would act if they were conducting agitprop on Free Republic by masquerading as a conservatives: "A true conservative throws away his vote so that a Marxist can win the White House!"

The bottom line is that the Palin Worshipers have become a de facto Obama Fifth Column in the efforts to defeat Marxist Obama in November, 2012.

Here is what JimRob had to say about Rick Perry a while back:

========================

Posted on Friday, July 01, 2011 10:13:29 AM by Jim Robinson

“..... if Palin does not run but Perry does, he'd probably suck all the air out of the race. Either way, ..... Perry would all be excellent alternatives to Obama the commie. Anyone but RINO Romney the big government chief architect of CommieCare! …… Posted on Friday, July 01, 2011 10:13:29 AM by Jim Robinson”

Absolutely a big problem I have with her. She should have finished out her term. A friend of mine said he thinks she is a quitter for leaving her job as governor, but also going to 4 different colleges to get a degree!

I was born in east texas and every one of my relatives there pronounce “tire” as “tar”.

You say that as if it were a bad thing. Cheers from Gregg County!
