I guess with his giant elite brain, Peter Grier has a passel of down home idioms he'll be using to regale his readership in the months ahead.
The elite media sees a Conservative who loves their country as a bumpkin, a chawbacon, a churl, a clodhopper, a cornball, a countryman, a hayseed, a hillbilly, a hick, a rube, a rustic, a yokel....
The elite msm call people who love America provincial: people of local or restricted interests or outlook; person lacking urban polish or refinement.

It is indeed too late for him to be viable for 2012.
He needed to stop blocking legislation to enforce emmigration in Texas two years ago to be credible. He failed to track to the center early enough to be believable.
He remains the Kelo vs. New London eminent domain abuse poster boy.
The best he can do is govern to the right, stay out of the legislature’s way, and try in 2016.
Whether it is too late for him to get in will depend on Bachmann’s momentum and the extent that she has already captured the support of the conservative wing of the party. The extent to which she has done this will determine how much room Perry has to run. Prior to Bachmann catching fire in the wake of the New Hampshire debate, Perry had a lot of room to run. That may no longer be the case. Of course he can still get in, but his path to victory is a little less clear now. Has Bachmann won over support from those within the party who could propel Perry to victory, or will a Perry entrance in the race result in that support moving to him? It seems like a hard one to call.
It's either Palin, Perry, or Palin/Perry in my mind. I've been researching/investigating for days and saw something late last nite, that put Perry back on the radar for me, and that is his support for Israel.
With that said, I will not sit out the election (have never done so) because we must get rid of these marxists in the WH/administration before all of this takes solid root.
WE MUST have people with clear direction. Palin and Perry both are/have been Governors and Governors of liberty loving states no less. They are in a completely different realm than the politicians currently throwing their hats in the ring.
2012 is do or die for the United States of America. That's it...we either exterminate the maggots in the WH and cut the rot and infected out of our system or we die. THIS IS IT...PERIOD
Somebody appears to be missing. Perhaps the author should have spent less time on the cutesy turns of phrases and more on verifying the completeness of his list. Sounds like a style over substance problem. Or should I say, "All hat and no cattle?"
(Meanwhile, as he and other candidates play the "I'm not gonna let the media/elites decide my timetable for entering the race", we have CINO's like Romney quietly building up a warchest, and planning how he's going to take the first few primaries from any "undeclared candidate")
But hey, at least the media won't have a hand in any of it. Which is, of course, the most important thing this election cycle.
The MSM thought that was too early.
The headline is BS. Parrot yapping away.
