Tee-Hee.
Perry is oblivious to that fact that voters are wary of a losing candidate with money to burn. Perry’s deluge of Fox ads News cost him $975,000; he’s spent $2.8 million on ads the last few weeks alone, begging for support in Iowa, NH and SC.......far more than any other candidate in the race.
Perry has engineered the losingest strategy in presidential politics, to date: personally insulting and demeaning the people he needs to vote for him; cueing his supporters to insult and demean them; showing his contempt for the process. And he has the gall to ask for support?
Perry’s three ads — a bio spot, an anti-Obama spot, and even one stupidly characterizing himself as an “outsider” —— are ludicrous.
All of Perry’s moves show his utter contempt for voters and for the American electoral process. Long past time for a candidate polling in single digits to wake up to reality and go home.
(1) Perry has been raising money for years to run; he entered the race with three PACs (that we know of)......teeming with money.
(2) Perry cunningly did not actually enter the first contest-—the Iowa Straw Poll——instead he calculatedly manipulated the vote from Texas. That was supposed to take him over the top. He got a pathetic 700 write-ins——but there he was front and center, posing in front of Iowa banners-—waving the victory sign——as if he was the winner.
He stomp ed all over Bachmann’s first place win with 4000 votes-—she worked long and hard and spent money in the state.”Team player” Perry threw his hat in the very day Bachmann won-—stopping her hard-earned momentum.
Due to his debating fiascos, Perry went from top dog to gutter turd in no time.
