As a Cain supporter I can vouch that the requirement is all must hail Perry. But that’s neither here nor there. If you don’t like a comment made by an individual explain why you don’t like it. Don’t just come out spewing.
Accusing Erick of being “on his commode” while comparing his post to “a bowel download of equal quality” is just attacking. Make your case or we go to the mods requesting the weapon d’jour.
Mr. Erickson claims that Mitt Romney CAN’T beat Obama. In other words, he has already raised his white flag 10 months before election day.
And Newt Gingrich captured what % of Independent voters in Iowa after his anti-Bain/ Wall Street broadside (fact is, I left Gingrich after those attacks)? According to Erickson, said background is a disqualifier for Mitt.
and he would know what it is like to take computer property.

And I guarantee the Mr. Erickson will grovel for a Romney interview on his radio program. Or, he remain a stubborn anti-Romney through 11/6/12. I’m betting on a flip-flop, though.
Ron Paul went after Santorum. Why hasn’t ron Paul gone after Romney?
Santorum did ok.
Gingrich made other good points and will improve his position
But nobody really took on Romney.
This is why we need IMMEDIATE consolidation of anti romney. SC could be the last shot to take him on but it won’t happen w/ a few splitting anti romney vote.
Hopefully they’ll review the tape and go after Romney in the 2nd debate in the morning.
Here is my theory. the moderators who are flaming libs, set up questions to protect Romney. They want him. It’s up to the candidates to go off the board and go after him.
We don’t have much time. the fat lady is warming up folks. SC is it.
Gingrich has the only shot. he’s got the goods but just needs the support. Santorum can’t do it, neither can Perry. Perry wants to go back into Iraq? right or wrong, its a total loser. total fail in getting elected.

Romney took one of Gingrich’s lines about Obama turning U.S. into Europe. BUT what did Romney do in Mass! Government health care and government blocking private charities associated with religion? GEEZ!
Did Romney ever speak out against this? Has he recanted his support of government run healthcare?

the person who can do that is who will have to take on Romney, Perry is the only one who has damaged Romney. Newt for all his talk did not even try, and Santorum, well he is as bad a Newt, these insider the beltway millionairs have no plan to take our country back, how do you think they made those millions. If people want to beat Romney, they get behind Perry, if not then Romney is it. Period.

by saying that he would send troops back into Iraq. His previous debate performances have made it obvious that he’s too stupid to be an elected official of any kind, but the remark about returning and re-ooccupying Iraq was compelling evidence that he’s somewhat insane, as well. So much for the prospect of his coming back in South Carolina. Surely even conservatives don’t support that.

Santorum did ok.
Gingrich made other good points and will improve his position
But nobody really took on Romney.
This is why we need IMMEDIATE consolidation of anti romney. SC could be the last shot to take him on but it won’t happen w/ a few splitting anti romney vote.
Hopefully they’ll review the tape and go after Romney in the 2nd debate in the morning.
Here is my theory. the moderators who are flaming libs, set up questions to protect Romney. They want him. It’s up to the candidates to go off the board and go after him.
We don’t have much time. the fat lady is warming up folks. SC is it.
Gingrich has the only shot. he’s got the goods but just needs the support. Santorum can’t do it, neither can Perry. Perry wants to go back into Iraq? right or wrong, its a total loser. total fail in getting elected.
