For all those who call Perry a RINO, etc,,, the fact that Rove is trying to take him down, is absolute concrete evidence that many here have been wrong about Perry the whole time.
Perry will surprise a lot if cynical people on this forum.
I would have thought the fact that Sarah Palin enthusiastically endorsed and supported him for GOverno of Texas would have proven he wasn't a RINO. Sarah isn't in the habit of endorsing RINOs, if you ignore McCain, which Palin supporters tell us repeatedly we are supposed to ignore.
I can't think of any other person that would be considered a "RINO" that Palin has ever endorsed and supported.
And since most of what is held against Perry is things he did that were well-known prior to his last election, it is clear that Palin didn't think those things made him a RINO.
That they don't like each other, is just proof that they don't like each other.
I don't think Hillary and Obama are best friends either, but it doesn't make either of them a conservative or even a moderate.
