In the nick of time, Perry will blow the dog whistle and Romney's supporters will stampede to enthusiastically lick Perry's simpering face. The Republican nominee for President of the United States in 2012 will be the Pied Piper of Niggerhead Ranch.Jeffyjeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14638910505329162615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3901123.post-5500756043504417862011-11-04T21:55:52.419-05:002011-11-04T21:55:52.419-05:00Newt Gingrich is the November Flavor of the Month,...Newt Gingrich is the November Flavor of the Month, taking the place of August FotM Bachmann, September FotM Perry and October FotM Cain.

Palin runs as third candidate, seeing a chance to get back into the spotlight with no risk of actually winning and having to face the drudgery of being President.
