An unnamed Republican campaign veteran told the Washington Post that Texas Governor Rick Perry has decided to run for President, though the official word from the Perry camp is still a definite maybe, stating that Mr. Perry has surveyed the field and decided to get in the race later this summer. The thinking from republican sources is that apparent front-runner Mitt Romney “does not reflect the Republican Party” and is therefore vulnerable to a credible challenge from the right, especially after Mr. Romney’s recent squishy remarks on global warming. So the Texas governor is running as a climate change denier.
In a Stanford University report researches have found that “candidates running for office can gain votes by taking green positions and might lose votes by expressing skepticism about climate change.” A study entitled “The Impact of Candidates’ Statements about Climate Change on Electoral Success in 2010: Experimental Evidences,” reveals that taking a “green” position on global warming attracts votes from Democrats and Independents, while expressing skepticism about the warmist theory alienates those same voters. On the Republican side there was no significant impact either way, so it looks like Perry intends to look to his base.

Mr Goodhair cares NOTHING for the people of Texas, or for the US, for that matter! He is just fine with polluting our air, water and land. His nuclear waste dump is just miles from my son and grandsons! He is ok with fracking, and is fine with setting our water on fire! He thinks that coal fired electricity plants are good for business….but doesn’t care about the air quality for the elderly or children! He has just about made Texas the laughing stock of America! And will continue to do so in a national run political office!
Take it from an active Texan—-FIGHT—DO NOT LET HIM GET ELECTED!!!
All he, and other pols like him are, represents as to the ‘climate change deniers’ is the new shills with using that reality as the talking points to surpress what this country once was, a leader in innovation and advancing growth envied by the rest of the World. We started down the road some forty years ago and the brakes were locked on that once promising neww addition to our economy and economic growth by the industries wanting to maintain their wealth in what already was. The shills like perry get their so called base, who need the jobs in and ability to hand down to the coming generations what ours folks did, to muster up the parroting meme’s as others now lead and we’re not even following, those others now have the trades and ecperience leading to the innovative work force needed!!
