“Perry couldn’t explain the reasons behind some of his policies well enough to convince me that they were soundly-reasoned — not because he might have a moment of forgetfulness.”
They’re not soundly reasoned because he’s a moron. As they say, “politics is show business for ugly people.” Silly Perry forgets his lines.
I’m sorry if your candidate, if you have one, doesn’t give you enough wonderful things to talk about that you feel you have to waste your time trashing a dead candidate for him or her.
