Like Romney, the majority of Perry's donations are from big business and special interest looking for favors. Assuming the typical one-time donation from a private citizen is $100 (probably high), Perry got $2 million from private citizens and $15 million from special interests.

That’s actually false, what you just said. Part of what is amazing about Perry raising $17 million in 49 days is the number of individual contributors. Over 20,000 unique donors. OOPS!

That's all speculation on your part, unless you can back it up with data.

This wouldn't bother me even if you prove it up. Big business is sitting on trillions of dollars, waiting for a president they can count on for a better regulatory climate and low taxes.

That sounds just like RICK PERRY, brothers and sisters!
