In Iowa, Perry Bus Tour Makes Last Stops of 2011
DES MOINES — After the last two scheduled stops of his tour today, Gov. Rick Perry made an impromptu visit to a local precinct leader and knocked on a few doors in a West Des Moines neighborhood.
Accompanied a gaggle of reporters, Perry signed autographs and met several neighbors who came out of their houses to shake his hand. At one point, he called for an aide to bring a map of Texas from the bus so he could point out Paint Creek, describing how he "literally" helped put it on the map as governor.
"I appoint the commissioners there, so ...

Doesn't he get it; it over! Why does he keep wasting money; he sure is NOT going to be elected for Gov. here in Texas if that is what he is trying to do...who knows what evil is learking in his head.

Last campaign stop of the year. This is my last blog post of the year exposing the 'new confederacy' candidate from Texas.
On the opposition side we had quite a scare when polling numbers came in high. Plans were formulated for mobilizing the anti-Perry campaign including printed matter and road trips in opposition. Once the shine wore off and polling results came back to earth these plans were shelved.
Then came Anita's call that her Dick was not going to quit the presidential race, EVER. Which poses the specter that to oppose Perry's race would be like opposing Kinky Friedman, a forever non-campaign.
Reality began to sit in as polling numbers drooped. This along with some divine intervention causing world class stumbles by the fabled Mr. Perry.
Then truly great results came in. Perry lost Virginia prior to a single ballot being cast. This may as well have been due to divine interventions just prior to the season for the celebration of the birth of Christ. A spirit of rejoice and festiviness was in the air, presents were exchanged and good times were had by all.
Now it seems the cracks in Perry's political machine are beging to show. There are reports the minders in the campaign are starting to snipe.
We are cautiously hopeful, while we prepare our political attack bombs, this sniping will lead to, ahem, defections from the Perry White Star Lines. A truly stellar result may be at hand, the sinking of this ship without even hitting an iceberg. We are encouraged by Perry's 1% polling predictions in New Hampshire, and 8-14% polling numbers in Iowa. January 3rd we hope will be a day to remember.
It does seem now that Perry will have to endure a return to Texas to a celebration of long knives. Heck he might even have to promise favors for $5,000. This will be his first loss at the ballot box. And surely not his last.
Now even though we hail from Texas, we do not hope Perry looses his future governor elections. The reason? It would be sweat justice for Texans to have to put up with him after all the perposterous things he has said in this election cycle. Afterall what better way to put up a stiff upper lip when embarassed than to close ranks around the baffoon. Or maybe it is because we prefer a slow death rather than a fast and quick take out for the Anti-Christ.
In any event 2012 looks to be a great year a coming.

Inv. A. Bryant,
Thank you.
This pen is not very active, it has been dedicated to a short list of causes. The cause of the hour, the cause of today, was dedicated one day to a man of color. The dedication was that the prejudice exihibited would die that day, and my pen would fight to kill when it could vestiges of the same prejudice. This pen acts today in honor of that man and all the civil war participants.

Well what will Iowa voters respond to, the glitz of a big money campaign or the ten year record of debt and mismanagement?
