A friend who is a close confidant of Gov Perry, and who is one of the most intelligent, successful and considered people I know, says Perry is extremely smart.
Its such a shame that some folks are fooled by the best debaters in the room and don’t really listen to those that might not come across as slick.
It seems no one picks a candidate by their records anymore. No one looks at values and strong leadership qualitites in fighting for conservative pinciples over the years.
Instead they have been only paying atention to those with either no record or a record of liberalism or one with a very distubing past. But those candidates sound so good and tell you what you want to hear right this minute and thats all that counts to them.
Some folks will never learn.
