Not surprising... I get the impression from many Freepers’ posts that they’d rather have Romney as president, or even see Obama re-elected, over Perry.
Perplexing.
And sickening.
How about we stop with the BS and stop trying to put up a false choice between lousy Rick Perry and rotten to the core Slick Willard?
Not true, but I could understand the sentiment after Arnold or either Bush.
I am fully and completely on the Cain Train.
I would prefer Perry over Romney.
I would prefer any GOP candidate over Obama.
Yes, any.
Knock it off!
You haven’t been here long enough to measure FReeper sentiment and you’re dead-bang WRONG!
Not hard to figure out. His performance since entering the race is historic in the depths of it's ineptitude.
I didn't know much about him before he got in the race. I figured, given his credentials, that he would be an acceptable nominee. I've now reached the conclusion that he just isn't very good at anything, and is horrible beyond description at simple debating. He is not too talented and, seemingly, not too bright. He should withdraw before embarrassing himself further.
Not perplexing at all. We got smacked up side the head with “compassionate conservatism” with GW, a Texan Governor if you recall. Not a second time.
Don’t include me in that group of ‘many’. However, I can assure you that I don’t give a flying f what anyone says, I will go to the polls and vote for whoever wins the primary. I will not sit home. I want that bastard OUT in 2012! Romney is a sorry SOB but if he wins the primary, I will do as Sarah Palin said.... ANYONE BUT OBAMA.
I agree with you, n00bie or not.
Not here. NO on Romney, NO on Perry and NO on Obama.
I agree with you, too. Welcome to FR.
It’s almost as though there’s a mass insanity afoot—people wring their hands over whether Perry “debates” well or not, while ignoring the obvious problems with Romney and Obama. Everyone swooned over Obama’s “oratory skills” and voted him into office. I fear the same thing will happen with Romney in the primaries. Romney will be easily defeated once the Mormon record of racism (140 years worth) is exposed by the media, who is just waiting for him to get the nod before they pounce.
Only one person is responsible for Perry's plummet in the polls, and that's Perry. I guess for the worst Perrybots, they just can't bring themselves to accept that, so they have to blame everyone BUT Perry.
Vote either for the shakedown artist Obama, or for the RINO wusses who get shaken down and blames the Tparty... hmm...

My thought exactly. You never see them openly shill for Romney around here cause they know it’s a non-starter, but you can tell by the way they savage the only guy in the race who seems interested in defeating Romney that he’s who they ultimately want.
As to these polls-totally meaningless at this point. Hardly anyone in the general electorate is paying attention. I seem to recall Reagan trailing Carter by double-digits in around November of 1979. Further, I don’t buy any “electability” argument against a POTUS with an approval of around 38% and nearly double-digit unemployment. If we have a true conservative running (NOT ROMNEY!!) this could be 1980 all over again.
Exactly
>> I get the impression from many Freepers’ posts that they’d rather have Romney as president, or even see Obama re-elected, over Perry.
It seems that way.
Well, I still like Perry....maybe he is not so hot as a debater....but one great Govenor...way better than the half a commie flip-flopping gov in mass.
It is a year before our elections....so lets see what happens
You know what? If you don’t want to quickly earn a troll label, you come back to defend your statements instead of just making cowardly hit-and-run posts like you did here.
