LOL! You probably didn’t mean to be funny, but somehow that’s how I took it. Something about that— “forward with zero staff”, just cracked me up. lol! It must be the barometer today. :)

Good. He seems a decent guy, just not Presidential material. We need another dozen to drop out similarly.

Like Huckabee and W. Bush, likely a great next door neighbor.
As POTUS, not so much.

I’ll never understand why he threw his hat in the ring in the first place ... I guess Jeb!Jeb? paid him to thinking he’d muck up TX for Cruz.

Perry has three reasons for dropping out, two of which he can name. Totally knows those two.

Just wasn't meant to be

Trump has raised the bar for what it's going to take to come across as Presidential. It never seemed that Perry had that compelling presence to inspire people with a vision. Add to that, after GWB, maybe people aren't real eager to have another President whose resume is "Governor of Texas".

FINALLY! Now if Graham, Huckabee, Gilmore, Paul and a few others that are under 1% would only do the same.

Actually, I did mean to be funny.

If he can makeup with Trump, just think of the hair on that ticket.
