Jim Hightower may just have finished Perry's hopes for the

[monmouth]

Presidency. He's on with Lawrence and is gutting him. How he cut the funds and Texas is burning and all that good stuff.

[Suich]

1. According to Hightower,

Perry put the "goober" in "goobernatorial!"

:rofl:

[monmouth]

3. Hightower was dishing the dirt on the guy. He's also (Perry) not

very smart. Hightower said he's an inept debater with a thin skin...Bwahaha. Oh he'll do well in this debate. Perhaps his last one.

[Suich]

6. I'm betting he's going to bail on the debate

because of all the fires.

:shrug:

[Cirque du So-What]

2. O'Donnell is a voice in the wilderness

In every other corner of the corporate media, (p)Rick Perry is still the Golden Boy.

[flamingdem]

21. Good, I think he's easier to beat, if not I'm moving to France! nt

[spanone]

4. wanna bet it goes no farther than cable teevee?

[Lisa0825]

5. If only Jim would endorse a real Democrat for governor next time

instead of dumbass Kinky Friedman.

[GreenPartyVoter]

23. Or maybe Jim should run.

[Lisa0825]

24. Nope, I no longer trust his judgement after endorsing that self-promoting windbag.nt

[bowens43]

7. If you think that of this matters you're nieve.

Most voters don't care. They will vote for him because he us a babbling idiot with a Texas, accent who knows all the correct buzz words. Unless he is having an affair. Is gay or a he's muslim he can win.

[duhneece]

22. In my fundie community, just having an 'R' by the candidate's name

Gets the vote. Period. They honestly don't care about issues, morals...just that 'R'.

[Douglas Carpenter]

8. I doubt that Perry's supporters care.

This stuff might eventually be relevant if Perry wins the GOP nomination - But in the mean time any attacks against Perry will be whimsically dismissed as irrelevant by the GOP army of true believers.

[Jim Lane]

16. At this point, Perry's biggest weakness is his moments of making sense on immigration.

The weakness that might hurt him with the Republican base is the stuff like allowing undocumented immigrant children to attend public universities at the in-state tuition rate. That will cost him more votes in the primaries than will any bit of rabid anti-government lunacy.

I agree with you that the lunacies won't matter until the general election.

[progressoid]

18. Yep - 99+ % of America doesn't even know who Jim Hightower is.

[Skittles]

9. repukes only care about stuff that effects THEM

so unless their house burned down, they won't be holding Guv Goodhair accountable

[jberryhill]

10. God wants Perry to be president

You didn't get the memo?

[spirit of wine]

11. Looking at the fires in Texas

I think Baal wants Perry to be President, but 1,000 homeless families is not good governing, hair or no hair (brain or no brain).

[Tx4obama]

12. Jim was on MSNBC last week too talking about Perry. Perry didn't drop out last week...

and I doubt he will drop out this week either.

Probably after a couple of debates Perry will lose support when people hear him try to answer questions.

[upi402]

13. He shoulda taken over after Ann Richards

Texas would be in great shape if Jim was in charge. We all would be better off, and many mountains of dead bodies fewer.

[malaise]

14. That was beautiful

:evilgrin:

[Warpy]

15. Let's hope he mentions those 20 FEMA grants for firefighting

and stars asking Perry just what happened to all that money.

[SpiralHawk]

17. Thank you

Jimmah

[Lil Missy]

19. People who vote for Perry don't watch Lawrence. n/t

[Scurrilous]

20. K & R

:thumbsup:

[bvar22]

25. K&R for Jim Hightower.

Jim Hightower fells the same way about "Pragmatic Centrists" that I do.
