Perry could have framed it just like that. “I thought it was a mistake but the will of the people as expressed through the legislature...”
That’s how I see it anyway.
I agree with you on Romney. It’s one of the many reasons he will never have my vote.
Perry and the legislature both think this is the right course for Texas. He would be lying if he said he didn't support it. Santorum, perched in DC, thinks that he knows better than Texans.
