Good luck to him. He will get a grilling. but the better he does at communicating and presenting firm consetrvative, traditional America solutions to the Obama disaster, the better for us all.

Per SD
"This is just how Rick Perry is. After Hurricane Ike devastated my community, he came here to survey the damage. He did not just walk through here surrounded by security and news cameras and then make a speech. That's not Perry. He showed up in jeans and a work shirt, no cameras, no press conference, and he walked among all of us who had been hit. A hug, a pat on the shoulder, a listening ear, and an encouraging word. He saw to it that emergency shelters were being set up and food and water were available to everyone. When Obama/FEMA refused to help us, Governor Perry set up state funding to help us rebuild our homes and our lives. My home is at 'ground zero' where Ike came ashore. We all took tremendous damage. FEMA sent me a check two months later for $600 dollars. Governor Perry set up the Recovery Fund to help us all rebuild. That is what a true leader and a true Christian does. That's my Governor! I can't wait to see America under the caring wing of Rick Perry."

[Cincinatus' Wife]

I agree. With luck they’ll ask important questions and not continue the beat-down of tired gotcha media hits.

[o_zarkman44]

Romney must buy the left media group think that Fox News is bad. Yes they are bad for statists who won’t answer tough questions by hiding behind a MSM that won’t ask those questions. Romney is a chickens#it At least Perry will make an appearance although he too is a statist of a slightly lesser degree than Romney. but still a statist.

[Sacajaweau]

I’m hoping Perry is the eventual choice. This idea that we don’t want a politician as President is absurd. The last election was all about experience.

[RetSignman]

I wish Fox would rethink Baier as the moderater of that show.

He constantly gets ‘flustered’ when he has to pose a question to the panel which may viewed as controversial or too partisan no matter how true it may be.

He’s just too timid and I think the Peter Principle clearly applies here.

[Reagan Man]

Perry’s been on the hot seat for quite some time.

He’ll do just fine in the Center Seat.

[smoothsailing]

I expect Gov. Perry will do just fine in this type of format. I’m looking forward to watching.

[RitaOK]

Thank you, CW, for the head’s up. This is the big 90 day push for the candidates to prepare their case for going into these upcoming primaries. Rick has one, and I like it.

Winning first, or second, keeps the campaigns alive for the delegate hunt. Good luck to Rick.

[lonestar]

Romney doesn’t need to be interviewed on Fox News...their talking heads are speaking up for him 24/7!

[Quilla]

Thank you CW for the post and shield for the ping.

[isthisnickcool]

Anyone that knows Perry understands that you cannot count him out. He is in the game to stay.

[gardencatz]

And yet, FOX is in the tank for Romney. Go figure.

[bgill]

Well, isn’t that special.

[dragnet2]

The second Perry called me "Heartless" for refusing to support aiding and abetting illegal aliens, the son of a b*tch lost my vote.

Spit*

[altura]

Yes, if he’ll just stay relaxed and be himself, he’ll ace this interview. I’m gonna watch it.

[altura]

Another twit whose feelings are still hurt because of heartless.

Maybe he should have been called brainless.

And by the way, the word heartless was never used.
