I’m no JM fan, but I think this is a pretty good article. Asks a question that people are asking, then gives a nuanced and believable answer.
Gives Perry lots of credit for having clear priorities, a well-honed executive style, and a very effective approach for a politician.
Makes him out to be a formidable and disciplined political competitor.
It's the oldest activist reporter trick.
“...I think this is a pretty good article. Asks a question that people are asking, then gives a nuanced and believable answer.”
Personally, I am ever so WEARY of *nuance.* I much prefer the plain talk of Gov. Perry. By the way, this constant talk of “dropping g’s, etc.” demonstrates nothing less than linguistic ignorance.
In the long run, the article is balanced.....though the implications regarding Perry’s intelligence/knowledge base remain. He does make the case that Gov. Perry understands how to listen and use the assistance of intelligent advisors. To me, this means the guy has good common sense......a quality that is increasingly lacking in Democrat circles.
After reading all of this, I do have to wonder....if this article reveals the growing disenchantment with Obama?
