Many Texans can't stand Perry.

I never supported him.

He will not last long.

He is a RINO in the truest sense of the word.

So who do you like, alpha? Is it too late for Dick Cheney to get into this thing?

Herman Cain seems to have a plan.

Default Rick Perry in trouble in Florida

Herman Cain blew Rick Perry out of the water in a straw poll after the latest debate in Florida. Some link Perry's big loss to his stand on Social Security. Florida has a very large retirement population. If Perry becomes the nominee, he may have a serious problem winning the state of Florida in 2012. If he loses Florida, that pretty much means Obama will get re-elected. Perry may be popular among the republican base but he is going to have problems with senior citizens, moderates and independents, the most reliable voters.

It's Cain's turn to be flavor of the month? Alpha, that guy doesn't have a clue how government is run. Please don't yell, b-b-but Barack! ... yeah, if Obama's inexperience was of concern to you, why would you make the same mistake again? Why not Romney?

I will support whoever the republican nominee is.

As of now, I like Cain.

I wish we could do this......give obama and Cain each $10,000 to invest in a business.

Who would be in a better position in two years?

The thing is, government is not a business. Never has been and should never be a business. There is a reason it's called government. You want to run a business? Then run a business. Government has elements of business (money should balance), but there is much more to government than business principles.

Remember the last CEO in Chief we had? How well did *that* work out.
