Craig, keep the heat on Perry! LOL

Romney doing well with the Tea Party doesn't fit the story line, so everyone ignores it.

Perry...Perry....bo perry...banana pana ....boperry....fi fi fo...ferry..Perry.

Maybe that will help him.

He may do well in Florida. There are a lot of elderly there. With a little luck, they'll see the name Perry, and think he's the 50's barber turned crooner, and give him a vote. But only if he sings, "That's Amore"

Ellie,

Those prophets need to get out more. Maybe whisper in a few million ears. Especially those being polled.
