Okay.
I think his early (well, his first) debate formed a negative opinion of him that was hard to shake.
But evil forces had been conspiring against him before that because he is the one they fear. :)
Another reason I think he should stay in though is that by staying in, he still has influence.
Not running or dropping out and you’re off the radar completely.
Does anyone really care what Palin, Cain or Bachmann are staing these day? The media doesn’t.
Perry right now is raising a big stink about Romney and his vulture capitalism. Perry can do this because he has a sterling record as being business friendly and Rush should know this.
He is helping Gingrich because Gingrich is not left as the only person to bring this up.
If Perry can’t make it, I’m for Newt and by staying in, Perry does help Newt.
“Does anyone really care what Palin, Cain or Bachmann are staing these day?”
The first two yes, the last one, no.
“Perry right now is raising a big stink about Romney and his vulture capitalism.”
Smacks of “me-tooism,” following Newts’ lead.
I like that you have a backup candidate, Newt is my backup as well. It shows depth and breadth of thought in these primaries rather than emotion.
