Did Sarah & Rick have a little talk? ...hope so.
Anything is possible...because ALOT of us in SC will NOT get behind Mittens!!!!
Shock. He didn’t want to force women to use Gardasil, but Merck told him to, so he did. He didn’t want to run for president, but Anita told him to, so he did. He didn’t want to continue on, but Katon Dawson told him to, so he did.
This man has no spine!
Um, isn't that true about Iowa? The results of his "strongest skill set" there was not too impressive.
Does anyone have current polling on SC? Last I saw was RCP from late last month and it was Gingrich, Mittens, Paul, Bachmann, PERRY, and Santorum. Bachmann is out and Santorum is in a surge. That still leaves Perry near the back. Is there signs of life for him there or is this a Hail Mary?
They're natural allies and friends, it wouldn't surprise me.
That poll means nothing now.
Of course he does, but you have no heart, remember? OOPS!
GO PERRY GO!
Yeah, well, he’d have done better if he had pandered to the Big Government Corn Lobby like Newty, Mittzy, and Little Ricky S., but I’m glad he didn’t.

That is why I asked what the current polling in the state shows, if there is any.
I'm sorry PAC, that's all getting so old.
And Perry is a real option. He’s got the Executive experience, solid 2nd & 10th Amendment guy, and will stand up to these yahoos in the media. I hope people don’t let polls and media pressure them into settling. The libs and media are pulling a Palin on Perry, spreading the word he’s stupid and incompetent. Well, he’s neither.
I do like Santorum as well though his backing Specter was a real turn-off. I live in PA and I felt like he went with the establishment once the going got rough. But I’ll gladly overlook that if he’s the nominee and I’ll fight like hell to elect him. Same for Newt. But please don’t count Perry out yet, he’s the real deal.
South Carolina should be natural turf for Perry. I figure it’s make or break for him there, so your “Hail Mary” analogy is most likely correct.
Here’s a pretty fair article about it...

BTW, I think your RCP link does represent the most recent polling. I imagine a new one will be out by the weekend.
LOL. No doubt about it, he’s one of the juvenile keyword spam monkeys,they are a pretty mindless bunch. :)
I like a lot of things about Perry. And to be honest, I think he was just starting to get people’s attention in Iowa again..timing is everything and it didn’t work out. But people were giving him a second look and a second chance. Why?
I believe it’s because he has a strong message on the economy and smaller government. When the right candidate starts pounding on these 2 issues and not get distracted by the media and pulled into senseless squabbles with other candidates..he will take off.
People have enough on their minds without the needless/childish fighting. People are worried about the country’s well-being and that’s the message they want to hear.
Planks for our platform were coming left and right out of Perry supporters..things like term limits, Congress having to live under the same laws we do, Congress having to use the same healthcare as we do..and they passed hands down.
Perry has a message that can stick with people. He needs to focus on it..get it down tighter and he will do better than people think.
