I had a former co-worker (Thad) stop by the store a couple months ago to tell us he’s leaving for Texas. I asked him why and he said “better job opportunities with much better pay”. Another co-worker said “you’re moving to the state of our next President”. Thad shook his head and said “I doubt it”. I asked Thad if he liked Perry and he said, “No, he doesn’t know what he’s doing”. I then said to him, “your reason for moving to Texas completely contradicts what you just said about Perry as Perry is the reason Texas is doing so well economically”. He just got this look upon his face like a calf looking at a new gate and said, “well, maybe”. I told him there's no maybe about it, only fact.

This was a tough interview. I think Gov. Perry did a very good job handling the questions, many of which were "gotcha" questions. I hope Perry can hone the skills neccesary for the (too)many debates ahead.
We are getting very close to the first primarys. Right now there are too many conservative candidates(Perry, Cain, Bachmann, Santorum and Paul). They are splitting the conservative vote and enabling Romney to run free with the moderate establishment Repub vote. I do not want another moderate Repub to have to hold my nose and vote for. McCain, the two Bushs, Bob Dole were not my kind of conservatives. They were moderates. Romney is actually a liberal. I would like to see Sarah Palin chime in and endorse a candidate closest to her conservative stand.
We all need to get behind one conservative and defeat first Romney, then obama.

Tom, yes and we still have more to go through. It is not an easy election like you said there are so many candidates but that will dwiindle after awhile.
