After GOP presidential debate will Perry keep his staying power?
by Joseph Earnest September 7, 2011
*************** UPDATE******************
Debate speaking turns: Perry-18, Romney-11, Bachmann-10, Huntsman-8, Paul-8, Santorum-6, Cain-6, Gingrich-6.
After the GOP debate, it is obvious the Republicans are determined to fight as a single impenetrable unit to defeat Obama. The best part of the debate was when Newt Gingrich called out John Harris of Politico and the media for trying to cause Republicans to fight each other. Gingrich stopped short of calling media practitioners "disinformation agents."
Brian Williams then attempted to play the race card about Whites having more money than Blacks, but Perry put him back in check and reminded him that regardless of race, it is important to create jobs and let people use the money they earn, the way they want.
There is an old Chinese saying that goes: "Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, you feed him for life."
Overall, the debate was dominated by Perry and Romney who were given more airtime than any of the other candidates. Rick Perry did not back off, back up, back away or back down from his beliefs, which made him look strong to his base.
The media's dislike for Ron Paul was obvious, who was at one time cut off but insisted he finish just like everybody else. Still trying to figure out Cain's 999 plan.
==========================================
Newscast Media HOUSTON, Texas -- As each Republican presidential candidate attempts to convince voters that he or she should be nominated and eventually elected president, all eyes will be on Texas Gov. Rick Perry who only recently joined the race and is the current frontrunner. Perry has survived the barrage of attacks from conservative detractors and disinformation agents, yet at the presidential debate, he faces seven candidates who will attempt to poke holes into his plans for America.
Leading the pack is America's CEO, Mitt Romney, as he likes to refer to himself. Romney is very strong in New Hampshire, while Perry is solid in South Carolina. Perry argues he has a 10-year track record of being number one in facilitating job creation in his state, while Romney argues his track record of creating jobs in the corporate world by building businesses, spans over two decades.
Romney has explained that he will lower the current corporate tax cuts from 35 percent to 25 percent, and will eliminate taxes on interest, dividends and capital gains for people making less than $200,000 a year. As he continues to unveil his plan across America, Romney believes that his overall plan would lead to 4 percent annual growth in the U.S. economy, and create over 10 million new jobs during his first term, if elected president.
Rick Perry's argument is simple. Perry argues he has helped build the nation's strongest economy, and since 2009, more than 40 percent of all net new jobs in America have been created in Texas. His mantra is: "Don't spend all the money. Keep taxes low and regulations fair. Finally, invest aggressively in job creation."
Participating in the September 7, 2011 debate at the Reagan Library will be: Rick Perry, Ron Paul, Jon Huntsman, Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich, Michele Bachmann and Herman Cain. Add Comments>>
