Hmm, I wonder what he'll campaign on to stand out in the crowd...

[chelsea0011]

1. Bet he does't have the balls to pray to Jesus during his announcement

[Inuca]

2. What a surprise!

This being said, I am afraid he will be no Fred Thompson of comic relief memory.

[Maeve]

3. and from the late, great Molly Ivins

"Next time I tell you someone from Texas should not be president of the United States, please pay attention."

[Renew Deal]

4. And he'll win the nomination.

;)

[SoapBox]

5. The only good part of this is that now ALL of America can see how frack'n crazy he is...

and radical...and extremist...and racist...and bigoted...and how much of a hypocrite he is...and, well it just goes on and on.

[AngryOldDem]

6. He scares the shit out of me. n/t

[hamsterjill]

7. Me, too!!

And I'm a Texan.

[Javaman]

15. believe it or not, he scares most Texans.

not just the ones on the left.

[DLine]

8. We are saved!!!!

Because the last bible thumping evangelical Texas governor who ran for President worked out great!

:sarcasm:

[Lone_Star_Dem]

9. He's no longer just Texas' problem, but the whole Nation's.

This is a really bad day for America. :(

[awoke_in_2003]

10. well, his praying last saturday didn't bring any rain...

hopefully he can keep the streak alive :)

[Javaman]

13. Frankly, after his little prayer jamboree, I'm not sure if he's running for prez or pope. nt

[blueclown]

11. Hate to say it

But he may be our next president. The American people elected George W Bush twice. Rick Perry is George W Bush II.

[Imajika]

12. I do believe Perry will win the nomination...

I also think he is no Shrub, he's far worse.

If our economic environment is such that Rick Perry manages to become President, he would almost certainly bring in a ton of baggers with him to the House and probably recapture the Senate as well.

We would be well and truly f***ed.

[Javaman]

14. he makes moron* look like a regular genius.

I had friend who used to work as lobbyists in the Capital on both sides of the isle. They both would say time and again, "perry is probably one of the most stupid people in the world".

if cement head perry gets selected, he will be nothing more than the empty shirt puppet for the corporations he has always been.
