Governor Rick Perry of Texas is my choice to be the Republican nominee for President. The Iowa caucuses are tonight. Here is my top five, in order of preference:

1. Rick Perry

2. Rick Santorum

3. Newt Gingrich

4. Ron Paul

5. Mitt Romney

6. Michelle Bachmann

7. John Huntsman

Gingrich and Santorum have switched spaces due to the despicable and disgusting personal attack by Alan Colmes of Fox News. Colmes actually managed to solidify my support for Santorum with his depraved attack. Instead of harming Santorum, Colmes likely solidified Santorum's base as the politics of personal destruction backfired in a big way.

Paul moves up as I become more convinced of his electability.
