I'd like to see the 2008 and 2012 Ron Paul conversions to Ted Cruz, as well.

Because as an ex-governor he has no power to make anyone’s new vaccine mandatory.

Serves his right for backing Dewherst in the Senate race rather than Cruz.

I’m not a big Ted Cruz fan (though I could become one). But Perry is simply a weak candidate. I can’t see him surviving the early primaries.

I guess it’s because his former supporters just don’t have a heart.

Here’s why: Conservatives see Ted Cruz as a younger version of Ronald Reagan. It’s not a coincidence that Cruz’s first public rally was at an Evangelical university.

Kind of feel bad for Rick Perry. He looks the part, as did Romney, I guess. But he doesn’t have the intellect, which sounds funny because most pols are not very smart at all.

Rick Perry was a good governor of Texas two terms and likely would have been elected had he chosen to run for a third term, which no one has done ... previously (run for a third term as Governor).
So potentially He has a good record.

Maybe they know that he did a terrible job on the border.

Or that he brought imams into TX schools to teach Islam to kids.

Or that he has attended Bilderberg meetings.

Or that TX debt more than doubled under Perry.

Or that he supported the Trans-Texas highway corridor.

Or that in 1988, he supported Al Gore for president. He was Gore's TX campaign chairman.

Or that he issued an EO that every schoolgirl in TX had to be injected with Gardasil. TX lawmakers had to block this order.

Perry is a phony and NOT a conservative. Brad Thor should be ashamed for endorsing him so ardently.

This article, written by Capt. Obvious himself, is spot on. :-)

Why did he even run? By the time he announced he had nothing new to offer.

I like Perry, but it is time for him to step aside.

Easy to see why: Cruz speaks English.
