It is fine to be loyal and truely support someone, regardless of your reason, but to stay home cause your guy or gal isn't at the top of ticket is like a kid saying "I don't like your game, I am taking my toys and going home"

This election is most definitely the GOP's to lose and lose they will if they stay home.
1. he said mandatory forced injections of school aged girls was the right thing to do because he was looking out for them.
2. actually defended his in state tuition for illegal immigrants bill.
3. praised the relationship between mexico and texas.
open borders, amnesty, stalinist with the injections.
He did not say mandatory was right, he stressed the opt out and he said he was concerned about the health. Was it a good move to even try to mandate the program? Absolutely no, he is dead wrong, but the option was there for parents.
His defending his state tuition: even my husband who thought he would have a problem with Perry's view, decided he made good sense. The thing he mentioned and this is the secret: the recepients have to be in the process of applying for legal citizenship.
You don't like him, we get it, but the constant blasting is going to backfire.
What makes me sad is that Obama wont fight dirty and he is up against dirty fighters. They call him Muslim not a citizen so forth and so on.
Why would anyone want to attack someone for being a Mormon? That would be stupid. Being a Muslim to many is very different than being a Mormon. I am not saying Obama is a Muslim, I really don't know, but I can tell you there is a huge difference.
When PPP did a national poll three weeks ago Barack Obama led Perry by only 6 points at 49-43. Now that gap has widened to 11 points at 52-41. The main movement has come with Democratic voters. On the previous poll Obama had only a 68 point lead with the party base at 81-13 but now it's 80 points at 89-9. We know there are a lot of Democratic voters disenchanted with Obama right now but if the GOP puts forward someone like Perry who's willing to go after one of the Holy Grails of the party's orthodoxy like Social Security it might scare those voters back into the fold.
In addition to his horse race numbers taking a wrong turn Perry's favorability numbers are worse than they were 3 weeks ago as well. Only 30% of voters have a positive opinion of him to 50% with a negative one.

You really don't know? He is a Christian! How many times does he have to.......I give up. So Obama =Muslim bad romney=Mormon good. Got it.
Come on guys. You are letting the cat out of the bag. Let them elect perry. He represents them much more than romney does.
Seriously -- let them think that the majority of the country thinks Bush 2.0 is just what the country needs right now. Let them think that right up until Nov. 2012.
