I expect a lot of voters will give the fact that Rick Perry served 5 years in the Air Force flying C-130s some consideration when they look at the entire picture.
I love Perry’s service but he merely does Willard a big favor by bleeding off 6% (nationally) of the conservative vote from Newt and Santorum.
What good does it do to split any of the conservative vote three ways and allow the Massachusetts moderate liberal to win SC and FL?
It’s not rocket science, mam.
I agree that Perry’s military record will score a lot of points with voters in the south. Wouldn’t hurt for him to introduce his cotton farmer mom and dad to the national audience either. Perry has so much going for him, he just needs to get it out there — and he will.
