I was a Perry supporter a full year before he announced in that I thought he would be a natural and that his electoral promise was second to none.
He came out of the gate very badly. I’d say he blew it. And even though he’s much better, it’s too late.
I think pulling out now leaves him as the odds on challenger the next time around. I hope he runs for the Senate seat in Texas.
I’m hearing he’ll endorse Gingrich. His decision to endorse Gingrich is huge. Perry is a known, accepted Christian conservative governor. He is serving notice that Gingrich is the “right” man to support.
I think he’s also royally hacked at Romney. Romney’s dirty tricks department has now been ID’d as the background backstabbers that have harrassed every candidate from the beginning.
I’m beginning to think Romney is evil....not just a liberal rino...but evil.
Huge? He's polling at 5%. Every little bit helps I suppose but huge is not the word I'd choose.
Perry was attacked by Cain saying he was behind the backstabbing rumors and by MB viciously with her lies. While these two ‘so called’ conservatives let the ‘evil one’ untouched. Now we have weasel santorum doing mitt’s dirty work. It’s pathetic to watch. Of course, we know where RP’s allegiance is to - and it’s not America. He attacked Newt on his lack of military record and left ‘the evil one’ mitt untouched! Needless to say, huntsman and mitt are cousins - so we know that story.
Reports on Twitter are 100 Tea Party leaders are going to come out in support of Newt. No time frame given.
Newt said it would be a busy week for the GOP. Newt's PAC said Newt would get a big endorsement this week. Things are happening and it explains the timing of the ‘ex-wife’ story.
Keep up the good fight.
Cain bus at Perry press conference location. WHY??
The deal may be in.
Perry had a record of doing just that. He was my choice.
I have boldly said that I cannot support Romney primarily because when he is praying I do not recognize who he is praying "to." I cannot join in his prayers. His religion denies the Names of God I AM, YHwH, El Shaddai, Creator, Alpha and Omega.
And I have yet to see Obama bend his knees before God. His politics stand against the commandments of God (e.g. pro abortion and gay activism) and would prohibit my support even if he did.
Of course I will support Gingrich against Romney and Obama for political reasons - but I don't know his prayer habits, I don't know if he will lead prayers for our country or to whom he prays. Therefore, I don't know if I can join in his prayers.
But I will join in prayer with you, my dear brothers and sisters in Christ, because elections, judicial fiats and enactment and enforcement of laws of men cannot heal this country.
