Yes, actually, I have personally argued that I see Palin as a potential candidate with merit who has not yet proven herself. Perhaps you can explain how that relates to my comment on Perry?

Consider my comment on his “heartless” statement this way: Perry had the opportunity to state that he believed in-state tuition was the compassionate and smart way to handle an existing problem. Instead, he threw out a two second soundbite that attacks many of the people he needs to get elected.

It bothers me that a candidate reflexively attacks his purported base. His skill as a “sound bite” debater is not the point.

With regard to the fence issue - Perry may have a perfectly sound approach to the problem of illegal immigration. I did not mention the border fence at all, in part because I have not yet studied his position to sufficiently comment on it. Which makes your argument on the fence more than a bit beside the point.

I do congratulate on your skill at posting interesting pictures, BTW. But I fail to see how anything you wrote negates my comment.

Best Answer: it used to be a deviled ham but it went through an exorcism and was cured.
