National Journal ^ | 09/24/2011 | Ron Fournier and Rodney Hawkins

MACKINAC ISLAND, Mich. – Mitt Romney brushed aside criticism from his chief rival for the Republican presidential nomination Saturday night and accused President Obama of being too ignorant and naïve about the U.S. economy to lead it out of recession. “I just don’t think he’s equipped for what’s happening,” the former Massachusetts governor said. [...]

One Romney aide, speaking on condition of anonymity, overstated Romney’s strength but underscored the team’s cockiness when he said, “It’s over. Perry is toast.”

“Perry will still be the nominee...no matter how you feel about him.”

I was just fine with him through 2 debates. The last debate he alternated between stammering like a drunken fool and insulting 81% of the electorate, including me.

“Just wait till Cain is truly vetted...ain’t goin’ to be pretty. Just wait till he is completely trashed...it’s a comin’”

Who forced Perry to lose the ability to communicate at the debate other than when he was personally insulting me and 81% of the rest of the electorate?

I was leaning Perry, but after seeing the meltdown of this magnitude, I see him in the low teens in the next full poll, and in single digits afterwards.

He is a goner.

Perry will be the nominee...remember straw polls are pretty meaningless...look at Bachmann she won a straw poll and this straw poll she had 1.5%...see how meaningless they are.

Here let me offend you again...grow up and enter the real world.

“grow up and enter the real world.”

I guess I just don’t have the heart.
