Lol@comparing himself to a popular football player. Inane pandering.
I loved it when he talked about Tebow! Hopefully, he will be the Tebow of the candidates!
I thought it was a pretty good moment for Perry. But the author stating that he might instead be “the Trent Dilfer” of the caucuses — ouch, that hurts.
I am a Newt supporter but I do believe Perry is a good man. He also mentioned something about going after Newt on consulting when they should be going after CONGRESS. He appeared to be more of a uniter tonight and I liked that
But unfortunately, he’s actually the Jim Everett of this campaign...i.e., falling down without anybody sacking him.
Well, I’ve read through the 21 postings on this thread and I have to say that most of the comments show a complete misunderstanding of Perry’s mention of Tebow.
He was posing an analogy, not saying he wanted to be like Tebow or expousing anything regarding religion.
He alluded to how Tebow was not considered to have the right mechanics for passing the football, vs. himself, who has been considered to not have debate skills.
He alluded to how Tebow was successful in winning championships in college, vs. himself, who has been very successful as Governor of Texas.
He alluded to Tebow being able to show success at the next higher level of his chosen career, the NFL, vs. himself, who would like to show he can be successful as POTUS.
