Just a quick question...did Ricki Perry successfully locate a fire hydrant nearby?

I can guarantee, he was packing heat while on stage during the debate.


The guy stays in shape, but he is a one handed fighter and has no ground game.

Both Perry and Paul are from Texas, so chances are pretty good that they are well acquainted.

My sources (who can't be named because they are not authorized to speak for either campaign) reveal that Perry is simply asking Paul to be his running mate for the 2012 election, and is driving each point home with his body language.

About as logical as the OP's position,....don't you think?

Perry is clearly an alpha male. He has already shown he can "get ugly" with folks.

I get the impression that Romney is the guy the establishment wants to replace Obama, Perry is the guy who stirs up the GOP base and Ron paul is the guy who has the ideas people actually think make the most sense.
But as fun as it is seeing these guys spar with each other, think how any one of them could go after Obama and rip him to pieces in a debate.

Please...

It's clear there's some bad blood between these two. But Ron Paul is less "intimidated" by Rick Perry than you are by your neighbor's yappy Chihuahua.

Alpha Male!!???

He's what we call a four flushing swish from where I come from.
Meaning he's all hot air and drama who will fold like a bad hand when you call his bluff. For Heavens Sakes, he's attempting to bully (and failing) a 77 year old man.

Alpha Male?

I don't think so, except maybe at the tea-cup rose pavillion.

boy I guess some people are gulliable. If you believe what you read in something like that, you will believe almost anything.

I think it is clear, none of us have a clue what was said or what this is or was all about. People are making a mountain out of a molehill.

I just posted a clip of Ron Paul explaining what happened. Listen to it.

There is no need for further speculation about what happened now. You can hear it from the horses mouth. (Here it is again.)
