Okay, as many of you already know, I don’t agree with Rick Perry on some things. Heck, I think there were better candidates for Governor in the past. But you have to give credit where credit is due. He’s helped Texas remain profitable, created jobs in the State and kept our taxes low and kept intrusive government at bay. That’s pretty much what most people want in a government. Sure, I’m not really happy how he’s treated the illegal immigration crisis. I think he could have done a lot more, something along the lines that Jan Brewer has done in Arizona.

And like many of you, I’m not really happy with the candidates that the Conservatives have fielded for the 2012 Presidential election. That’s why I would support a Conservative like Rick Perry for President in 2012! Of the candidates that are already out there, my favorites would be Herman Cain and Michelle Bachmann. But I don’t know enough about Herman Cain and I think Michelle Bachmann is a good choice, just not the best choice at this time.

I also think that Rick is the only one who could soundly defeat Obama in 2012. Rick may be many things, but several there are several things he’s proven.

  1. He knows how to run a successful campaign. And he knows how to defeat Liberal Democrats. After the thrashing he gave Bill White, I think it was just some practice to move onto a National stage.
  2. He has a positive history of creating jobs and getting an economy moving. Not only that, but once it’s moving he can keep it going. Nearly every State in the Union is suffering, Texas has remained the bright spot in how to do things. Low taxes, favorable business climate, forward thinking leaders.
  3. Perry is likable and charismatic. McCain had a likable issue. Sure, people wanted like him, but it was hard. Perry on the other hand is a great BS’er and could probably sell ice cubes to Eskimos.
  4. Obama has done such a poor job, that someone like Perry could keep the issues front and center. That’s a place where Obama doesn’t want to play.

I think I’ll go ahead and go out on a limb and say it will be a Perry/Bachmann 2012 campaign. Go ahead and mark that one down in your book and put me down as having said it first! It would be a wildly successful train that the Obama/Biden station couldn’t stop!
