Perry is in, it's official. Now the man who called for secession in April 2009 is going for President. After looking over his wiki article, he manages to hit the wrong button on all issues.

- Creationism
- Lack of fiscal good sense
- Pro Life
- Anti Gay
- Against Planned Parenthood
- Believes Israel has a divine right to exist
- Against the HPV vaccine
- At least 234 executions (I'm not against the death penalty, I'm just against diluting it's effect by killing the innocent and the guilty guilty of lesser crimes)
- Global Warming denier

All of course in addition to the 1st Amendment smashing Prayrepalooza where he admitted that he was not competent to solve Texas' problems, so he tries praying and before the results can be tested he decides that not being able to solve Texas' problems makes him competent to solve America's problems.

I'm sorry, but this guy is a full scale red flag for all europeans including virulent atlanticists (that means pro-america) like myself.

This cannot last though right? Bachmann and Paul scoring a combined 57% of the vote? Please tell me the average republican has more sense than sending either of those two looney tunes to face Obama.

Well, Perry might be indispensable now.  Consider that the double-dip recession and his inability to inspire hope or produce change have ended Obama's chance of reelection.  If the GOP nominates Bachmann or Paul, a pall of lunacy will descend upon America that will bring to life all of the MoveOntards worst nightmares about the Bush years (that never came to pass because Bush wasn't retarded or crazy).  If it takes Perry to prevent those imbeciles from gaining power, so be it.

The only other option is that a Democrat beats Obama for the Democratic nomination.

Doesn't that work in his favour?  If the Europeans like a guy, that probably means he's an incompetent boob.

The looney lefty yooro will hate all republicans, but atlanticists like myself will hate this guy as well... basically, those of us who were willing to give "W" a chance 11 years ago will not be willing to give this guy a chance at all. Expect not having allies for the period of a Perry or Bachman presidency.

Gonna have to see how Perry polls vs. Obama, but I may switch from Romney to him.  If Rudy seems likely to be his VP, then I'd pretty much support him by default.

Who would even notice?

I count on having zero Euro allies with any Republican president in office.  You guys will assume the 'worst' of anyone with an R next to his name

Why?  Canada's government is liable to be friendly to the US whether it's Obama, Perry or even one of the crazies.

Rick Perry is an idiot that panders to the most idiotic tendencies in the loony right. For the sake of your own country don't let a loon like Perry become president. I'm not saying vote Obama, I'm saying don't vote Batshit.

If the choice is between Perry and Bachmann, then you have to choose Perry.

The straw poll is a totally manufactured event.  To cast a vote you have to travel across the state to the polling site and you have to pay ($30?).  So what it's really measuring is the financial ability of each candidate to pay for free bus rides and polling tickets, as well as the hard-core groupie support.

That being said Iowa Republicans are a pretty wacky bunch so a Bachmann victory in the caucus (which is a lot more real than the straw poll but still kind of fake) is not out of the question.
