Never said it was required, but it does help win. And republican’s are tired of putting up people for debates that can’t make the conservative case for us. Newt clearly has the best chance to make the conservative case in a debate. But Perry is definitely better 1:1 and with crowds. So this could be interesting. Maybe Perry for VP. That would be interesting seeing him debate Biden.
Any opponent of Obamugabe is a friend of mine. I will not bad-mouth any true opponent of the fraudulent weasel in the WH.
