Perry/Rubio- one hell of a scary and potentially winning ticket

[cali]

anyone who thinks this ticket couldn't win, isn't paying attention. Dems need Florida and Rubio has won state wide there. He also brings latino voters in. Perry may be as batshit crazy as Bachmann, but he pulls it off better. (I tend to think there's a certain amount of sexism involved in that).

2. Very scary

Perry frightens me (nutjob), and the RW appears to be mad for Rubio. I haven't educated myself (yet) on Rubio, but based on the love shown him by the right, he can't be good for the country, let alone FL.

3. The Dominionists are definitely on the move. People, you don't

know political the political Hell those people would rain down on America. Their primitive, aggressive and arrogant views almost defy description.

4. What are their views on Social Security and Medicare?

I think attacking them on those two issues is probably
the best angle to go at these creeps!

5. Rubio is just Jeb Bush wearing a different face.

And that is the scary part.

6. Rubio won with less that 50% of the vote and with the mood Florida is in right now

I would not count on him helping the ticket here.

7. I think Perry will still remind people too much of W.

That squinty homespun Texas idiot routine brings back bad memories and Tea Party or nor Tea Party the average person still hates W.

8. I think if the economy is still shitty it won't matter. Pukes could win with a 1 eyed armadillo

Similarly, in 2008 we could have won with anybody. And Barack Obama appeared out of nowhere, like a gift from the gods on our doorstep.

9. Yes, and on so many levels your post is spot on. nt

10. My prediction....

11. Agreed if it happened, but Goodhair will NOT make it on the nat'l stage.

The other caveat, RUBIO definitely is a threat because of his charisma and ability to talk coherently, but whenever you see a Hispanic Rethug, it's a Cuban. So, he doesn't "bring latinos in," mainly drooling Old White Rethugs and the older generation of CIA-Cubans.

As a truly scary nightmare: Jeb Crow Shrub + RUBIO.
