Apparently, the best way to defeat Perry is to simply let him start talking. He was so popular when he first came out, and then came the debates. He is Texas Toast. The question is who will be the next front runner since he is all but washed out.

Yes, in the Daily Beast.

It’s Time to Buy Rick Perry Stock

First, the likelihood that Perry will iron out the wrinkles and become a better debater and candidate over time is greater, and maybe far greater, than the likelihood that Mitt Romney will become more acceptable to conservatives.

Romney

Don't insult him with a lowball offer though. He's going for more than $5,000.

That is right. He pays more than that for a haircut and manicure.

"Texas Toast" is so accurate, especially since the anti-environmental protection, anti-clean air, anti-clean water, anti-climate change state is burning up. Literally.

Perry's loss of popularity is not surprising. Those who rise the fastest fall the hardest.

Now the repubs have a quandry. They're left with Newt, who they don't like; two Mormons who they think are too liberal and are cultish, a Christ-Taliban lunitic from MN, and a Chatholic who with about as much pizazz as a pile of dung, an old man, and Herman Cain.

My oh my, Who will they choose?

Lets see, first it was Palin even though she isn't running. Then Cain and how quickly he faded, then Bachmann rose to the top and is now fading away, and now its Perrys turn. One GOP loon after another falls. Who will be next?
