I just heard Perry on Hannity’s show, and he said that one of the main reasons that he joined the GOP was b/c of Ronald Reagan. Yeah right, he loved Reagan so much that he voted for and worked for Carter and Mondale, and then went on to chair Algore’s ‘88 Presidential bid! I smell a rat, and it stinks. Bob

That is true. He is a liar. Had he changed parties in 1984 then it would be a true statement but since he was a full Democrats and wanted Al Gore to win the Presidency then it is a bold face lie.....I am not surprised though.

Did he really say that today? Do you have a link?

If he did, that's just an out and out lie (okay, misrepresentation of the truth). You don't become Al Gore's main guy in Texas in 1988 if that's true. Something isn't right here.

I heard the same thing from a friend on Facebook too. He was really shocked Perry said that.

Reagan couldn’t have influenced him in ways that motivated his decision later on down the road?
