Rick’s more muscular assault styled political presence isn’t selling so well this go around when contrasted with Trump.

Something about Trump, his quick mind, lends intellectual gravitas to the noise he is making. Trump can gravitate from his point, to another story, and come right back to where he left off and complete his point. Rick is a little over eager and overwhelms his point.

“in for the long haul”

Why, Rick, why?

Many on this board will disagree...but I liked him as governor. But he is going nowhere with the presidential bid.

Of course, he hasn’t asked me for my opinion.

Remember what Conservative Treehouse said: (1) NONE of these candidates could stay in the race without GOPe SuperPAC or dark money. And (2) They are in the race for one reason: to ensure a Jeb/GOPe victory

The only thing wrong with that, in regards to Perry, is that he and the Bushes aren't real copacetic.

Of course, politics make strange bedfellows.

Rick Perry will stay in until his Chamber of Commerce masters tell him he can drop out.

Embarrassing to be that much of a puppet.

If anyone ever asks you if Rick Perry is smarter now than several years ago, politely tells them “No”.

He proves it again and again.

Remember, we don't run betting pools on FR, with the winner being the one who guesses closest to the day Perry suspends his campaign, effectively dropping out, which means I'm not betting that he'll do it before September 30. Thanks Red Steel.

Yeah, but he could be getting paid. I don’t mean anything like a conspiracy. A candidate who does not have a gubment job who is getting federal matching funds qualifies for a salary equal to that of the office he runs for less taxes. In Perry’s case that would be about $266,000.

“He has got to find a way to make an organic moment in political time gel with the justifications for his candidacy,” Rottinghaus said.


What a pile of steaming BS.

Perry is at the point where kids and noobs get a foot into politics. He’s so desperate and so broke anyone who volunteers to work for him (for nothing) is given a fancy title to put on their resume. “Former Director of Media Outreach for Rick Perry 2016....”
