I saw that video. Let's be accurate. She did get choked up and had to stop and regain her composure as she spoke about her grandfather but she didn't "break into tears".
She paints her husband as a “victim” of GOP and media abuse.

Stay around the Perrys very long and you know who wears the pants in that family. Ricky-boy is so “whipped”. And, btw, Anita; did you see the friggin’ debates? Your husband is the victim of his own ineptness, narcissism and stupidity. Now, you two mosey on back to Texas and shut your ignorant mouths before you embarrass our State any more than you already have.
Anita is a step away from joining the OWS’ers.
Rick Perry appears to be a decent human being who loves his wife, the State of Texas and the US.
Anita Perry did not help his candidacy for POTUS.
The MSNBC author is a random blogger with an axe to grind.
Anita Perry did not whine, she came off as genuine and sweet ,
a typical Southern lady talking about her Christian faith.
She choked up talking about her grandfather
taking her to church as a child.
The left always feels threatened by Southern women.
I don’t know if it’s their accents or demeanor or graciousness that sets them off.
Anita would be a wonderful First Lady .
The premise of the article is, if she gets upset by attacks on her husband, maybe she wants the Presidency even more than he does.
This is a ridiculous premise, and I utterly reject it.
What is obviously true...all mind reading and motive impugning aside...is that the severe critique of her husband has gotten to her, and she engaged in a bit of self pity (for him, not her, but he and she are husband/wife) and motive impugning, herself.
I hope she learns from what this has caused her husband to have to do on her behalf, on this day of all days when his story was the rollout of his energy economy jobs plan.
I sympathize with Anita Perry’s feelings towards her husband and his campaign troubles, but her subjective feelings as his wife isn’t where the focus should be, and can only cause him additional troubles.
Again, issue has nothing to do with “how much she wants the Presidency”, per the article...
She pulled a Reverse Muskie.
Not good.
