That Nascar thread was amazing! I still think my favorite thread is the kitten one though. That’s the one that brought me here

I expected Anderson Cooper to belittle them, but he didn’t. He was clever in antagonizing them. “Herman Cain said this about you…” type of remarks.

I generally like Perry, but I don’t think he’s conservative enough for me. I admit I voted against as governor for the same reason, but Texas is generally more conservative than most states. But Perry has done awful at the debates.

I disagree about Santorum, I thought he did well. He and Romney bickered, but Santorum is behind in the polls and he shouldn’t let the leaders get away with a lie.

Bachman and Gingrich were good. Bachman is unwavering in conservatism, but Gingrish has shown he’ll abandon conservative principles if it gets Republicans elected. I’m conservative first, not Republican.

Romney is smooth, but his liberal background bothers me. He’s support gay marriage, struck down abortion restrictions, and established a big government healthcare system while governor.

While I like Cain, the 9% sales tax is a problem. Everybody recognizes the additional revenue stream problem, and then his plan falls apart. He has tied his political ambitions to a plan, so if the plan fails, he fails. And it’ll take years to implement his plan.

Ron Paul’s ideas should be seriously considered because he’s right. Taking away support from Israel, though, sunk his presidency. He’s right about withdrawing from around the world. Why are we still in Germany?

They’re already in full tilt, giving certain politicians the most coverage. They’re setting the table for us to eat at.

Don’t underestimate the liberal media to rally behind Obama when it’s time for the next election.

Michelle Bachman (who won the Iowa Straw Poll) really hurt my impression of Perry with that comment about the semi-coerced vaccinations in the public schools.

Seriously though, Obama is a dead man walking right now. We shouldn’t be looking for the candidate who can beat him. A broom has a great shot to beat him. We need to vote for the person who we WANT in office.

I cannot vote for Romney, not due to his religion but due to his record.

I like Santorum a lot, too. He turned in an excellent performance last week. I would say at the moment he’s my #1 choice.

I’m not entirely against TARP (the bailout) for the purpose it was intended, providing liquidity to the banking system. It ended up being used as a bailout, though, saving investors and bondholders instead of savers. So I won’t hold it against somebody who voted for TARP. The Stimulous, though, was just plain pork.

I’ll cut Romney some slack to a point – I might be ok with his RomneyCare support since it was what Massachussetts wanted. But that’s not leadership – that’s following. He’s certainly not my favorite. I could hold my nose and vote for him if I had to, especially if he selected an ultra conservative for VP. He ranks just above Huntsman.

I find it amusing I’d vote for Perry for President even though I voted against him for governor.
