    You think Bachmann is not more crazy than Gov. Perry, why?

    Baachmaan is a lunatic and Perry is a religious fundamentalist which is the religious equivalent of a lunatic.

    Okay, personally I would take Perry because while he may be a religious fundamentalist, at least he is somewhat intellegent, unlike Bachmann. Perry is the kind of person who would offend you, but Bachmann just makes you lower your head and sigh.

    But the thing I dont understand is why are you picking the second worst candidate in the election? (third worst if Donald Trump runs).

    Because no one is good, and Perry's track record and the fact he is not Romney or Gingrich makes him the best of a bad situation. I can't wait till we have some good guys again like Christie or Huckabee.

    No the fact that Romney and Gingrich arent Perry automatically makes them better. At least Romney is semi- moderate and at least Gingrich supports global warming.

    Romney isn't Conservative enough for my liking. Also Gingrich cheated on his cancer stricken wife, and have her the divorce papers in her hospitel room! Anyone who does that is not fit to lead America, and just to top it off he is so arrogant. He is convinced he will win the ticket.

    You are trying to tell me you are not voting for Gingrich because he is arrogant but you are voting for the most arrogant person running in Rick Perry. He called social security a ponzi scheme and was stupid enough to make a campaign ad discriminating against gays and calling Christians the victims. If there is nobody good out there (which you have stated ass well that there is not) just vote independent or just dont vote.

    Okay, I respecfully disagree. I find Gingrich to be way worse, but I can see how people think Perry is arrogant. Also I didn't say I was voting. All the candidates are so bad I am only giving my support, not voting.

    I would never vote when the GOP candidates are this bad. I'm waiting till 2016. With Trump, Palin, Christie, etc it is going to be a bloodbath!

    Trump is an asshole. Christie is just amazing. He's not very well liked here in New Jersey (considering we are a democratic state with a republican governor) but I believe he is the best man for the job.

    Well at least we can agree on that. Christie is awesome. I will be backing him. Trump may be mean, with that money and mouth its going to be interesting. I do dislike him.

    In my opinion, American conservatism means holding back progression which has proven to work.

    I only hold some Conservative values dear, not all of them , and Romeny dosen't share those values. Rick Perry does share all of my values, but I do not share all of his.

    If you live in Poland he is a hero as well. And why would a historian consider him a coward?

    To my knowledge he fought every battle that presented itself to him in Africa, and he only left becuase the Austrians were invading Italy and were a threat to France again, which I would say is a pretty good reason to leave.
