A tale of two Texans

I still think it's gonna be Mitt.

Caribou Barbie

That makes her even hotter.

That makes her even hotter.

I can't claim credit.  Either Fate or Foeiileean introduced it here.

I'm guessing Faelin.  Fate's idea of high comedy is to read off what MoveOn thinks that the Republican talking points are.

If not Perry or Romney, then who would it be? Bachmann is too busy embarrassing herself. Ron Paul is a pretty effective primary campaigner, but he can't break through the barrier into the broader party. The whole GOP seems to be pissed at Gingrich. Nobody else has polled significant enough numbers. It would have to be a late entry, but I don't think that's going to happen. The choices available are what we'll see, IMO.

I agree one of those two will take the nomination.  I'm hoping for Romney, oh wait, what!?!

Perry would be to Obama what Kerry was to Bush.
A candidate too far out to the extreme for most americans to vote for.
I really hope Romney gets to run, otherwise we would have another 4 years of Obama mismangement of the economy.
I think I have ever seen a president more clueless about the economy.
He is just like a fucking muslim blaming everything on outside factors.

Frankly, I'll be VERY disappointed if the GOP takes Perry as it's candidate. 
I'm not feeling it, he reminds me of Fred Thompson, with a little more energy.

I wish he reminded me of Fred Thompson.  I mean, I like Perry okay, but he's no Fred Thompson.

But I'm not feeling Romney is going to happen??  The party seems in an uber-right mood.

My money is still on Romney.  Perry is the new guy & just like Bachmann with her run, I don't think he'll sustain the level of enthusiasm for him.  And the party tends to go uber-right for pretty much any primary season in recent history.

Go Huntsman! (not going to happen...but I can dream)

  I'm not a huge fan of the term 'RINO' & think it gets way, way overused, but Huntsman fits that description all too well.  And he's a collossal wuss who would be completely destroyed in the general election.  He's probably the one guy in the field who would make me seriously consider voting for a 3rd party candidate.

I'm about evenly split between Romney & Perry at this point.  Romney may win me back if he shows more feistiness like this: http://indianolarecordherald.desmoinesregister.com/VideoNetwork/1105912049001/Romney-hecklers-exchange-words-at-Iowa-State-Fair

And Perry may sway me to his side if he seems likely to get Rudy as his running mate.

Given the ideological poison that seems to have infected the party, a RINO is just what the Republicans need to lead them out of the dark.

[Zoupa]

Obama would wipe the floor with Romney in the debates.

I don't see him not getting re-elected.

[The Minsky Moment]

He is just like a fucking muslim blaming everything on outside factors.

The "Muslim" would blame everything on a inside conspiracy, as opposed to doing looking at economic fundamentals, aka "outside factors" like real economists do.

You mean like the Tea Party?

Danke.

But, you told me to vote for Romney!

[Habsburg]

I wish Christine Lagarde could run for POTUS.

I wish Christine Lagarde could run for POTUS. 

She's unelectable, for obvious reasons.
