If only he would go on a book tour, then you would like him.

With all the surge in the polls, Cain has zero chance of beating Romney or Obama.

Says you a defender of Perry's liberal policies.

btw...you do realize that the owner of this CONSERVATIVE forum has said,"I will vote for Perry if he's the last man standing against Romney"? Is he trying to elect Romney also?

I am loving that graph more with every update.

Yes, it changes daily for the better. Cain has now passed Perry and his next RINO target -- Mitt Romney.

"America remains the last best hope of mankind. We must never forget that the exceptionalism of America can be traced right into our founding principles, the fact that the framers of our Constitution were the first in the history to declare that all men are created equal, endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights."

"The hand of Providence has guided America throughout our history, from those first colonists to arrive in the New World to the courage of George Washington during those darkest hours of Valley Forge to the defeat of tyranny during two world wars and the Cold War. Time and time again America has been the source of light in a world that's been beset by darkness."

"And like a lighthouse perched on the shore, we have provided this safe harbor to millions who have been adrift in a sea of economic misery. We can still be the country we aspire to, a source of light and hope to all who live here and those who come here. Anchored by our ideals, we can rebuild on the solid foundation of truth instead of the shifting sands of moral relativism. We can restore hope at home while projecting our values abroad. We can be the freest, most prosperous people to ever occupy the planet if we remain one nation under God."

Excerpt from transcript. Governor Perry is an inspiring speaker. It's a far better way for him to express himself, his goals and beliefs, than in some media gotcha debate circus.

“Says you a defender of Perry’s liberal policies. “

WHAT liberal policies? Perry is a solid conservative with a record of governing as such. He is the only electable conservative in the race — pardon me for thinking that we all share the goal of defeating Obama and while doing that, NOT ending up with President Romney either.

Your own quote of JR says he will vote for Perry against Romney — so why do you keep attacking Perry and his supporters, which does help Romney walk away with the nomination, while the conservative vote splits?

You are being rather transparent in your attempts to keep trying to get JR to ban me, by constantly pinging him to my posts. JR owns the forum, you must be pretty detached from reality to think he is going to take direction from you — you don’t like a poster, so JR will ban him/her for you?!

No it isn't surprising at all.

Cain is the candidate who will get the most support from Tea Party people. That makes him the candidate with the best chance of defeating Barry and his socialist agenda.

Great speech. Obviously a man that KNOWS HOW TO LEAD.

when a MAN respects LIFE as much as PERRY does and loves Freedom with the same fervor, he will lead america to greatness again.

I’ve not read the thread but I want to comment straight off—it is amazing that she took the time to transcribe!

Appreciative of that effort!

WHAT liberal policies?

Instate tuition for ILLEGAL aliens is a liberal policy.

so why do you keep attacking Perry and his supporters,

You really are delusional. I posted a graph in this thread with no comment about Perry supporters whatsoever. It was YOU who attacked me. I can live with that. But I won't allow you to say I attacked you when all I did was post a graph.

You are being rather transparent in your attempts to keep trying to get JR to ban me,

If anyone is trying to get you banned from this forum it is you.

"I will not be a candidate for President of the United States"

Truth is still a virtue having value. If I may be so heartless to say.

No thanks Rick.

It is important to look at all the Candidates.

I found Herman Cain’s speech to the Values Voter Summit to be very inspirational. Have a look and you be the judge about whether Herman Cain is electable!

Can you for once just stfu? I hate posting here anymore because every damn Perry thread is taken over by you and your ilk. We get it, you can’t stand him. However, your constant spamming and trolling Perry threads doesn’t win points for your fav.

Maybe what he meant was...

"I will not be a good candidate for President of the United States"

In which case he would be 100% correct.

I don’t believe anything Cain says. He has a history of giving “inspirational” speeches and turning around and stabbing people in the back. sorry he’s not for me.

On Friday Rush seems to be creeping away from being a Perry supporter.

He had nothing but glowing things to say about Herman Cain.

I think we will see other conservatives getting on the Cain Train next week.

The Tea Party is gathering momentum to elect a real conservative. Almost every member of Our Tea Party here in SW Florida finds Perry's platform on giving illegal’s rights to in-state colleges is appalling.

We are not a “heartless” group of folks!
