Rick Perry had strong evangelical and military supporters. I’m sure they went to Gingrich, and I have no doubt that those who were already in Gingrich’s camp became more enthusiastic supporters of Newt’s with Gov. Perry’s backing.
btw — I’ve alerted the mod to correct the source as “Boston Herald.
We were ready to vote for Perry, sad as it was to have him drop out, when yesterday morning arrived we supported Newt.
