We all know that politicians are game players, the one who plays the game best, comes out the winner. Something every one of them do, some do it better then others.

They'll say the same thing when we switched to republican after being a democrat that supported Gore. He's a Grandstander, but he's our grandstander.

I'm not. I'd rather take my chances with Huntsman or even RomneyCare.
No all indications are romney gets more independents. Perry reminds indes of bush and they still have that taste in the mouth from him. He will win the south for the most part but Ohio and Pennsylvania not so much.

Why would they be mad at Obama now after his big recent amnesty?

Perry is as bad as Bush. Bush would have amnestied them earlier than Obama did. Perry shows big character flaws in pandering to this racist group.

If he gets the ticket, it would only prove that it ain't just Perry who is fraud, but the character of the republican party and its followers.
