I think Perry’s running right against the “new tone” and against “compassionate conservatism” is a great thing. I frankly don’t trust Perry as such a super tough conservative, but it’s a great idea and if he were to win and then to govern the way he is talking now, that’s a good thing.

I firmly believe the new tone and the compassionate conservatism is what ruined the Republican brand and what gave us Obama. So firmly, I have written about it at length:
