As I said in my priot post, for two weeks we’ve heard that having allegations of sexual harrassment against you is a great boost to a campaign. SO anything is possible.
If nothing else, maybe Perry will be more entertaining now.
The author has no perspective. No one has accused Perry of years of morally reprehensible behavior because of a gaffe. And on the flip side when a bunch of women accuse you of sexual harrassment you can't just say "oops" and laugh it off.
Perry basically lived out the onstage-in-your-underwear nightmare last night”
Almost...need to add detail that the elastic band on the underwear went bad all of a sudden.
Funny, that's what the black knight said when he was down to no appendages.
Personally, I think this is an ingenious rope-a-dope strategy by Perry.....
"Mr. Churchill, you admit that Mr. Attlee is a humble man?"
"He is a humble man, but then he has much to be humble about!"
Good to know. I certainly detected a liberal bias from a publication that has "business" in its title.
I do not agree with what I see as the intent of the article and I am not a Perry supporter.
However, I felt his pain while watching him go through that brain freeze. It happens to the best of public speakers.
I already didn’t plan on voting for him, but for other reasons, and this single event would not have be used by me to eliminate him, if I were a supporter.
Come off as a bumbling idiot...brilliant! He’s got the voters right where he wants them.
Is that much different than “I never saw that woman before that I met last month and spoke with, and I’ve got a perfect memory”?
OK, for extra credit - without using the internet, which other candidate had such a bad freeze-up in THIS YEARs debates that it was national news?
“All I know is People at FR are intelligent -—”
and I agree!
If Perry had said -— who turned off my teleprompter.... or... so this is why obama uses a teleprompter .... or some such we would be talking about how quick on his feet he is.
Instead we “R’s” are soooo busy eating him up.
I thought Romney showed better last night, but....
I keep going back to Newt Gingrich - my opinion - he is the only one who really knows what is and has being going on in Washington and CAN make changes. My opinion -
....”While the media froths over this all too human moment, we thought we would take this opportunity to ask your help in doing something much more constructive: write us to let us know what federal agency you would most like to forget.”...

And for extra extra credit, who can name another well-known politician who had a major freeze-up in a debate last year, and many said that candidate was a goner.
It's his strategy to connect with the majority of voters.
Tis only a flesh wound
Right, “Y’all join us for a hayride on this lovely wagon ... and don’t bother noticing there is nothing to pull the wagon.”
There are about 20 FR posts about this gaffe.
And the usual anti-Perry posters are running around making as many nasty, insulting comments as possible.
The pile on at FR on a conservative is sad.
The question is, when Herb Cain goes down, is how will the other posters react? Giddy puking glee like the anti-Perrys?
No magritte, there is a double standard.
