Perry is the best candidate. Took second only to Newt last night. And I loved when he called the lib press on “despicable” as related to our troops. He’s honest, passionate, and the man I’d like to see as our President. But he continues to get hammered as unelectable, the stupid flip-side of Romney being electable.

How did we get here?

Everything’s upside down, isn’t it? Conservatives flocking to Romney despite the fact that he is a liberal with blood on his hands-—after the Tea Party success of 2010! And people here taking gleeful pleasure in tearing apart a solid conservative Christian. Disagreement is one thing-—but the pack mentality, the yapping and screeching like packs of hyenas toward ONE OF OUR OWN is absolutely inexplicable to me.

I have a theory, and it’s only my personal one. The country is in moral collapse; I believe God may have abandoned us to ourselves, and to the leaders we deserve.

Do you really need to ask that? Perry was his own worst enemy. I dont live in Texas so I have only read about Perry being the longest serving Governor and was interested in his candidacy when it was announce. Then he starts his debats by calling conservatives “heartless” in a debate, forgets what agencies he would eliminate with his “oops” moment, made a speech in NH that sounded like some drunken sermon and just plain old failed to impress. First impressions are everything and he flopped in his debut never able to recover. That is what happened to Perry and he may have damaged his brand going forward if he had 2016 ambitions they may be gond for good.
