I haven’t been able to watch any of the debates, but have a general picture of how they went thanks to FR and other sources. Too bad Perry so badly muffed the early part of his campaign, because I was really hoping he’d be the person most Republicans (moderates and conservatives) could rally around. Now it’s probably too late for him to recover. Sad that Romney and Cain might be our only viable choices come time to vote in the primaries. Sigh.

The problem here is Perry's rhetoric here does not match his record. Here is what Palin had to say about Perry's record

Take heart. Perry has never lost. Don’t count him out.
