Obama vs. Perry - The Sequel

I'm pleasantly surprised by the the poll results so far, both on ECCIE and on TV. Though I'm not happy with Perry as our potential next POTUS, like Sidewinder, I feel getting Obama and his cronies out is crucial for the future of our Country.

If those are the choices. Perry

Cronies? Like Boehner?
I expect that my vote in November 2012 this time around will be cast on the assumption that getting Barack Hussein Obama *OUT* of the White House is far more important than who replaces him.

The other part of the equation is that the Democrats HAVE to be removed from power in House *AND* Senate. Originally Posted by Sidewinder

Having watched the two debates so far, it doesn't appear to me that any of the GOP candidates have anything even remotely resembling a plan to bring back the 9 million jobs we've lost, or pay off the $14 trillion in debt we currently owe. Nor do I hear anything from them resembling a long-term plan to fix the internal problems we have with energy, education, healthcare, or infrastructure.

We know for a fact, as evidenced by the Reagan administration, along with the last 12 years that tax cuts are not only useless for job creation, but they've done nothing but increased our national debt by over $3 trillion to date. You're certainly not going to make up a $1.4 trillion deficit every year by further reducing revenue. The only real plan(s) I am hearing from any of the candidates with perhaps Ron Paul being the exception, is cut taxes, less regulation, and drill every last crevice in the United States for oil. All of which are tried and proven loosing propositions.

I don't see Obama as an ideal choice, but he still seems a far better option that any of the GOP candidates thus far. Does someone have a different take on these GOP candidates, or is there something I am missing?
Some are going to vote 3rd party. Not me. Originally Posted by Booth

Anybody see the Tea Party pandering tonight? Want Perry? You got him.

i'm selling everything I own so I can have enough money to buy food in the new concentration camps!

JESUS!
I picked "other" because I will be happy to vote for any GOP candidate BUT Perry. I'd much rather see Romney or Huntsman win the nomination. Huntsman is pie in the sky, but I like him.

You'll be doing your part to elect members of Congress all over the U.S.A! Be clear about what you say, man. There are folks here who think they'll have a chance to vote for or against all of those people... especially Barney!

"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."
