Charles Krausthammer had, what I think is a very good point in regards to Rick Perry. Perry’s problem is that he was a governor from Texas and that’s all he was.
He knows Texas through and through, but he never gave much thought in regards to national issues or international issues and his provincialism is hurting him.
Umm No!
We share an international border an we are the 15th largest economy in the WORLD
Yes, Charles K. says a lot of things. LOL
He knows Texas through and through, but he never gave much thought in regards to national issues or international issues and his provincialism is hurting him.
Wasn't Krauthammer recently ga-ga over Chris Christie, whose bredth of experience is one year as NJ governor, and a background as a Federal attorney?
Perry's problem has been he only knows Texas politics and how National Politics affects Texas.
Let's be real, when Perry first came out he shot to the top as a tough talking Texas governor. He held it for a month and people expected him to bring that to the debates. When he bombed in the Florida debate, people became afraid he would bomb nationally and began looking elsewhere. His "don't have a heart" comment hurt him too as did Romney's bs claim about instate tuition.
It's been a month since his implosion, the lines have stabilized with Cain and Romney at around 25% and Newt and Perry around 10%.
Now Perry has come out with tax and jobs plans and he is starting to spend his 15 million.
In 1 month I expect polls to be very different.
I’ll say it again, Texas is the model for supply side economics and small government for large, diverse populations.
