“The guy calling in to the talk show said Perry was a RINO just like Romney.”
Please check all the facts — I think Dems are really afraid of Perry, because he really could beat Obama.
Perry was and is against Obamacare.
Perry Rejects “Obamacare,” but State Agency Pushes On
“Republican Gov. Rick Perry has made no secret of his disdain for federal health reform, or for one of its key tenets, a Travelocity-like state insurance marketplace in which consumers could choose from public and private health plans.
The threat of Perry’s veto pen even derailed legislation by one of his fellow Republican “anti-Obamacare” colleagues, who fears that if state lawmakers do not implement a health insurance exchange of their own, the federal government will do it for them - in his view an even worse fate.
But among Perry’s gubernatorial peers, his stance on the health insurance exchange appears to be losing popularity: Politico reported last week that Republican Govs. Haley Barbour of Mississippi, Mitch Daniels of Indiana and Scott Walker of Wisconsin - even as they continue to oppose the federal health care program overall - are taking steps to comply with that piece of the law.”
You need to quit listening to bovine secretions and do some research...Perry is only a RINO to a vocal minority who would call anyone a RINO except Adolph Hitler!
