Let me start by saying that like many others, I am dissappointed by the field. I don’t think any of the Republicans in the race right now have a chance to beat Obama in ’12. I mostly like Herman Cain and Michele Bachmann, but they have no chance. I say right now because Rick Perry is not in the race yet.
Here is his speech today at the Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans.
You can hear some in the crowd shouting, “Run, Rick, Run!” If he did run, I strongly believe that he would win the Republican nomination. He is everything that Mitt Romney wishes he could be. Governor Perry could simple campaign on his economic record in Texas for the last 11 years. There is no doubt that the economy will be the #1 concern unless Obummer can pull off some kind of miracle in the next year. And if Perry did win the Republican nomination, I would like to see him choose Lieutenant Colonel Allen West for VP.
If you listen closely through the noise from the audience, you can hear that he sure knows his Islamic history. I love how outspoken and fearless he is. There is no pause to self-censor before his responses.
So what say you? Who can beat the iWon?
My God, can that man speak. He’s virtually beyond reproach! If he somehow makes it into the Whitehouse, we’ll REALLY see who The Great Orator is. Dammit, why won’t he run???
