I have been guilty. I have been very guilty on the Perry thread. Well I am not doing it anymore. Your article is correct. I can go with Santorum, Newt, Perry. I am leaning towards a Newt/Santorum ticket because Santorum is young enough to be President in 8 years and after the two of them transforming our country, we will be in good shape for another 4-8 years of a Republican President. So if we go with this ticket it is possible that we have the Presidency until at least January 2029.
That took significant character on your part to admit, FRiend. I am impressed.
You have no idea what a huge breath of fresh air this was for me to read. I appreciate your posting it as well.
For many many times I have started out a smart alec response to you on the Perry threads and then I read them and hit my back button instead of posting.
I LIKE you Naps but I was begining to really NOT like you on the Perry threads.
Thank you for your post.
There’s plenty of guilt, mine included, to go around on those Perry threads. That’s why I stopped visiting them quite some time ago. Acrimony, accusations and caustic statements flew both ways. Much of it fueled by disagreement on his illegal-immigration record. I finally had enough and boycotted them.
I’ve also settled down and realized we simply don’t have a shining star this season; at least in a true conservative sense. They all have warts, they all leave us with some desire for ‘more’, but it’s what we have to deal with. Besides, this is primary season, not the general run-up. I’ll vote for either Gingrich or Santorum in the Illinois primary; Santorum being a little more ahead in my mind right now. If Perry surges again and wins the nomination, so be it. No to Huntsman (I doubt he’ll be around by Illinois), ‘You gotta be kidding me’ to Paul, Hell No! to Romney. But I will not engage in any further contentious campaign acrimony. I’m sorry I fell into it. And will not allow myself to be part of the problem.
