Liz, I appreciate the effort, but I'm afraid it's too late. "Freeper Madness" is in full swing and unfortunately the only cure is the hangover after the fact when the damage is done and it's too late... /g
The insiders have finally found their man and enough conservatives will be fooled for long enough. We'll follow him into the final consolidation of that "fundamental reshaping" of America that Obama so greatly expedited, and by the time the promises and soothing blandishments of "rolling back" the damage are shown to have been lies we'll be fully cooked.
I never woulda thunk I'd live to see that the Pied Piper would be wearing cowboy boots, though...
Ultimately, I see the same drift you do from a Perry term as President. He’s certainly not going to buck the conventional Democrat/Republican establishment. “Suck eggs Tea Party members... who gives a damn what you folks think?” Alas, that’s the bottom line.
