I wouldn't count on it. When any governor of any state can tout the kind of job creation Texas has, people are going to give him the credit or at least most of it. It just doesn't register in a persons brain that a man could be Governor for ten years and Lt. Governor before and have nothing to do with the job situation. He doesn't even have to explain the details of how he got there.

"Citizens of (insert state) while the Obama economy was busing losing millions of job across America, in Texas we were adding jobs. In fact since Obama took office Texas has added almost 50% of the jobs created in the U.S.A. How did we do it? We didn't spend all the money, we passed tort reform and we keep regulation simple and predictable, making Texas an attractive state for job creators. We have a balanced budget and billions in the rainy day fund and we don't even have a state income tax. This is what happens when Conservative legislature and a Conservative Executive branch apply Conservative principles to government."

That would be a speech Perry could give and you're telling me people in Ohio are going to say "He sounds like Bush, I think I'll vote for Obama". Like the boys on NFL Countdown say "Come on man!"

I’m not a man and I submit you don’t understand the sensibilities of most people in the Northeast and the Coasts if you think Perry is going to fly with them. He’d be “God Squaded” out of their consideration before they had to even contemplate why they were so distrusting of and put off by him.
