I don't think Perry will cave in on this one.
I could be wrong, though. I've mis-read Perry before.
I’ve misread Perry in the past myself.
But if he caves on this, I’ll be surprised. The only thing I have read is that a stay would only be issued upon the orders of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles.
There is so much bad blood between Obama and Perry, Obama’s involvement most likely makes Perry dig in his heels.
