There is nothing in the style and presentation of Perry that will appeal to Easterners once they see and hear him and get an understanding of how thoroughly he has wrapped his governorship in the Bible.

His baseline resume a two and a half term governor from a high-growth state has appeal. But once they start coming to know Perry directly I can guarantee that they’re not going to warm to him at all.

[Rational Thought]

I've disagreed with the media consensus that Perry will hurt Bachmann and Pawlenty. I'm of the belief that he does hurt Romney (a good thing), as even posts by the OP have claimed.

Now, I'm still not certain Perry is going to run although media reports are mostly indicating otherwise. What I don't see is any enthusiasm for his entrance, outside of some posters here. Maybe that really doesn't matter, IDK.

What I have seen is a fairly steady promotion of the Governor from Fox News, seemingly with pro Perry stories everyday.

So who do you think they will warm up to?
