The last member of the House of Representatives to be elected POTUS?

[lawgator1]

James Garfield. 130 years ago.

Not good news for Bachmann, Paul, or Ryan.

 

[volsfan75]

Not a problem for Rick Perry.

You're right. He has his own.

Like secession and calling the fed chief a traitor.

What an idiot.

 

[golfballs]

maybe it's overdue

Not a problem for Rick Perry.

All out attack being waged against him already. Being called a racist by the hacks on MSNBC.

Certainly a valid mathematical theory that could apply to the situation.

He brought it on himself. Maybe the racist calls are a bit much, but he flapped his gums when he should be in Stealth mode

as LG has shown, that is the left's favorite tactic

 

[lawgator1]

Don't know about the racism charge. I haven't heard anything about that.

But he has gone way overboard in the anti-government Tea Party rhetoric, imo. And in the opinion of guys like Karl Rove, too.

He's simply too far right. My guess is Obama folks would love to see him win it.

It's their only tactic

Just like the Carter folks loved to see Reagan win it? As far left as Barry is, if he can get elected anyone can get elected.

Just saying that there would be so much ammunition to turn off independent voters.

Plus, as has been pointed out so often, he is basically a clone of Bush in terms of speech and mannerisms. That's going to hurt him, bad.

 

[KiffinKiller]

His platform and history should hurt him.

If people would pay attention and if the media would report it there is way more ammunition against Barry

 

[lawgator1]

You be the judge:

 

[utvolpj]

and LG once again crosses into gsvol land. If that's all the left has they might as well just concede the WH

Are you kidding?

The parallels to Bush are HUGE.

And you are damn right, the Dems are going to hammer that home for 6 months solid if Perry is the nominee.

 

[utvolpj]

nope not kidding. You've gone full Simple Jack on this

but, but, but Bush....

 

[volfanjustin]

They were governors of the same state. Oh my goodness that should disqualify him from being elected.

I hope Barry tries to run on his record, I guarantee you he and his friends in the media ignore his record and runs far away from it.

 

[KiffinKiller]

This is a non-issue if somebody decent wins the ticket.

Last and only incumbent to be re-elected with 7%+ unemployment. FDR.

Talking about Obama?

They definitely would try to make him out to be the next Bush.

I think he would lose to Obama. Romney stands a better chance.

lol. would not question him if I saw him on the street.
