KBH is a dead-center moderate. Perry is slightly to the right of her. Neither one of them belives in closing the border.

I have met Rick Perry. Of all the politicians I have ever met, from GWB to Mark White, Bill Clements, Ann Richards, Phil Gramm, and countless state and high-ranking military officials, Rick Perry is the biggest ass of them all. Anything that seems kind about Rick Perry is solely an act when the cameras are on. He is all about himself, no two ways about it.

That said, Perry is far and away better for the job than KBH, even if it’s a bit like choosing between Obama and McCain.

Mexico is getting so out of control they may have to demand that border is closed whether they want to or not and with a recession, politically they cannot afford to push for illegals.

Had a similiar experience with Rick Perry in 1996, at Rice University, when he was running for Congress (he lost to Steve Stockman).

He was paranoid, worrying about whether reporters were in the room. He mentioned it several times. He was afaid that if he opened up, someone would “mis-quote” him.

I thought “Hey, if you are telling the truth, your own convictions, what are you worried about?”
