Well, you can rest easy. Before Reagan woke up after age 30 in 1964 and became a republican he was a HUGE supporter of FDR and the New Deal!
Al Gore was as conservative a democrat as there ever was until he realized he could make $billions of the ChiExg for carbon trading.
I have yet to see Perry present an anethema to small government even when he WAS a democrat and supported Tort Reform for which the democrats and the Texas Trial Lawyers crucified him. That will make anybody wake up. Can you name one policy Perry has carried out that supports big government?
Gardasil and the super highway. Plus, his acceptance w/o hesitation of multi-billions in stimulus money to balance Tx. irresponsible spending. If I rate Palin a 98 and Obama a 0, and I do, I’d give Perry a 50 or 60, maybe.
His newborn interest in sanctuary cities and national prayer meetings are laudable, but it’s hard to trust his sincerity at this point. I really have a problem with in-state benefits for illegals as well, not to mention his rejection of the WEAK Az. law for being too STRICT! America NEEDS better, IMO, and several candidates are much better in my evaluation. Cordially, Bob
