Thanks, I've been giving this lots of thought in the last 24 hours. My comments go to those here on FR, and other places, who want to blame the rise of people like Mitt on "the establishment".

There is no starker contrast is two candidates before the American people this election cycle than these two governors. Romney has a very mediocre RECORD. Frankly, his only real record of "accomplishment" is Romney care. On the record of life alone, Romney seems to adopt whatever position seems to be beneficial at the time.

Gov. Perry has already signed legislation defunding Planned Parenthood and legislation requiring a parent's consent for an abortion.

This illustration of SS proves that it is Gov. Perry who was telling the truth about SS and what did it get him? Ridicule.

We can make all kinds of contrasts between these two governors. Perry is a veteran. Perry has the resume but Romney has the votes.

I do not blame "the establishment", I blame those who have chosen to vote for Romney over Perry.

I know it’s become common to use “establishment” but I don’t do it to degrade just to point out that the Tea Party bent of the GOP (if it’s still alive) wants to pull right and the (for lack of a better term — help me out if you can) “establishment” doesn’t want to go there. They are content to stay where they’ve made their beds. The problem is, they need to be kicked out of their comfortable “beds” and made to get home (leave their cushy Beltway existence) .......well, that’s why they’re fighting Gov. Perry so hard. They like Gov. Romney’s noodle spine; they don’t want to work with Gov. Perry’s steel spine.
