In 1988, Perry was Al Gore's presidential primary campaign chairman in Texas. Gore lost Texas to Dukakis. In 1989, Perry announced he was a Republican.
I don't trust the guy.
The Sultan has an interesting article about Perry.

Rodger!!!! Smooooochies!
Regan was a Democrat before he became a Republican....I don't trust the guy. deni
Perry's job was to make Gore lose to Dukakis. He succeeded. He still is a Republican.

Besides, RR endorsed the presidential candidacies of Eisenhower in 1952 and 1956 and Nixon in 1960 while remaining a Democrat. (He became a Repub in 1962.)
Chuck and I agree on this one-I don't trust the guy either. He said a fence along the border was idiocy.
After getting this GD spending under control, these illegals have got to go.
Palin is still my choice.

Thank you, not that I support Palin over Perry but I like it that you actually named a candidate that you like but also one I could vote for if she entered and won.
I held my nose and voted for McCain last time. This time I'll vote Republican but abstain from voting for President if Romney gets the primary nomination.
So Linda SOG - how was Gstaad?
Add unflinching support of "keep and bear arms" to that list and I'm sold.
I would just one more time in my life to be able to walk into a voting booth and vote FOR a candidate for president instead of holding my nose and casting a vote against a candidate. The first and only FOR vote I have ever cast was Reagan's second term.
Linda SOG! Glad to see you are still kickin!
Perry was a Southern Democrat and supported Gore in 88 BUT he saw the light. He has quite publicly called Gore a idiot. Reagan was a Democrat & became a great Republican.
So, back to Perry Most very conservative Texans I know support him. How many other Governors, besides Sarah, carry a gun and use it, when needed?

My #1 rule for a presidential canidate has always been s/he must have either been a Conservative Govenor and/or Business owner to qualify in my book for President of the US.
Now, I have to admit I like Palin BUT, at this point I support Perry more.
Of course, I will vote against Obama no matter what.
I didn't vote for McCain. I voted for Palin.
Didn't everyone Chuck?
Score one for The Toad...
"abstain from voting for President if Romney gets the primary nomination."
Clearly, if the GOP does finally acknowledge its traditional conservative base, it may go down in 2012; if it does NOT, however, it will likely cease to be a force in American politics.

A fence on the border is idiocy.
The border needs to be a military reservation a quarter mile wide. The Mexican side should consist of a single bare wire a foot off the ground.
Cross that wire, and your corpse gets thrown back over the wire.
A southern democrat is ALWAYS better than a northeastern Republican. Just sayin.
wmprof - where have you been? And you are correcto.
KRISTOPHER / PALIN IN 2012 ! ; ) > smibsid
Perry/Palin 2012?
Linda!! Great to see you're back. It would be a trifecta if we also had Josh and Jack Hamilton.

Gstaad?? 0_o
That was ages ago, I barely remember!
but if I told you where I've been, well... I'd have to kill you!
Why do people get so worked up about which person they are going to cast their vote for on election day? Their vote doesn't even enter into the equation, it really only receives an asterisk at the end of the night.
(Bush-Gore 2000)
And that little asterisk needs to be fought for, it and the electoral college. If we aren't careful it could be our next Pearl Harbor.
And dems are dirtier players then Germans :)
Oddly enough, Karl Rove played a huge role in Perry's conversion.
I've been watchin' Perry for years and he will have my vote over Mitt.
