After weeks (months?) of bad debate reviews, plunging poll numbers, and Herman Cain sucking up all the oxygen in the GOP race, weve noticed Rick Perry has managed to seize the spotlight - and to some extent drive the news cycle - over the past several days.
So far this week, Perry has:
* Drawn attention for seeming to revive the Obama birther controversy in interviews...
* Released a 20-20 tax plan, calling for an optional 20 percent flat tax on income and a 20 percent corporate tax..
* Hired a slew of new advisors with deep experience in presidential campaigns.
* Launched his first TV ads in Iowa - with a positive ad touting his jobs record in Texas.
* Landed some actual hits on Mitt Romney..
....And Perry will get more even exposure this Sunday, when he will appear for the full hour on Fox News Sunday - making his Sunday show debut, and his longest TV interview to date.

Yippeee Keye Yeah...
Rick Perry is bound and determined to help Romney get the nomination now.
FYI..they’ve already issued a clarification. It’s NOT for the full hour..maybe 25 minutes, they’ll still have the usual panel in the second half of the show..
Hmmmm... Why does the lame stream media want the race to be between Milt “RomneyCare” Romney and Ricardo “In-state tuition” Perry? Scared of Mr. Cain and the threat he poses to Mr. Obama? Scared of Speaker Gingrich and his debating skills? Scared that the Tea Party will draft Governor Palin? All three?
Most attractive pics of Perry.
Brilliant campaign strategy!
How about some pics with him and the family sitting on hay bales?
IF you'd rather NOT be pinged FReepmail me.
IF you'd like to be added FReepmail me. Thanks.

Thanks for the updated info.
Too bad. He’d be good for the entire hour.
Maybe he can do a sit-down hour with another program.
"* Released a 20-20 tax plan" ===> too complicated, twice
as much as 9-9-9, leaves the old in place, but still
better than the anything from the Tyrant Zero.
"* Landed some actual hits on Mitt Romney." ==> Maybe,
Perry has not followed up with info from the Romney
Belmont sanctuary in several years, .... yet.

He walked back the Obama BC issue. Said he was joking.
Wow...you guys are slowing down. It took a whole 4 posts for the anti-Perry a-hole brigade to find this thread.
Next month Cain and Gingrich are having their own little two man show/debate/discussion, in of all places ..Texas.. ( shamelessly pimping my tag line here)..if Perry’s really committed to staging a comeback, I think he should try and crash the party...
Not unheard of...McCain at one point was limping and left for dead. no money, advisors jumpin ship...yet he prevailed.
never mind Romney was imploding\exploding at the same time.
Here's one of Rick and Anita Perry dove hunting:
anti-Perry...guess there are a WHOLE lot of us based on La Raza Rick’s polling numbers.
Perry was invited, and turned it down.
