Are liberals getting a bit obsessed?

What are you going to do when you have to call him President Perry?

Of course, we've seen similar obsessions with Palin, Bachmann, Romney, Cain, Gingrich, etc. when their names came to the forefront.

Oops, make it 27.

This is their modus operandi - get as much, frame it in a negative light and see what sticks.

They did the same with Palin.

I doubt it will work with Perry.

It's PERRYMANIA!! The reason for that?

They are skeeered.

I'm a conservative.

I think a lot of conservatives don't like Perry because he is a fake conservative.

Notice that most of these topics are made by conservatives that are bashing Perry (not liberals)

I don't even know all that much about Perry yet save for what liberals are trying to convince me to think about him. What I do know is that when you see who the critics are you begin to understand who has the agenda and why.

And no, I don't "Notice that most of these topics are made by conservatives that are bashing Perry (not liberals)".

For sure. I can't believe some of them. I can believe not liking a candidate or trying to defend the person you are supporting, but this has become an obsession and sooner or later it is going to backfire. They have mutilated all those you mention and scared Daniels out of any possible run, now they are after Perry. I don't think it will work. Sooner or later people are going to say: enough is enough. Can't we just be left to make up our own minds. Digging up article on top of article and saying this proves something is getting boring.

They are absolutely not by conservatives, with rare exception they are libartarians (certainly not conservatives) or liberals. There might be a couple who are conservatives. The only conservatives I have seen blast him are the Paul supporters.

Absofreakinlutely...
Rock Hudson Perry is a poser, who has tried to partially emulate a Ron Paul discourse, but Perry is a fake.

Ron Paul is the real deal.

Of course, Ron Paul wants to secure the borders, whereas Perry is pro-open borders. Major difference there.

perry is gop establishment bush 2.0

he is not any fiscal champion.

he's a phony illegal alien loving big spending governor.

republicans just get behind him because the media says hes the front runner.

the sensible person all along has been paul.

i am an independent, one perry has to win over to win the election, and he has no chance to get my vote.

Perhaps you should ask Kay Bailey Hutchinson if she will be supporting Rick Perry. How about Karl Rove? Perry is supported by the most right wing zealots in Texas. The first time he ran, he only got around 40%. Had the vote not been split 3 ways, he would never have gotten elected in Texas.
Rick Perry says one thing and does another. He is totally charming in his people pleasing way. He is just another opportunist politician. Think Tom Delay with manners.
