I’d rather vote for Rick Perry before I chose to vote for Newt. I’d choose Newt before Romney, Huntsman or Paul but that’s about it.
Perry is straight up slime. He is worse than even your average politician. I have friends high up in the Republican Party of Texas and they all say the same thing. The guy will literally say anything to push his polls numbers up but will govern in a far different way. He’s a terrible debater. I honestly think Obama could out-debate him. He was slaughtered in debates by Paul-ite libertarian Debra Medina in the Texas Governor’s debates last year. I don’t think she’s ever been elected to anything other than Party Chairs. Debra Medina would have been a better choice than Slick Rick!!!
