I hope so!
Me too .... but Romney and Bachman are loaded for bear against him.
From your mouth to God’s ears. I may not have been a Perry fan, but I will never vote for Romney. I like Herman Cain, but don’t think he stands a chance. So, as it stands now, I am supporting Perry.
Fox said the debate starts in moments at 8:47pm. That’s a lot of moments, literally speaking.
Let’s tweet during the debate and make sure all the Repubs are reported directly to #attackwatch.
“F” both of them.
It’s a reapeat of McStain-Huckster against Milt in 2008.
If they ever have a “The Making of the President, 2012”, then this would make for a good subchapter.
I like Herman as well.
I just think his 999 plan is unworkable.
The IRS will never allow a simplified tax code.
Here we go!

Gary Johnson?
Michelle all in red. Hutsman and Cain wearing those horrible yellow ties that wreck havoc with the color schemes.
Brett is very orange. Who chose that outfit for Michele? She blends with the podium.
Sorry... but "F" who?
One year old. December 2010 issue of GQ.
Huntsman waves like Wink Martindale
The IRS can be wiped out with a stroke of the Executive Pen.
Perry got his TORT reform in there. Good.
Perry got the 1st question. So far, so good.
It is Wink Martindale!
His halting speech makes me a nervous wreck.
